The migrant crisis worsens in New York City as a Staten Island shelter continues to cause hygiene issues in the area.
School turned controversial shelter, St. John Villa Academy is currently housing nearly 300 migrants, something it was never built to do.
The 67-year-old building is currently acting as full-time residence and bathroom for the migrants in the area. Due to the age and purpose of the building, it was never meant for 24/7 use, and the ejector pumps are incapable of moving huge quantities of raw sewage into the city's sewers.
To address the issue, a septic-treatment company visits the location multiple times a day to pump the raw sewage into a concrete pit, which usually takes 15 minutes and takes it away. During this time, the abhorrent smell plagues the neighborhood.
Scott Herkert who lives adjacent to the shelter told DailyMail.com: 'So directly connecting to my property is the school and along the fence that's connecting, they have their showers which I'm sorry, shower slash bathrooms.
'At least once a day they're coming in and they're pumping these out and when they do pump it out, it smells, it smells like what you would expect it to smell. They're pumping out a bathroom and the f*** out of here and shit.'

'You're lying to the people, you're lying to the people about the border crisis, you're lying to the people in the cities and the communities had we not exposed this,' he tells DailyMail.com

Staten Island, the San Francisco of the East Coast
“Super Duper Pooper Scooper Sanctuary City.”
Fixed if for ya. ;)
I feel sorry for them, but it’s such a tiny amount compared to what the border states have put up with for years.
The thing is, a lot of them voted for this
Gee… That’s a shame.
Keep voting for Democrats. You wanted it… You got it.
Trump won Staten Island by 15 points.
Yay. A fellow connoisseur of classic cinema. Casablanca, move over.
Double, hell Triple the number staying there, put up tents everywhere
I didn’t know that, then that explains why the mayor is doing that. I hope they load the migrants back and send them back to the mayors house.
Well, when you vote for shit you get more of it. Enjoy your neighborhoods, stupid voters! You asked for it!
Turd worlders gonna turd.
New Yorkers bitching about illegal alien migrants is a start.
Why is no one taking these cities to court like Phoenix did?
Many of them probably didn’t have flush toilets. Mexican sewage systems are such that it’s common to throw used TP in the trash. I remember someone complaining about a Mexican coworker doing that. California, I believe. And, of course, the complaining party was fired.
Staten Island is the Republican part of NYC. It voted big for Trump.
That is why they are sending the illegals there.
I’m catching up! There were a lot of fun movies I missed from 1979-1993 when I was in the Army. All we were ever given to watch were Personal Hygiene films, LOL!
Well they got what they voted for enjoy.
