Man In Homeless Housing Complex Seen Beating Dog

Exclusive

Disturbing video emerging showing a man inside a homeless housing complex in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood pummeling a dog. Witnesses say the incident happened this past weekend inside an apartment unit funded by the King County Regional Homelessness Authority near 10th Ave E & E John St. You can hear the neighbor desperately trying to get the man’s attention with a flashlight but the beatdown continues.

Police Response

This Capitol Hill neighbor says Seattle Police officers were called, but nothing was done to address this problematic situation. I’m reaching out to Seattle Police Department, King County Regional Homelessness Authority, and Dow Constantine for comment. If they respond, I will update here.

King County Continues to Fail to Address Dangerous Situations

Last month, we first told you about the way King County Executive Dow Constantine and KCRHA quietly moved dozens of homeless drug addicts from a dangerous encampment in Burien, to apartment units in Seattle.

Why Housing First Fails

What’s happening here is the failed “Housing First” policy in action. Dow Constantine and KCRHA are giving homeless drug addicts from Burien free apartments and studios without any strings attached. No requirements to find jobs or get treatment.

Where’s the Accountability?

By the way, there was another woman inside the unit during the dog beating. She did nothing to stop it. Sources also say this King County Regional Homelessness Authority funded homeless housing complex has zero accountability. Drug dealers apparently live in the building and it’s turning into a revolving door for criminals.
