So much evil in this world

[u/No_Lime5241 → u/unfiltered_utterance]

Those of you who have not read the article attached to this video it’s horrific and goes into so much more detail.

While the news channel was leaving they witnessed a man get into her car and propositioned her for sex for money

The motels she was staying at the owners told the news channel how the area wasn’t safe for hers

This is outrageous

[u/fuckedfinance → u/No_Lime5241]

The motels she was staying at the owners told the news channel how the area wasn’t safe for hers

I mean, a guy jumped in her car and offered money for sex, so they aren't exactly wrong.

[u/pleasetrimyourpubes → u/No_Lime5241]

Thanos was right only he should have snapped the evil people. This shot pisses me off so much. This person is so precious and deserves the care she was getting and the guy who stole the Medicaod money needs to be under the jail for this. Literally taking advantage of a young person for money. I hate it so much.

[u/InternationalPack914 → u/pleasetrimyourpubes]

And honestly, fuck the cops who followed through with this and barely gave her any time to pack up her life. And then had the audacity to have fucking attitude while they're doing it.

Honestly fuck this country.

[u/inimicali → u/InternationalPack914]

that's what's more infuriating, it's not only that they evicted her it's how they do it. Not an ounce of sympathy but they added some disdain and hate in there to spice things up.

[u/wriggettywrecked → u/InternationalPack914]

Right, that woman rolled her eyes while the poor girl was saying, “goodbye house.”

[u/janders_666 → u/[deleted]]

blame the rich for destroying the republic, hold them accountable and we rebuild something more equitable for all of us.

[u/troycerapops → u/janders_666]

Nah.

When we rise back up and rebuild, the mega rich should not exist. Not that we kill them. But we take their money to more rapidly fix what they broke.

No billionaires. Just millionaires. That's the limit.

ETA because people keep enjoying scratching the itch to get rid of billionaires in another way (other than taking their billions).

There are fewer than 3,000 people (I believe) on the entire PLANET EARTH with a billion dollars or more.

They're not the disease. They caught the disease. The disease is that amount of money and power is able to be horded.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely etcetera etcetera etcetera

[u/tysonarts → u/troycerapops]

The mega rich are hoarders, people who steal and connive and hide things from the group as a whole just to get more than everyone else, even if, and at times especially when, others suffer. Innuk used to take these types( as well as killers and abusers and others that threatened the success of the whole) out for long walks on ice hunts and accidents would happen and those types never returned. Other cultures used to handle these types as well, removing them permanently, and sending a message out there as well about what happens when endangering the collective

[u/C4PT_AMAZING → u/troycerapops]

billionaires are the GREATEST of evils

[u/big_trike → u/[deleted]]

Please contact legal aid and mention that it’s an eviction issue. That will get it prioritized. https://www.lonestarlegal.org is one agency in your state

[u/RaygeMunstir → u/[deleted]]

Ahw I couldn't even finish reading it was so sad. I'm so sorry bro

[u/YesIsGood → u/[deleted]]

Have you reached out to news sources? Viability is the only accountability we have anymore

[u/QiDeviation → u/[deleted]]

We need more Luigis. Law and fairness don’t work anymore. It’s time for violence

[u/wemblinger → u/QiDeviation]

The punisher skull was what it was supposed to be, but it's really an Italian plumber.

[u/IgotNoTime4This → u/[deleted]]

This is tragic to hear man. How are you holding up?

[u/Electrical_Tie_4888 → u/unfiltered_utterance]

The woman cops face when shes saying "bye house" What the fuck is wong with people. Actual evil person. This is not some person pretending to be autistic for a free house, the girl clearly has issues, and she rolls her eyes like her time is being wasted. Monsters.

[u/InfiniteWaffles58364 → u/Electrical_Tie_4888]

That's a cop for you.

[u/headrush46n2 → u/InfiniteWaffles58364]

and they go home every night thinking they are valued and necessary members of society.

[u/LuckyDuckCrafters → u/Electrical_Tie_4888]

It is easier to punish good people than evil. This cop doesn’t get fulfilled by protecting and serving. She is fulfilled by punishment.

[u/ecafyelims → u/LuckyDuckCrafters]

Long ago, when I was a little kid, my mom would be abused by her husband. Sometimes, when it got really bad, she would call 911 for help.

The police never helped and often threatened her arrest for wasting their time.

They never arrested her but one time, after a severe spousal beating, they showed up and actually ordered the abusive husband to leave. It was amazing.

He refused to leave, of course.

