Made me think of actRESS who played Abby on NCIS...
What an awful thing to have happen.
But from the article, it sounds like this kind of stuff is not out of the norm around MacArthur Park - though the homeless advocates are making it sound like it is.
“Roughly one-third of all calls to the Los Angeles Police Department, about 40 calls every hour, involve someone suffering a mental health crisis, LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell told The Post.
Firefighters on the front lines say the numbers are just as staggering. Los Angeles Fire Department Station 11, which serves the MacArthur Park area, responded to 8,568 ambulance runs in the first eight months of 2025, compared with just 55 structure fires, making it one of the busiest firehouses in the country.”
It’s still cheaper to leave the mentally ill out on the street I guess. Oh well.
I’ll never have that recipe again! Oh no!

Oh my
Animal control got rid of the bears and, guess what? That stupid kalifornia broad started feeding them again. Again, too many bears. 911. This time she was arrested and the judge told her to get out of Orygone.
I feel the same way about the stinking kalifornians moving to my state.
A teachable moment.
It is proof, positive, that you cannot beat brains INTO someone.
Is it melting in the dark?
Is Echo Park the same place ?
“...someone suffering a mental health crisis,”
How awful.
Are there Amish at this park?
