Yeah, like the Chicongo chimpouts every weekend.
I'm texting the friend that told me about it and shes looking to see if the news talked about it.
He stabbed one woman and beheaded the other. No real clear reason why......no one even knows how they all knew eachother. All homeless, all drug users.
Everytime something gnarly happens down there that my friend gets called to, she tells me about it lol. The worst was a guy in a bathtub whose hernia incision opened and his intestines completely came out and part of it was stuck in the drain. And he was sitting there talking like normal lol
I feel extra sorry for women who are homeless. It must be like playing Russian roulette every single day with all the crazy nutjobs and predators.
Well the majority of the homeless women on the streets in Detroit are addicts and some are being trafficked.
When I lived in the metro area I used to go out with an outreach that was for these women. Just handing them food(like bagged lunches....sandwiches), some hygiene products. Clothes. Et. And you build relationships with them and try to get them to trust you enough to leave the streets with you so they can get help. They often want you to pray with them and for them.
A handful of the women I was in my program with came to the mission that way.
There are plenty of resources for them when they are ready to leave that life.
There is a man who goes down there and talks to them and builds relationships with them and he video interviews them, and people on his channel will help them with clothing and food...et. And if/when they want the help, he will get them in touch with those resources that will help them.
Here is a video
Another
His channel has a handful of the women. You can hear their stories, get to know them....most importantly humanize them and even help if youd like. My husband and I have bought things off the womens wish lists he sets up
You cant really get them off the streets until they want to leave. Sadly. You have to kinda get that out of your head and just sit with them. Let them know they are valuable and cared about. Many of them feel unworthy of bothering.
I know the woman in the first video. Shes a very wonderful human being ♡ shes suffered a lot of abuse and shes a very warm and generous person.