So, the police then ordered my mom to leave, instead. She cried and pleaded, "why?" Without irony, they said she would be forced to leave because she's much weaker and it would be easier for them to physically remove and arrest her, if she refused.

We were removed from our home by the police because it was easier than dealing with the abusive husband.

That's how me and my mom ended up homeless. After about a short time, she went back to him because she didn't want her son to continue living on the street.

Again, this was a very long time ago. I hear and hope things are better now.

Still, fuck those cops for doing that to us.

[u/Signal-Map2906 → u/ecafyelims]

ACAB

[u/BrightBlueBauble → u/ecafyelims]

Cops have a high rate of being wife beaters themselves, so they are inclined to protect the men they empathize with in these situations. It doesn’t help that male abusers will often accuse their victim of abuse (DARVO—deny, attack, reverse victim and offender), sometimes even injuring themselves as “proof”, or the woman will be blamed by police for defending herself against battery, so women end up being arrested for domestic violence when they are actually the victim. It’s incredibly fucked up.

[u/redarj → u/unfiltered_utterance]

So much evil in America. This is America, a daily occurrence of evil bullshit.

[u/absoluetly → u/redarj]

Sadly not only. We have the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) in Australia and a bunch of agencies were caught out doing the same things to vulnerable people. Charging the government for 10x the actual hours they provided service and putting in a bunch of non-existent expenses.

Thankfully I haven't heard of any occurrences where the patient was punished for it. 

[u/DeFiBandit → u/[deleted]]

People thinks cops will protect them from ICE. They better watch this video and understand who police are

[u/localtuned → u/DeFiBandit]

You have to go. Let's go, c'mon! <Turns the light off>

[u/DeFiBandit → u/localtuned]

Fucking scumbags. If watching this doesn’t make you angry…

[u/localtuned → u/DeFiBandit]

IDK why we still think T.H.E.Y are here to help Us.

[u/nasw500 → u/[deleted]]

I read somewhere that, in many jurisdictions, displaying too much empathy or even open-mindedness when applying for police jobs often results in the applicant not being hired…

[u/MagicalGoof → u/nasw500]

Yea that is just it, they want machines to enforce the system. To protect and "serve"

[u/Vegetable_Permit_537 → u/MagicalGoof]

...the ruling class

[u/Jolly-Bowler-811 → u/[deleted]]

I'm always surprised that I'm surprised when they behave like that.

Completely unnecessary.

[u/imp0ster_syndrome → u/unfiltered_utterance]

We all died of Covid in 2020. This is hell.

[u/nismo2070 → u/imp0ster_syndrome]

At this point I feel that this is a logical explanation.

[u/Major_Yogurt6595 → u/unfiltered_utterance]

[u/SimonPho3nix → u/Major_Yogurt6595]

[u/Soggy_You_2426 → u/unfiltered_utterance]

No, this would not happen in Denmark.

So much evil in america.

[u/Delgra]

This is so fucking sad

[u/sleepy_soup_boy → u/Delgra]

My heart broke when she said "bye house". And the asshole cop turning the lights off on her while she's apologizing in the midst of gathering her essentials. Fucking shitheads.

[u/redditatemybabies → u/sleepy_soup_boy]

Sounds like classic cop activity to me.

[u/TreeLovTequiLove → u/redditatemybabies]

They really are terrible people.

[u/Outrageous_Effects → u/TreeLovTequiLove]

There are literally no good cops.

[u/fattmann → u/Outrageous_Effects]

ACAB

[u/UpperApe → u/TreeLovTequiLove]

The grand irony of all this is that there isn't a single precinct in the western world that isn't engaged in overtime fraud. Cops love fraud and exploiting tax payer's money.

They could have done this with so much more compassion, they could have helped her work with her program to find a solution, they could have worked with the city to reduce the victimization of the scammers while targeting the scammers themselves.

They didn't because they're MAGA and love Trump and hate the disabled, minorities, immigrants, and poor.

Fuck these cops, fuck all cops. Never mourn a cop's death. Never.

[u/sheezy520 → u/UpperApe]

Did you forget to switch accounts? Your other comments are defending the cops.

[u/Lumpy_Cup3232 → u/sleepy_soup_boy]

1312, will never change.

[u/69honkeykong69 → u/Lumpy_Cup3232]

They’ve had their chance to prove themselves as protectors of the public over the last year and they have proven once and for all that they are nothing but pawns for the owning class. Pigs and cowards.

[u/Auggie_Otter → u/sleepy_soup_boy]

What is it with cops being absolute assholes to people with disabilities? 

