Homeless? Died from exposure, foul play. Just sad news. Glad they found her.
?Now it’s a him.
This is sad. He probably died of exposure. I hope the new housing the city is working on helps prevent such tragedies.
You can make it does not mean they will use it.
Or he over dosed more than likely
Man? Woman? Bi? Non-Binary? Perhaps even they were confused? R.I.P.
Gender is fluid. Really, it’s a state of mind and can vary day by day or even minute by minute. At the beginning of the article the deceased was a woman and by the end of it she was a man.
Joking about the deceased is callous. Have some respect, both of you. Trolls.
None of the above was about the deceased. It was about the correction in the article. And you don’t know but maybe the deceased might have appreciated it.
Poor soul.
It`s fun to make bad jokes about the stupid “trans- gender” nonsense. Especially if it involves a dead person.
Doing this can keep you feeling young. You can`t be young forever. However, you can be immature every day of your life.
The sadness of a heroin overdose is suffered not by the deceased but the friends and family left behind…this may have been an old friend of mine…It was somebody’s old friend.Maybe not the best time to joke but I see how it helps dispell a little of the sadness in your heart …I never felt so alive as when I was so close to the great beyond.God bless whoever is gone
not like maybe it had something to do with the weather. right now I am happy to have running water and power and I live in a house.
Bull. It’s like 50 degrees outside. Ain’t nobody freezing to death up in this mug. They come here BECAUSE they don’t freeze to death. It’s the #1 reason outside of free needles, drugs, welfare handouts.
There is an awful amount of drugs around and a lax view on marijuana has created a bong culture that collects welfare to grow weed.
When you see a golden Pitbull, you can bet an ebt card was used to buy it, along with fake dreadlocks, and a Toyota truck with a dent in it.
Taxpayers shouldn’t be buying these things or financing dope grows.
You funny!
It depends on how long the man was dead before he was found, we did have a considerable snowfall last Sunday, along with few nights in the low 30’s.
Man you sure are the type we should have run outta here a long time ago! I’m 4th gen. HUMBOLDT COUNTY and own a FAUN COLERED PITBULL, but no dreadlocks or Toyota with dents! And in my opinion you the Toyota Prius drive n cat owning f*** n liberal is what’s wrong with our Community Today we should have built a Trump wall to keep all you Starbucks drink and hippies the fuck out of here . Go back to Colorado and stay there!
One more HACHR “consumer” completes the program.
We need to house everybody , give them free food, free needles, money for breeding , free clothing , and free counseling. All supplied by hard working tax payers. Wait…… where do I sighn up?
Hope it wasn’t Tex. He was a fixture on the trail. Piking up trash. Always smiling. Those of us that walk the trail knew him. The police knew him. He had recently had an accident and damaged his ribs. The last time I talked with him he complained that his ribs hurt when he breathed deeply or coughed. As far as I know he never sought medical help.
Tex found him.
Maybe it’s the missing young man who worked at St. Joseph’s Hospital???
