Homeless encampments in the Hollywood stomping grounds of Beverly Hills have taken a turn for the worse, as a local business owner says there are now naked people deterring customers.
A naked woman was seen just lying out on a leftover couch amid the rubble in one of the encampments in recent days, scaring a business owner who would only refer to herself as Debra.
She says the encampment has hurt her haircare business and made her afraid to work past 6 p.m. along San Vicente Boulevard, just south of the Beverly Center.
'I have a nice clientele, but now my clientele is getting to the point where they just don't feel comfortable,' Debra, who has been in the area for two decades, said.
She's begging city officials to take action to stop her from losing any further business.
I saw the couch one day out there and I think, 'Oh my God,'' she told ABC7. 'The next day, I came back and see she's all over the couch and she's just naked. She was crying. I felt bad for her, you know?'
'I wanted to like give her something to cover up but I felt like if I do the little things, then I'll have everyone coming and asking for help.'
'My home is within walking distance of these encampments,' said Councilmember Katy Yaroslavsky, whose district includes Debra's business, in a statement.
'I walk or drive past this neighborhood almost everyday with my three children. What these small businesses and the surrounding communities have had to endure is unacceptable.'
Debra has said she's been unable to get the city or any of its officials to help.

The homeless are now making their way to wealthy white liberal enclaves and the woke idiots there are not happy about it. Well boo hoo! Voting Democrat time and time again has consequences. I hope the storeowner awoke from her “wokeness” when she went looking for help from the politicians she voted into office and got turned away. LA Councilwoman Katy Yaroslavsky is gonna be just like her old man Zev, a career Democrat, do nothing politician!
Why do people expect the government to fix things?
I would never have a homeless problem.
They’d be gone.
When laws work against law abiding people, then you ignore those laws, and the government can go f... its self.
Y’all just have to be smarter about it than a Texas rancher that calls cops.

With the possible exception of south-western B.C., Canada is blessed to have no long-term problems of this particular sort, I would not anticipate seeing this becoming wide spread here in my life time.
Even if one wants to get rid of various organs, frostbit is probably not the optimal way of performing gender-change surgery, although it is cheap.
Who wants to bet the business owner votes only for democrats?
When these leftists shoot themselves in the foot, they can’t figure out where the bullet came from. They will keep electing leftists forever, even if they destroy everything.
And who did “Debra” vote for in the past election??? Asking for a frustrated taxpaying friend.
So much filth going on in America - THANKS DEMOCRATS!!
Wait till naked woman isn’t there, then move the couch.
I used to live near there, around Doheny and Melrose. I left in June 2020. I miss what L.A. can be, at its best, but its best was gone by 2014.
The Gods of the Copybook Headings
(Rudyard Kipling) should be required for reading and analysis for every child twice, about age 10 and age 16.
Every Hollywood ‘star’, producer and director should have homeless camps outside their homes and businesses...
They inflicted this crap on the rest of us.
NOW WE need to pass legislation outlawing private security... Let THEM deal with violent criminals and homeless drug addicts without the benefit of paid security. It’s their turn ... eff ‘em.
Hollywood deserves this... we didn’t.
every single pulbic housing project should be built next to the demcrats houses that voted for them!
This is really getting good. Guess our oh so tolerant liberal suburbanites are no longer so insulated from the consequences of their actions and they are getting to live in the world they created.
Our family left San Francisco in 2016 - it was too much then, went back on a business trip in 2019 and it was much worse, our old neighborhood was filthy. I try to keep in mind the San Francisco of the 1980s, it was magic.
I would put a few dozen large public housing projects on Martha’s Vineyard... to start with...
