The owner was sited times about the building violations and the law was not enforced if so all would be alive.
We have laws for a reason USE THEM.
Im sure he voted for Hillary and obama
Ion was not the owner; he rented the sites as a venue for his art and maybe the art of others . Ng is the owner and he owns a number of sites in Oakland. I do not know who promoted the development of the interior of the building into a rabbit’s warren of rooms for sleeping, living in or doing art in. Whoever did that is culpable along with Ion and Ng.
I hope all involved in promoting such a sty/warren are hung. No sympathy for those who exploit the young and then do not mourn their deaths. Sick.
I’ve only seen a report of one recent failed inspection attempt but none of citations having been issued.
