So, there is some form of justice. This guy would take advantage of homeless women by offering them a “safe” place to stay. When they accepted his invitation, he would require sexual payment and would also take their money, jewelry, and medications as further payment for his “safe” place. Many were afraid to report the abuse since he had something that they needed.


RIP Old Man Winter
