Not sure, but I think Sherman and his wife lived in a McMansion about 45 minutes south of Redmond out in the country more. But yeah - he might have still been paying for it.
I got a kick out of the one article that described “the free agent is now in jail...”

Above is a local reporter doing his best with the confusing events. Hard to tell from the reporting the timeline. His wife called 911 from their home that is south of Redmond and said he was drunk and angry.
I think then he drove north to Redmond and crashed his car at a construction site.
Then he ended up at his in-laws house in Redmond. Hard to tell if the crash was close to his in-laws, but it could have been within walking distance.
That is where he ended up getting arrested. I’m guessing he was still drunk and angry and they called the cops. He didn’t listen to the cops and tried walking/jogging away and the cops stopped him.
The MIL said later “We love Richard, and he is welcome in our home always.”