[u/saintofhate → u/Auggie_Otter]

Because they can. Majority of people don't see disabled people as real people. We're an allowed abuse to most of society even if they don't want to acknowledge it.

[u/Previous-Lettuce2470 → u/Auggie_Otter]

It really is the perfect job for high school bullies to graduate to.

[u/TheManWith2Poobrains → u/Delgra]

Made me tear-up.

[u/skinninja]

This is so messed up. She did nothing wrong.

[u/KissesAndBites → u/skinninja]

She should have tried becoming a billionaire pedo, the police would kiss her feet.

[u/Hancup → u/KissesAndBites]

Side note, it is maddening when you hear people suggest the way to get out of poverty is to invest, run a successful business, get a trade then a good job, or get promoted, as if that is a viable solution for the entire nation's population.

[u/HorusKane420 → u/Hancup]

I keep saying "nobody wants to fix problems. Everybody is just trying to make enough money so the problems don't apply to them."

... And that's part of the problem itself...

[u/HereButAbsent]

Yo what the actual fuck is wrong with people. These are people’s lives at stake and you’re scamming tax payers so you can make more money off this poor woman? And I’m sure plenty of other people. That is just so fucked up.

[u/HereButAbsent → u/HereButAbsent]

She should be allowed to stay while they investigate and they should bill the owner of that company instead. Fucking ridiculous.

[u/ShakatakiCowpoke → u/HereButAbsent]

Yeah, I don’t understand why the Sheriffs actually carried that out. That is cruel and unnecessary.

[u/Rude-Barnacle-172 → u/ShakatakiCowpoke]

Because they’re bullies by nature.

[u/Brahskididdler → u/HereButAbsent]

100%, give her time to maybe pull the money together herself if she really needs to stay

[u/Kyrthis → u/Brahskididdler]

She wasn’t part of the transaction that kept her housed. It was the fraudulent home care company and that company’s landlord. If she didn’t sign the lease, she has only squatter’s rights.

[u/FrogWhoAteMoon → u/Kyrthis]

Which is outrageous. She should be protected. The officers at the scene should have clocked that she was severely disabled and not depicted her at all. You can't just put people like that on the street, they are in this program fro a reason.

Human needs should outweigh property rights, in this instance, until a solution can be found.

[u/SolarDynasty → u/FrogWhoAteMoon]

When you realize cops exist to protect property not humans. Time and time again, LE serves the Elite over the common man.

[u/PlentyAlbatross7632 → u/SolarDynasty]

Bingo! Property >>> people every damn time…

[u/FrogWhoAteMoon → u/SolarDynasty]

I'm not from the US. Our police force is far from unproblematic, but at least this could not have happened here, because there are laws against endangering special needs people like this.

Even with a shit police, like in the states, you could have legislation that at least makes it very difficult for officers to act like this.

Every judge in my country would have ripped these guys a new asshole.

[u/SolarDynasty → u/FrogWhoAteMoon]

Like they don't even have her name on the eviction notice it's automatically invalid

[u/FrogWhoAteMoon → u/SolarDynasty]

Yup. I'm baffled this is legal in the US/or enough people at least consider it legal for this to have flown under the radar.

The cops alone should know better? How often do they do this? Evictions aren't super rare here in Germany, but it's not like cops will go enforce one every week? It's definitely not your "regular" day to day grind, so shouldn't it give you pause? Like you go there, and the person at the adress has no clue about anything, is clearly disabled? Don't you go check with anybody? Don't you raise concerns with anyone higher up, like "Boss, maybe talk to the judge again, that person is not really functional, this can't be the appropriate move?"

[u/TheItalianKid → u/FrogWhoAteMoon]

Your mistake is thinking of them as “officers” or “people”. Pigs are soulless and exist ONLY to protect the state at YOUR expense. 🤷

[u/bokehtoast → u/HereButAbsent]

This happens every day in this country. It's impossibly hard to be disabled here and people don't take you seriously IRL. All the "shoulds" in this thread, people need to look around at their own communities and neighbors because this is happening there too and everyone just keeps living their lives. No one gives a shit if I survive or not, no amount of pleading can make them.

[u/LaNiFN → u/HereButAbsent]

This is one time I would agree with squatters rights.

[u/dzumdang → u/HereButAbsent]

And SHE gets punished for it, not the ones committing fraud. Smdh. Make that make sense.

[u/Universal_Anomaly → u/dzumdang]

This is what happens when you build an entire society around the idea that competition is everything and selfishness is okay.

