Plymouth Housing

Harm Reduction In Action Plymouth Housing continues to be a blight on the downtown Seattle community. Look at all the drug action in front of the Stewart Street location. This is “Housing First” and “Harm Reduction” in action. Staff give out free drug supplies and no one is required to go into detox or find jobs. So they hang out all day in their apartments and do fentanyl. In some cases, dealers actually live in the units. It’s one stop shopping and a death trap. If any of these so called “permanent supportive” apartments are pitched for your community, fight like heck to keep it out. Unless you like to live next to crime, chaos, and death everyday. 911 calls Read More ›

What Is Redmond Thinking? Construction workers finishing up the AMLI Redmond Way luxury apartments in downtown say the company had no idea the city would allow Plymouth Housing to build right next door. There’s already concern potential renters will avoid the AMLI once they realize Plymouth facilities attract an inordinate amount of crime, open air-drug use, and death into the community. Along with dozens of businesses, there’s also a daycare right next door. And with light rail nearby, it’s an easy commute to Microsoft and Meta. The tech workers are gonna love being around fentanyl addicts and dealers. No idea what Mayor Angela Birney and the city council is thinking here. They’ve been captured by the homeless industrial complex. Goodbye Read More ›

Exclusive Controversial homeless services provider Plymouth Housing banned me, We Heart Seattle’s Andrea Suarez and podcaster Brandi Kruse from a secret ground breaking ceremony in Redmond, WA. But I exposed them anyway. “Our Faces Were Plastered Everywhere” On Wednesday, Plymouth hosted a private ceremony at the Hilton Garden Inn. It was invite only. Sources told me photos of our faces were plastered everywhere and security was told to keep us out. Brandi Kruse’s Reporting Kruse has been annihilating Plymouth. Our Report on Low Barrier Housing So has Suarez. She helped me expose all the crime, chaos, and death at Plymouth facilities. Plymouth Housing/PorchLight Chaos And lately, I’ve been ferociously covering the Plymouth Housing/PorchLight campus disaster in Bellevue. Residents are now Read More ›

Damage Control Embattled Plymouth Housing CEO Karen Lee is doing damage control after our series of reports highlighting all the crime, chaos, and death in her Bellevue, WA facility. I have obtained an email Lee recently sent to Bellevue councilmembers. Based on her talking points and spin, she appears to think they’re gullible and stupid. Page 1 Lee claims some of the content about Plymouth contains misinformation or misleading characterizations. But she fails to call out specifics and also does not name the news organization or social media accounts. Page 2 She then goes on to say the Plymouth model works and tries to prove her point by citing debunked studies from liberal academics. However, Lee once again fails to Read More ›

Breaking Bellevue homeless murder suspect Samuel Hitchcock has been arrested. In a joint effort with the United States Marshals Service and the Portland Police Bureau, regional partners arrested Hitchcock near a residential area in Portland. More details will be made available during a 3pm press conference at Bellevue Police HQ. A Massive Black Eye This has been a massive black eye for the Porchlight/Plymouth Housing campus in the Eastgate neighborhood. This property triggers the most 911 calls in the city and is constantly being blamed by neighbors for open-air drug use and other crimes. Holding Plymouth Accountable The city is now requiring Porchlight to do better and come up with better safety measures. Holding Plymouth accountable is another story. Charging Read More ›

No Regrets King County Councilmember Claudia Balducci admits she helped usher in the problematic Bellevue Plymouth Housing/Porchlight campus. I asked her point blank if she has any regrets allowing the facility into the community since it triggers the most 911 calls in the city. She did not answer my question directly but Balducci did defend the “Housing First” approach to solving the homeless drug crisis. Listen carefully in the end. She could only cite the former Silvercloud Inn location as the most successful “permanent supportive housing” facility in King County. That’s because it’s not being run by Plymouth. The Christian based Salvation Army is operator in Redmond. Notice the stark difference? Communities Worried About Plymouth Expansion We have tried to Read More ›

They Said It Would Be Safe It’s a daily occurrence at Bellevue’s Plymouth Housing/Porchlight campus. On Monday, witnesses say two people got into an argument at Plymouth and one woman brandished a knife. No one was injured. Tons of cops were called again, draining resources and taxpayer dollars from the community. This is “permanent supportive housing” in action. The crime, chaos, and death continues. City and county politicians lied to the community when they said it would be safe. Now it’s becoming a PR nightmare for them because residents are finally demanding change.

Plymouth Resident Threatens Staff Bellevue’s Plymouth Housing/Porchlight campus continues to be a cancer on the community. On Sunday, a non-verbal Plymouth resident allegedly made terroristic threats. He scribbled on the wall that he would shoot staff with a pistol and held a weapon in his hand. Arrestee Known for Spitting and Kicking People Cops later determined the “weapon” was actually a lighter. They arrested him on the spot. Witnesses say the man is Merrell James Gorham and is wheelchair bound. He is known for spitting and kicking people. He’s also been trespassed at numerous area businesses.

Problematic Plymouth After numerous problematic incidents at the Plymouth Housing/PorchLight campus in Bellevue, more neighbors are starting to scrutinize this facility and are now demanding accountability. This Eastgate location triggers the most 911 calls in the city and is responsible for drug overdoses, fights, and recently housed a homeless murder suspect who remains on the loose. Some of the clients are so unhinged, they will accost and menace you for no reason. That’s exactly what happened to me earlier this year. So where are all the politicians, far-left activists, and clueless neighbors who allowed this cancer into the community? Housing First Fails The homeless industrial complex is trying to latch on to more locations. The politicians backing Housing First and Read More ›

Killer on the Loose The Bellevue homeless killer is still on the loose. Cops are asking for the public to keep an eye out for Samuel Hitchcock, the prime suspect in this case. He’s been spotted in the Seattle area since the body of Jason Clark was discovered on June 30 in the Eastgate neighborhood. Meanwhile, citizen journalists with FB group “Factoria Looks Like Shiit” are now looking into this case. They have some new insight into the suspect and victim’s connection to the Plymouth Housing/PorchLight homeless complex, which is right next to the homicide scene. The facility remains a crime magnet and cancer on the community.
