Homeless veteran
Posted: Tue May 06, 2014 2:32 pm
This man is in his late 50's, has a home, had a job at Sukups, etc. Over the holidays he was arrested at his home because a woman went to the hospital claiming she was held against her will. This all sounds bad and the guy obviously made some really poor choices to say the least. The police put him in jail and
ransacked his house. Later the women informed the police that she and another women had been smoking "dope" all day and she couldn’t remember much, this was a long term friend of the man. He spent I think two months in jail, they couldn’t find enough evidence to charge him with much, I think a small amount of marijuana. This is the short story.
Now, I don’t normally get involved in anything like this, but he isn’t such a detriment to society that he should be left to freeze to death. I do believe he has changed his ways, but he is in such a financial mess that there is no way out. He lost his job, car, all utilities were shut off and he has went everywhere to find work and some assistance. I would help him myself, but do not have that kind of money. He is a veteran and the VA wont even help him!
Is there anything or anyone who will help him? He is a smart man who has made some stupid choices. He is the type of person that gardens, cans food, fishes used to be a DNR officer at the lake and he is kind to others. He needs a hand up, please.
Sincerely,