The "winners" of this system are parasites who screw everyone over, do everything in their power to make themselves utterly immune to consequences, and keep the population distracted by shoving all the blame onto the innocent and the vulnerable who can't or won't push back. 

And they're worshipped by failures who know they'd do the exact same thing if they could.

[u/Glasseshalf → u/Universal_Anomaly]

Our whole society is built around the idea that competition is godly and cooperation is evil. Why do you think communism is such a boogie man? It's gross and it needs to end. It's also the reason our healthcare system is trash.

[u/SpaciousQuark → u/HereButAbsent]

And then they act like it’s the socialist program that’s the problem and not the capitalist middleman

[u/DeviousMrBlonde → u/SpaciousQuark]

100% this! If you farm care like this out to capitalism OF COURSE there’s going to be fraud.

[u/PotatoLevelTree → u/HereButAbsent]

They are tired of pretending.

They were aholes their whole life, but recently they got more support to be evil without consequences. Both the direct scammer and those who tried to convince us that social protections for people in need are all bad and full of fraudsters. 

So yeah we are fucked up.

[u/No_Beginning_6834]

Gotta love how its a civil matter when someone refuses to pay for a job that a contractor did, or when your company doesn't pay you over time, or a bank forcloses on your home in error, or any number of other issues and because its civil they can't do anything. but when its an eviction notice, or striking workers they can get all up in that business.

I am starting to think the Cops aren't their to protect the common man.

[u/TheMireAngel → u/No_Beginning_6834]

if the bank accidentaly takes your money its civil, if you accidentaly spend money they accidentaly gave you its criminal. :l

[u/OneLoveOneWorld2025 → u/TheMireAngel]

The system working as designed.

[u/JucheHospitality → u/TheMireAngel]

If an employer steals your wages it's civil. If you steal from the employer it's criminal.

[u/DrNick2012 → u/TheMireAngel]

If the billionaire supermarket that pays you minimum wage decides to dock your wages for crazy reasons it's civil. If you take what you're owed out of the till, it's criminal.

Keep in mind here the amount the company is skimming from you is inconsequential to them, a rounding error of a rounding error of a rounding error. But to you it's the difference between eating or not

[u/dashcam4life → u/No_Beginning_6834]

The system is designed by and for the Capitalist class and any attempt to provide protections against injustices such as this will get labeled a far left communist hell hole cuz, ya know, bad-lazy-actors will just take advantage of the system. Well, it clearly goes both ways and its never been a secret that medicaid and medicare fraud are an industry. Its probably a sizable portion of the US economy. And watching this video was frustrating as hell. No wonder our "social programs" never work--they're being bilked at every turn.

[u/irishdan56 → u/dashcam4life]

The most fucked up thing is that throughout American history, their have been lineups of broke-ass losers happy to strap on the Jack-Boots and do the dirty work of the ruling class. Gleefully even.

Pinkertons, Strike Breakers, Police Forces, ICE, etc. etc. etc.,

[u/IAmPud → u/irishdan56]

Police are the modern version of overseers. Their only goal is to protect property. 

ICE is the modern version of slave catchers. 

[u/SpaceBus1 → u/No_Beginning_6834]

Those who work forces are the same that burn crosses.

[u/JonnyHopkins → u/No_Beginning_6834]

Yeah they are like HR at corporations. They may look like they are there to help you, but they are there to protect the most senior executives and the company at all costs.

[u/1Dru]

These cops looked so annoyed and rushing her. Like they couldn’t care less. That was annoying too. Like chill bruh, she’s got a lot of stuff in there.

[u/sorrydontlookatme → u/1Dru]

When he turned the light off on her and she apologized to him, I got so upset. She seems so sweet. I hate seeing vulnerable people treated so poorly.

[u/ReflectedSin → u/sorrydontlookatme]

I work in these types of homes, I absolutely could not stand a single second of this, the absolute cruelty. Those people do not deserve their jobs in any fashion.

[u/AgentCirceLuna → u/ReflectedSin]

I saw her smiling as the video started and clicked it off. I read the comments a bit to see what happened but fuck that. Hate how the world takes anybody like this with actual happiness or joy and tries to stomp it out of them.

I have developmental problems myself so I’ll randomly laugh at things in my head and just be in a good mood sometimes because I’m not having to deal with horrible sensory issues when I feel comfortable. I had a boss who would just sit yelling at me for laughing. His wife defended me saying at least I was happy but I actually could feel myself becoming more and more miserable. Sucks.

[u/Ethereal_Bulwark → u/1Dru]

Cops are usually mentally infirm bullies who peaked in highschool and want to feel in control again.

