Death at Seattle encampment raises questions about addressing homelessness in region FOX13
Her death is considered an example of a broken support system for some of the region’s most vulnerable residents. However, a regionwide plan to address the homeless crisis remains a tough sell for local governments.
"We don’t really walk around after night in this particular part of SLU," said one man who lives in a nearby apartment. "There’s just garbage that kind of spills out everywhere over the road. The homeless population that have kind of congregated here, and they go through our recycling and our trash bins, dumpsters."
"A lot of police, a lot of the fire department goes next door. Sometimes it can be at least four to five times a day," said one woman who lives next to the encampment. "But it’s daily. But it’s like when we do call them and tell them something, they don’t do anything. So, the people that are doing the damages are just getting away with it."
