They should have raised their daughter better. At least it’s only a week.
I suggest they not give him food. Make their daughter cook for him, or bring him takeout.

The Coles both have learning difficulties and are being raised by social workers themselves. Lovely. Left wing lunacy at its best.

Hey kids: if you want to take an extended trip to the UK, but you don't have enough money for months of rent, just put down some random Englishman's address on your visa application.
He can't throw you out!

I wonder what would have happened if he had listed his address as 10 Downing Street?

Remember in WWII we had a program where American Gun Owners donated hardware to help the Brits?
It's time.

They should have raised their daughter better.Agreed, although it seems that he could have even made up an address entirely with the same result, judging by the breathtaking ineptitude displayed by the various agencies involved.
At least its only a week.
If the same ineptitude and bureaucratic "it's not my job" attitude had been displayed in the matter of a violent criminal or a burglar, a week would be far more than what would be needed to utterly destroy the lives of this family.
I suggest they not give him food. Make their daughter cook for him, or bring him takeout.
Sheriff Joe Arpaio has some excellent ideas for prison cuisine that could be implemented.

Take the tv and the groceries and go on vacation. Let the utility companies know you will be off the circuit awhile. SS would have him relocated real fast. I would suggest the next address he gives to be a 4 star hotel. Maybe one of those 2000 dollar a night ones I see on tv.

?? There is no 240 West Addison Street in Chicago. That would be in Lake Michigan.

Pathetic!... he gets free room and board and gets to diddle their daughter... age of consent is 16 in the UK BTW...
To: Stoat
Sims claims he was told he could stay by the Coles' 16-year-old daughter Tanya after he fell out with his father. He allegedly told Mrs Cole: "I'm staying here until the tag's off. There's f**k all you can do about it. The courts have told me to."
Bastard has to sleep sometime. Slit his throat.

This strikes me as just another symptom of the “Clockwork Orange” culture of meek submission to violent criminals engendered by British gun control.