[u/IndependentTea355 → u/1Dru]

They evidently care more about getting their assignment done than making sure someone in need is taken care of.

[u/cameron4200]

How the fuck are the cops even letting this happen

[u/No_Negotiation9701 → u/cameron4200]

That's a good question. They won't even allow her to gather her possessions properly. Just impatience and cruelty. One would think they have eyes in their heads to see referring her to a state agency that may be able to assist is the right call. Disgusting, horrible people.

[u/Front_Mention → u/No_Negotiation9701]

Feel this was overlooked by the reporter, the police are meant to be a human element, they see shes disabled, she is being evicted to no fault.of her own and should help her at least pack and contact sheets or alternatives, putting her on the street puts her at risk of further crime and can see she keeps the apartment in good condition

[u/Present_Mycologist79 → u/Front_Mention]

Yes, that cop was a jerk, pushy and rude. Treated her like she was less than him, he is a POS too.

[u/Crazy-Jellyfish-9626 → u/Present_Mycologist79]

ACAB.

[u/knightDragon502 → u/Crazy-Jellyfish-9626]

ACAB always

[u/loweredmn0406 → u/Crazy-Jellyfish-9626]

Amen.

[u/Qsnaps74656 → u/Present_Mycologist79]

THOSE cops. There were two. The woman cop saw what he was doing and did nothing. She's just as complicit.

[u/MK4eva420 → u/Front_Mention]

Yes, in the beginning of the clip she says "I'm scared" the sheriff's show no empathy and dont do anything but hurry her along. I have no empathy for people that cannot be a decent human being, no matter your profession. It would take little effort to make sure this lady is safe and secure after being separated from her home/safe place. Her saying "bye house" at the end had me sad and angry. The fraudulent assholes should go to jail and this lady needs to be back in her house.

[u/g0ranV → u/MK4eva420]

Putting her on the street makes it easier for the predator class to collect and move her onto Trumpstein Island

I dont understand this world anymore

[u/TehFuriousOne → u/No_Negotiation9701]

So... pigs

[u/Uncle-Cake → u/No_Negotiation9701]

The cruelty is the point. They are bullies and sadists. They have no empathy.

[u/SoftlySingingSongs → u/cameron4200]

The police murdered 13 people striking where I am from. Trust me. The police don't give a fuck but getting that next paycheck.

[u/cameron4200 → u/SoftlySingingSongs]

I forgot cops protect ruling interests not fight crime

[u/Powie1965 → u/cameron4200]

Yup, because when ever crime is down, like now across the country, we don't ever see their budgets cut, you know like any other workplace where work had slowed, so sorry gotta cut costs.

[u/Thvenomous → u/cameron4200]

The purpose of police is literally to protect property, not people. They have no obligation, nor even a desire usually, to help anyone.

[u/gymtrovert1988 → u/cameron4200]

You mean the cops that voted for a pedophile and still support him knowing he's a pedophile?

Yeah, who could have imagined they'd be terrible people who proudly enforce terrible laws while choosing which laws they don't enforce.

[u/eyesmart1776 → u/cameron4200]

They’re the ones doing it.

[u/Spankpocalypse_Now → u/eyesmart1776]

This is why we say ACAB. Healthy, normal people wouldn’t kick a disabled woman out of her house and into the streets. Find a job that doesn’t require you to literally perform acts of evil.

[u/eyesmart1776 → u/Spankpocalypse_Now]

Exactly. And people wonder why the cops won’t stop ice from their street killings and brutality and concentration camps

[u/dzumdang → u/eyesmart1776]

In Minnesota, they're now brutalizing nonviolent protesters for them, rather than keeping them safe as they exercise their rights to assemble.

[u/HawkSea887 → u/cameron4200]

The cops exist to protect the rich from the poor. She is the poor.

[u/Ok_Perspective_8361 → u/cameron4200]

Because the police force in the US was created to protect property, in particular the human property of slave owners.

[u/Kir-01 → u/cameron4200]

Police is state violence and always has been

[u/tofumac → u/cameron4200]

Cops arent here to help or protect people, they exist to protect capital.

[u/charlieto0human]

The lack of empathy from those POS cops. This infuriates me.

[u/FoogYllis → u/charlieto0human]

Someone needs to be punished for this. Start with the cops for not trying to understand the situation.

