Japanese man became aware of her presence when food began vanishing
A year? Holy crap! So how long could someone live undetected in your home? I'm guessing a few hours at most in my place (I don't have any closets to hide in!)
"A homeless woman who sneaked into a man's house and lived undetected in his closet for a year was arrested in Japan after he became suspicious when food mysteriously began disappearing."
He became suspicious after a year?? What was she eating all that time?

what a great story. Someday I hope to reach for a blouse and find a wizened old man instead! Maybe if the person cleaned I could pretend for alot longer not to notice....

so
if all she stole was food
and all she did was stay warm and safe, does she have to face so many charges?

What charges are "so many"? The article says she was arrested but doesn't say what the charges are.

Police found the 58-year-old woman Thursday hiding in the top compartment of the man's closet and arrested her for trespassing, police spokesman Hiroki Itakura from southern Kasuya town said Friday!)
Tresspassing. She seems a gentle soul, though.

We should start this program in America!
Well drop a bunch of homeless people off in a rich area and tell them;
"Ok now, All you guys try to sneak into some rich persons house undetected. Only come out for food and showers. Whoever doesn't make it.....well meet you here next week at the same time."

Less than a week after the family dog died, my teenage stepson managed to smuggle a runaway female into his bedrom.
She remained undetected for about 18 hours.

This happened in Japan. It's possible the two will just bow to each other, and a judge will bow to both, the two will bow to the judge, and that will be all. I think we see this story from a westerners viewpoint.

How big was the top compartment for her to go undetected? This guy must have hardly been at home - I can't imagine it going undetected.
