Florida man says he had sex with stolen pool toys instead of raping women


A Florida burglary suspect told police that he’s stolen a number of inflatable pool toys so he could have sex with them instead of raping women, a report said.

The suspect, 35-year-old Christopher William Monnin, allegedly broke into a number of homes in the city of Palm Bay in Brevard County that have private pools and stole the inflatables, the Miami Herald reported, citing a police report from the sheriff’s office.

The “defendant stated that he sexually gratifies himself with the pool floats instead of raping women,” an arrest report for Monnin read, according to the Herald.

There have been at least 13 burglaries reported in the area in which inflatable pool toys were stolen, according to the report. Monnin is suspected in all of the thefts, the Herald reported.

Or is there some sort of "thrill of the chase" involved with stealing?

Creepy, but relatively harmless, at least.

I wouldn't want to look out my window to see some weirdo having his way with my pool toys, right there in my back yard.

relatively benign ones. At least human beings aren't being harmed. Still, kind of strange. But I would rather have him doing this than harming actual, real women.