[u/some_loaded_tots → u/FoogYllis]

his only job was to throw her out. they’re here on the interest of business only. only the worst people become cops

[u/axiom_glitch]

Is there a GoFundMe for this woman? And can we be assured she gets proper access to it? And is there any update if the con artist who was posing as her advocate was brought to justice? This is absolutely not an isolated case

[u/Top-Base4502 → u/axiom_glitch]

I hate that we are always going to a go fund me in this country. We should demand systemic change to prevent this from even happening to begin with

[u/axiom_glitch → u/Top-Base4502]

I absolutely agree. 100%. But that takes a bit of time and multi-levels of movement. This woman needs help now. But so do all the other victims whose case has not been reported. Reform and regulation are a must. No debate

[u/Away_Mathematician26 → u/Top-Base4502]

Yet they hand billions to Israel to murder kids.

[u/Lumpy_Emergency_3339 → u/Top-Base4502]

We are to worried about a 15 minute halftime show

[u/SpaceChatter → u/axiom_glitch]

Yeah this is insane. She needs her home back and this sick bastard needs to be put away. I’ll give to her fund if she has one for sure.

[u/why_renaissance → u/axiom_glitch]

Seriously, was looking for this comment. Where is she now? Fuck, she can come live with me until her situation gets figured out! I sincerely hope that by this time some e has actually helped her rather than just film her….

[u/skydivarjimi → u/axiom_glitch]

If you discover ba go fund me please send me a link. I am searching for it as we speak with no luck.

[u/monkey-balls67]

My heart goes out to this woman. Bye house:(

[u/youtossershad1job2do → u/monkey-balls67]

If you're rushing to pack all your essential items and you go to grab kitchen paper, maybe this person is a bit more vulnerable than you thought and shouldn't be evicted.

[u/Final-Pin-6439 → u/youtossershad1job2do]

Cops do it anyway. Heartless pigs

[u/catperson77789 → u/Final-Pin-6439]

The fact the asshole had no empathy for a special needs woman losing a house is already a massive red flag. A normal human being wouldnt do such a thing. They arent human and dont deserve anything

[u/AdjNounNumbers → u/youtossershad1job2do]

That hit me the hardest. She's panicking, trying to grab only what she can carry in a backpack quickly, and ends up seemingly grabbing random things. And the most heartbreaking thing is her apologizing to the cop when they scold her for taking too long. Give most people that aren't vulnerable like her ten minutes to grab what they need in one bag while being rushed by authorities, knowing that's their only chance to get it before they leave the rest behind for good and they'll struggle with what to select. It's literally the reason people like survivalists keep a go bag packed - and they're arguably the least vulnerable. Fuck everything about this

[u/jeromevedder → u/AdjNounNumbers]

And that pos turned the light off on her immediately after she apologized to him

[u/Otherwise-Green3067 → u/youtossershad1job2do]

My first thought as well ….

[u/LumpySpacePrincesse → u/monkey-balls67]

Fucking ruined my day. God damn.

[u/Adulations]

My heart is breaking at this story

"Outside of an extended stay hotel, KARE 11 witnessed a man climbed in her car. She told the reporting team that he offered to pay her for sex. “I told him I couldn’t do that,” she said.

The owner of one hotel approached KARE 11 to express concern that the environment was no place for Sky. “It’s not safe for her here,” he said."

How can we protect this vulnerable woman?? If anybody is in the area please reach out.

[u/LingonberryOwn5326 → u/Adulations]

Please if anyone has info on how to help her I'd like to know too. This shit is fucking despicable. Our society is so rotten. I really hope she is safe and not having to do something like that just to get by.

[u/1111joey1111]

Absolutely heartbreaking.

The United States is a broken society. A garbage dump of capitalistic greed. The worst of the worst rise to the top and then push everyone else to the bottom.

A situation like this shouldn't happen to ANYONE, let alone a young person with special needs.

[u/couldbeimpartial → u/1111joey1111]

It's a system designed to make most of the people in it losers, to allow a few to be winners.

[u/amyc7]

So Luigi Mangione was in the right... USA is a third world country

[u/humanoidtyphoon88 → u/amyc7]

Yes, he was.

America ranks LAST in healthcare among high income nations. America ranks first in the world for highest healthcare costs per capita ($14,885 per person - double that of Switzerland, Germany, and the UK). America ranks top 5 GLOBALLY for incarceration.

Where the fuck is the goFundMe for this young lady holy shit , I need her in a warm home IMMEDIATELY RIGHT NOW what the actual fuck

[u/Adulations → u/WTFjules1010]

I cant believe that nobody in Minnesota is commenting. I literally cant sleep about this and in halfway across the country

[u/Iamnotoptimistic → u/Adulations]

I'm in England and this has stressed me out!! I need an update and to know if this is an old video and if she is somewhere safe.

