Cristian Rodrigo Montecino Sanzana was arrested in Miami Beach on April 27, 2025, in connection with the theft of Kristi Noem's purse worth $3,000. The purse contained cash, identification, and a Homeland Security badge, which was stolen during a family dinner on Easter Sunday. After police observed Montecino at a Walgreens, he was arrested for possessing a stolen driver's license. Another suspect, Mario E. Bustamante Leiva, is also connected to the theft and linked to other similar crimes in Washington.
"He is facing a charge of possession of a stolen driver's license, and as of now, it remains unclear if he will face charges specifically related to the purse theft."
"According to officials, another suspect linked to the theft was captured in Washington D.C., raising concerns about a pattern of thefts in high-end restaurants."
