Full Episode
is that the homeless have readily admitted to me that we are the judge juries and executioners in encampments because they've kind of been left alone to create their own community you leave them to their own devices and they're in the middle of nowhere eventually they're going to create their own community with their own rules this is why every encampment has a mayor you know most encampments have a homeless mayor that's in charge of everybody
I've personally been taken to grave sites in the middle of the woods where they showed me where the bodies are buried. If we were ever to do some kind of infrared thing throughout the country where there's homeless encampments, where you can kind of tell if there's been holes dug, you're going to find people buried everywhere, especially in the deep woods.
Hey, this is Matt Cox. I'm here with Kevin Dahlgren. He is a homeless consultant and he's got some interesting stories regarding homeless issues and it's going to be interesting video. Check it out.

And I heard some commotion and turned around and he was having some words with these city employees, these contracted city employees. And really quickly, I saw it escalating. So I kind of turned on my camera thinking something bad is about to happen. And then what I sent you was this one minute, 11 second clip of these five city employees beating the hell out of this guy.
And it wasn't like it was some mutual combat thing. They had thrown him to the ground, stood around him and just kicked him in the head. Yeah. I mean, I couldn't even believe it.
and uh the whole time they're doing this they were being very threatening and stuff so anyway i was shocked but of course after this happened everyone basically said well kevin this is chicago and this is this is just normal and even when the police arrived they weren't