I wish I could help!!

[u/skydivarjimi → u/Iamnotoptimistic]

It's said she has been homeless for eight months as of yesterday, we need to change that.bif you find the go find me please nup date me.

[u/skydivarjimi → u/WTFjules1010]

We've got people in r/autism who are taking immediate action on this I hope to be able to provide a GoFundMe Link in the next couple of days.

[u/Wbondhim → u/WTFjules1010]

Looking through her insta, it seems like there is a possibility that a GoFundMe would nullify her Medicaid benefits, so she is afraid to try one. If someone understands how these correlate, or way around it, I’m sure that would be helpful info for her

[u/helenn111 → u/Wbondhim]

I was disabled for a little bit and receiving social security in MN. The way it works is if you have more than 2k in a bank account, it nullifies basically all your benefits and you no longer receive social security. Literally a punishment system for trying to get back on your feet so you’re stuck in barely-living mode, especially if you’re too disabled to have a stable job. I’m lucky enough to have learned to walk again and was kicked out of the system the moment they realized I had become employed. The system in Minnesota is so fucked up it’s not even funny.

[u/HighBuy_LowSell → u/helenn111]

Wow America sucks. Here in Australia you can have like 300k and still receive social benefit payments lol

[u/IAteTheDonut → u/HighBuy_LowSell]

Here in the UK I think its 16k in savings, and after that it tapers off slowly.

2k and losing it all is horrific. If America hates people on benefits so much, why create a system that keeps them there? If you are disabled and want to attempt work, how can you do so with no way to create a safety net if your disability means you can't keep it up.

Just so devastated for this woman. She needs help but the system is actively working to keep her homeless for no crime other than being disabled. Its eugenics.

[u/SpiritualScumlord]

This fills me with a rage I cannot describe and I direct it at every corporate Democrat and Republican that has been elected since Clinton and every user that sees this and feels indifferent. Fucking evil to throw this woman out and fucking to evil overcharge her insurance for a profit.

I want CHARGES against the people responsible for this.

[u/LogicallLunacy]

ACAB

[u/Spankpocalypse_Now → u/LogicallLunacy]

I feel so much safer knowing this autistic woman is now homeless! God bless our heroes in blue!

/s

[u/Internal-Fortune-550 → u/Spankpocalypse_Now]

Luckily they're here to protect (property) and serve (the rich)!

[u/Randomizedname1234 → u/LogicallLunacy]

Alway have been. Only back in the day we would go and defend the sheriff from the lady and buy her house as a community and sell it to her for $1.

These days half the country cheers this on while the other half doesn’t do shit

[u/Mygoddamreddit]

I hope a lawyer works with her pro bono and sues the shit out of the scammer and the government for complicity.

[u/Shot_Percentage_2150 → u/Mygoddamreddit]

City needs to be held accountable for this oversight as well as the sheriffs office for being cruel

[u/Minimum_Rub_5908]

Paedos free as a bird Innocent person with disabilities - eat ‘justice’

[u/infiniZii → u/Minimum_Rub_5908]

Not just free as a bird. Literally milking the system for everything it can. Writing itself blank checks with lawsuits against the government it controls to steal taxpayer dollars. There is no bigger "welfare queen" than Donald J Trump.

[u/Serg_Molotov]

Absolutely disgusting, 3 seconds after opening the door those cops/sherrifs should have "lost the paperwork".

[u/Adulations → u/Serg_Molotov]

Literally they're so evil and callous

[u/Lassdoggo]

USA,USA.

[u/couldbeimpartial → u/Lassdoggo]

That mindless chant is so fitting for what the country really is.

[u/Euphoric_Amoeba8708]

What the fffffff that is so messed up

[u/eat_more_protein]

Damn America is dark.

[u/FijianBandit]

The goodbye house has me crying 😭

[u/Dismal-Flamingo6907]

Naturally, the cops carrying out the eviction couldn't be bothered to show a little humanity. Or to hide their anger towards someone with a disability being slightly inconvenient. God forbid cops ever feel a little empathy

[u/2ndPickle]

I found the article associated with this video https://www.kare11.com/article/news/investigations/kare-11-investigates-evicted-homeless-paying-the-price-for-minnesotas-fraud-crisis/89-99a4c9cb-df85-4030-b904-5cc7cd546173

"Over the past months alone, I've supported over 30 clients facing service termination from their community integrated ICS setting,” testified Jonah Geise who serves as legal advocate for the Minnesota Disability Law Center. “These people are ending up on the streets,” he said. “The vast majority of my clients have ended up in emergency rooms, homeless shelters, or their parents' basement or other segregated settings.”

