I think I would have tried to find a staff member before he even got all the way down the tree. I don't know if I'd feel good about having that footage in my phone.

 

"Machado had struggled with mental health issues throughout his life, and his mother had also been diagnosed with schizophrenia, according to Correio, which cited child welfare counselor Verônica Oliveira, who had been monitoring him since childhood."

 

So, one nut raised another nut.
