I don't know the circumstances, but compared to armed robbery or smash and grabs or some really desperate crime, this seems more entrepreneurial, like "hey there's still some copper in the abandoned mine". And it's essentially a victimless crime - it seems like there might be some conservation implications, like they disturbed a bat nest (which could also lead to histoplasmosis), but not the same as property crime, more like illegally cutting down a couple trees deep in the forest. All that to say, desperation may be an element, but the sophistication required indicates there's probably more to it than than. And making someone go to jail for 30 days for this is just stupid
