San Francisco has caught Nevada and New York sending people on buses to get rid of them. This is supposed to only be legal if the person has family in California they are meeting, but they just dump mentally ill people on Market Street and hope for the best. Nevada paid a large fine for this recently. Many of the people needed urgent help within hours of arriving. Truly horrific.

- notjesse 8y agoDo you have a source for that? Sounds pretty egregious.

- davidfischer 8y agoThis is not unique to San Francisco. https://www.10news.com/news/team-10/team-10-man-with-extensive-criminal-history-in-nashville-put-on-bus-sent-to-san-diego https://www.10news.com/news/team-10/team-10-man-with-extensi... > Partin's bus ticket cost $261.50. The receipt, dated February 2, 2015, is stamped with the name of a Nashville agency called Homeward Bound. Investigators at Team 10's sister station in Nashville, WTVF, learned the agency that has oversight of the Homeward Bound program is the Nashville Downtown Partnership (NDP), a group dedicated to making the city a great place to do business.

- tptacek 8y agoI don't know what San Francisco caught Nevada doing, but lurid stories aside, organizations do actual surveys and censuses of the San Francisco homeless, and they're overwhelmingly locals.
