Artie spent 26 years in prison for homicide. He’s now a part of a arguable scheme to take on medication, homelessness and crime in San Francisco.
City Alchemy is a charity that appears to ‘pacify’ essentially the most unhealthy spaces of San Francisco. They offer former prisoners a task and lodging. In go back they patrol the streets, mitigating drug sellers and seeking to get tough sleepers into refuge.
San Francisco has poured cash into the mission – after it was once published that extra other people died from drug overdoses within the town than of Covid remaining 12 months.
Is that this an intensive way to the town’s medication and homelessness downside? Or a social experiment being carried out at the maximum susceptible other people within the town?
