More Senseless Violence On The Homeless

The AP reported yesterday about a homeless woman’s body being found on a small street in Venice, California. They don’t know who she is or what happened.

If this had happened in Skid Row, it would have made the LA Times. But the reality in Los Angeles County is that homelessness occurs all over the region. So violence in Skid Row is just a reflection of the reality on the streets all over the county—if you’re homeless in Los Angeles, you are at risk of being violated.

I wonder how many homeless deaths would it take before our community says, “Enough is enough!”? (And I certainly hope this is not another “teen beating.”)

Here is the AP article.