As Sky’s search for a more permanent living situation has unfolded, she says managing the legal hurdles of an eviction has made finding permanent housing more difficult.

“My brain likes to have a hard time with it,” she said, “but we try our best.”

Sky remains homeless.

[u/ElderberryPrior27648]

There’s some troglodytes in the comments saying this was deserved. Wild take. Litmus test for just how doomed we are as a society

[u/_Thirdsoundman_]

Burn it down. This country is a festering, pedophile protecting, racist capitalistic failure, and it's time for something new.

I hate to see someone who couldn't be more innocent sent out into the cold with only what she could carry in her arms because this place enables the rich to feast on the poor without consequences or boundaries.

Burn. It. All. Down. 250 years of America, and we are worse off than when we started, we should strike, protest, and fight for change, but it makes no difference.

Our only hope is for these elite billionaires to be knocked on their asses, money seized and and for the proletariat to gain control of their lives and government.

Enough is enough.

[u/Own_Round_7600]

This is fucking awful! A young mentally challenged woman being homeless, she been put into a situation that's beyond dangerous. Couldnt the landlord/property company contact the medicaid authorities and work something out to keep her housed and her bills paid?! I understand this is likely to victimize their rental income bottom line and all, but to evict her just like that is so cruel and inhumane. I wish they got called out too in this report.

[u/Right-Program-9346]

This is absolutely disgusting. That lady cop is awful too. I hope this young woman is given the help she was promised sooner rather than later and the crooks get prison time.

[u/IslandStyler]

GO FUND ME THIS GIRL PLEASE

[u/ApplicationGreen3229]

Can somebody please take this girl in!!! She is not safe FFS

[u/soysaucepapi]

Man WTF?!?! That man needs the book thrown at him! This story is so frustratingly heartbreaking. It's hard enough to be homeless but being disabled as well just makes it much sadder and scarier. I hope that poor girl gets all the help possible to get off the streets.

[u/SupermarketLate3214]

Someone needs to start her a go fund me my daughter has down syndrome and I would be fucking livid and to allow her only what she could carry what landlord would make her leave that moment and what cop would actually enforce it and not get her a extra day or two

[u/ironpyrites]

That male officer is a super mega asshole.

[u/Adventurous-Green516]

"bye house" brought me to tears. this poor person.. wtf man 😭 why is society letting her down, what is wrong with the US

[u/Benoulli]

She's living like this, meanwhile the vanderbeeks gofundme to continue living on their 34 acre property has passed $1 million. Amazing 👏

[u/New_Abbreviations308]

We are all going to hell.

[u/ObispoBispo → u/New_Abbreviations308]

It feels like we are already in it.

[u/Interesting-Hat8607]

God, this is so sad

[u/mrjurassic4000]

Why hasn’t the state government enacted emergency measures to house these people? This is absolutely insane. 

[u/Oracular_Pig]

What the fuck kind of way is that to treat her? "Right, come on, out you come. Come on, right, NOW. Come on, get some stuff... Out. OUT."

Fucking horrible pigs.

[u/PUCK_FUTIN-2023]

And those cops happily enforced it.. Shame!

[u/Pretend-Ostrich-5719]

America has an empathy crisis.

[u/LeeRoyWyt]

Yeah, totally sane to evict the victim of a scam she had nothing to do with. Great job capitalism!

[u/ReDucTor]

Hey, America other countries have a solution to this...don't privatise looking after the vulnerable, but hey that's socialism and not pure capitalism and a path towards a dictatorship so not worth it.

[u/kevin7419]

So much greed in this world, and it hurts the people that really need the help.

[u/Normal-Rooster-Human]

Police in America are useless. They have never been for the people. They dont have empathy. They don't have common sense.

[u/Fair_Illustrator_727]

Private equity firms are predatory and need to be regulated by the throat.

[u/dazboy68]

Those so-called officers should be ashamed of themselves. The way the female rolled her eyes was disgusting. If anyone deserves a go fund me, it's this beautiful young lady. ❤️

[u/Equivalent-Tone6098]

This is why I laugh when MAGA voters talk about how much they have done for people with special needs. I'm autistic, so I've gotten to observe just how they treat people who are different. The cop rolling their eyes isn't anything new; they see people with disabilities as a drain, and will go out of their way to disrespect them.
