A polite intruder gave $200 to the owners of a New Mexico home as a "reimbursement" for the window he broke when forcing his way in, according to a Santa Fe County Sheriff's Office report, per the Albuquerque Journal.

The man, later identified as 34-year-old Teral Christesson, slept, drank beer, ate shrimp, and bathed inside the Santa Fe property last Sunday morning, police said, per The Santa Fe New Mexican.

When the homeowners returned to the property in the afternoon, the media outlet added, they found Christesson in their house with a duffel bag and an AR-15 scoped rifle.

The homeowners reportedly told police that the suspected burglar was "extremely embarrassed and apologetic" when confronted by them.

Before Christesson vacated the property, the Alberquerque Journal reported that he placed $200 on a living room chair as a "reimbursement for the window he broke."

He then picked up his gun and bag and left, the media outlet said.

The Santa Fe New Mexican reported that police found Christesson on Monday near a fast-food restaurant after responding to a report of a man attempting to hijack a car. In custody, he told investigators he "felt bad" about breaking the window, the media outlet said.

Christesson was booked into the Santa Fe County jail on charges of aggravated burglary, larceny, and criminal damage to a property linked to the Sunday break-in.

Now there's a case to divert to drug or mental health court. But nope, gun involved... especially the dreaded "AR 15".

I'd like to see more adjudication of mental health cases before they end up in prison.

Another article mentioned this right at the end with no additional context:


The suspect also shared a bit of his story, telling the owners he was running from someone and that his family had been killed in east Texas,

What!? :lol: Drugs, mental illness, or the plot of a really good thriller movie?
