Eric Peterson talks about the abatements from 2021 and how things have changed into 2022. The total costs being used for these abatements could be better spent. Some homeless have pets, spouses, and children that can cause issues for the homeless shelters and resources centers. Eric investigates further into the homeless situation in Utah including mental illness, jail, shelter and safety.

What are the chances that the homeless would go to the police with information? The homeless feel there is a lot of crime and need to look out for themselves and do not trust the Police enough because the Police are not doing enough about the Homeless situation.

High numbers of deaths of homeless people have been discovered over the past few years and there's not been shown that police are investigating this issue. A video of a homeless woman tells Utah Stories about these murders that are not being investigated.

Here is an article written by Eric.
