You got some splainin' to do:

According to the Farmington Police Department, an officer was called to a home on the south side of town at about 6 p.m. Wednesday. The homeowner said he had arrived home from work about an hour earlier. Just before 6 p.m. he went downstairs and heard a noise coming from a room. When he looked in the room he saw a woman he didn’t recognize. He told police he got the woman’s attention, at which time she ran out of the house.

The responding police officer went to the room where the woman had been found. He found a working meth lab in operation. He immediately had the homeowner and some children in the home leave the residence until a police detective could be called. The detective, Sgt. Jeff Crites, arrived a few minutes later and shut down the lab so it was no longer volatile. He then called the Mineral Area Drug Task Force.

Police reports show Crites and task force members took samples from the lab for evidence, then dismantled the equipment per standard practice. While working in the room the officers found identification left behind by the mystery woman which gave more than one clue to her identity.

Officers then spoke with the homeowner’s wife. A short time into the interview she admitted to the agents and detective that she let the woman into the home.

The woman, not identified at this time pending formal charges, was arrested and processed.

He's lucky he didn't come home to a house in smoking ruins. I don't know if any of the children in the house were the wife's, but if they were, they aren't any longer.
