Case of Portland home intruder suspect Terri Zinzer highlights the challenge of civil commitment
PORTLAND, Ore. — Terri Zinzer is a homeless woman who suffers from some form of mental illness. She's been repeatedly accused of committing crimes over the last few years, landing her in and out of the Oregon justice system like a revolving door.
Troubling though Zinzer's case may be due to her alleged activities — and the potential danger they pose to both herself and others — it's not clear that her case is particularly unique. Instead, it's a perfect example of how things can go wrong at the intersection of criminal justice and mental health.
Zinzer first appeared on KGW's radar in mid-September, when she allegedly let herself into a Portland family's home and curled up on their child's empty bed. At the time, the Multnomah County District Attorney said he would not press charges against her, saying that she needed mental health treatment but was refusing to get it. She was not jailed for long.
