All the crime going on, all the people who need help, and they are wasting tax dollars looking for someone who's better off missing

Someone killed a sex offender and we're spending thousands on investigating his death?!?! This is our taxes and I for one think who cares, he's a p.o.s. and can't ruin any more lives!

Un-F'n-believable. Only in WA where criminals' rights are more important than the law abiding citizens!

Honestly though, you can stop investigating the death of that sex offender. Just stop looking for more evidence. Its all good. Let him rott in that hole in the ground. Go do some real detective work and sace people who actually need help 💀

That's y'all problem. Y'all too busy worried about a damn sex offenders body instead of the bodies of his victims. Quick to pamper the wicked but the righteous are condemned.

Rochelle long saved my life. She helped me off the street and now I have my own place and custody of all three of my kids. I'm extremely grateful for her kindness.

Solve the case of who ever killed the rapist and give them a medal for taking out human garbage.....

Well it's to bad for his family. However his death may have saved countless future victims from being assulted.

I don't give a damn about no sex offender dying or getting killed.

so a dead sex offender? sounds like someone saved some lives 👍

He would have never been prosecuted, and jailed. He got justice. No tears for this monster.

He cut his leg off to get rid of his ankle monitor.... then Hitch Hiked out of state living off disability checks

Welcome to New Los Angeles

Glad that did a spotlight on Snohomish County it's gone so downhill here I work graveyard at a 7 eleven on hwy 99 and oh man it really gets to me. The ish I see on a daily is insane. It's really like a lawless land out here. They run everything and we just have to adapt. What about us law abiding citizens!?! We are literally being harassed on the daily, drug use out in the open I can't even count how many times I see people using drugs outside my store. Un capped needles, foils and drugs themselves I've had to sweep away. And on top of all that the trash! They just trash my store. Some of them are great people and I will buy them food and a little cash to clean the parking lot. But others just steal it or act entitled like they deserve it for free. I get freaked out on daily for not giving free food or cigarettes to them like I work 7 days a week for my money damnit I don't want to be bullied out of it. I just don't put up with it anymore I tell them what's up and not going to bully me or do that shit/hang out in front of my store and to move along. It's really depressing and also makes me just angry. For everyone having to witness this and the CHILDREN IN THE AREA they Have to watch people using drugs and the trash everywhere. Just disgusting and maddening. Law makers, police, the community and business owners we all need to get together and figure something out because it's just going to get worse. They don't go to jail and if they do they are out right away. So to them uts okay for them to continue to do what they are doing. And don't get me wrong I sympathize with there situation but when they are harming not just themselves but us in the community.

I love Buell and Rochelle!! Over 5 years ago the office of Neighborhood program helped me get off the streets! I graduated the UW, I’m a case manager and work with the homeless population. What they are doing is sooooo important.

He asked that guy you got stabbed the other day??? He said yea, yeah I was cleaning my butthole and got stabbed !!!! 😳 Wtaf 😳 😂 is too funny

why judge granted sex offerder on the street again? that is insane. they should know that the ankle detector dont work to criminals cuz they litterally could cut it off

Awesome concerted efforts between human services, mental health, and law enforcement.

I don't understand how everyone gets spoken like they are angels after death. Maybe someone knew of what he did . Not just bad very bad that includes kids. So maybe justice has been served

If he's sex offender why waste resources on trying to solve his murder?

This is great work guys!! I have almost 3 years clean!!!

Very nice 👍🏻. I moved from Everett 4 years ago and am glad to see the efforts being done to make the city and county more safe. The idea of having a social worker working along with a police 👮‍♀️ officer to help get the homeless and the drug addicts to get help is a great endeavor for all. Great video. 👍🏻🙏

If you snitch on the sex offender killer, we coming for yoy

And the "boosting" at home Depot has been a problem for decade's and decade's all across the country, get with the program people

Pathetic! They aren't willing to do what it takes to keep their ass clean and you want us to feel sorry for them?

This just might be a case of that thing called karma 🤔 Maybe I could be wrong.

I'm glad for that program in Marysville, but the fear of sickness is ridiculous. The sickness is why I'll never go back to heroin or street drugs. I spent 3 months going cold turkey off heroin. It taught me how strong I was. It was I beat it or I die, well I'm alive and better off then when I started 15 years ago. Doesn't work for everyone but for those who make it are more likely to never go back compared to the ones who accept the "treatment"!

was it a Democratic Judge that let the sex offender out?

All the people didn't just evaporate they're still there and this isn't anything new. During the depression the government actually created jobs and there's plenty of jobs now the problem is the open border policy letting drugs flow through it's just keeping all these people down. Unfortunately many of these people look to be too far gone but I do think that if a person wants to better themselves they certainly can.

Are they trying to find the killer to thank them for getting rid of a sex Offender?

Addiction is not a disease. Labels just make rich richer. Homelessness will never end. Move where ?

It's all about choices. Unless the person is mentally ill. If a person chooses to drunk, take drugs and so on they must take responsibility for their own choices. Why should others suffer their choices?

I was in Snohomish Saturday night and I was talking to a couple county deputies, who were not very interested in talking at all. Anyways, the one when I asked him about the crime wave and he said it’s nothing out of the norm and it is just an up tick and it will cycle back down. I was like WTF.

I used to live in the apartments behind home Depot there and it was always known for drugs but was never this bad 😞

Right where I live lol we have video cameras but I've only seen one person trying to break in to our vehicles one time, and that was a couple years ago, and I live within a few blocks of the Home Depot on 128th street. Most, if not all, of these people just need a little help getting treatment, the smallest hand up can do wonders, but every single one of them needs to be ready. Like ACTUALLY ready. The violence, thats mostly gang related and has little, if anything, to do with the general homeless population. There are worse areas, even if Airport road/hwy 99 is highlighted more than most.

Aaaaaaaaaand, nobody cares. We're all better off now. WTF is the problem? Do your damn jobs.

There’s no progress going on. They just moved down the road. I work on 128th and it hasn’t gotten better. Everyday I go to work I have to deal with more homeless and drug addicts than the day before.

Wooded and swampy areas, could have been anything. You’d be surprised what comes down out from the hills close to towns. Cougar, bear, who knows. Was the leg cut off or torn off? If it was torn off got to be wild animal.

Im sick of this homeless problem. Its soo stupid. Send them all to the woods or something. Increase the deadly drugs. "Natural selection." Going to everett is just dangerous. The hard working class gets robbed daily.

Wait... Why is there so much effort being put into the death of the sex offender? PS who can I contact about the criminals who abuse the tenant laws and screw landlords over?

My heart is bleeding. I grew up here. There was meth everywhere. Drugs everywhere. It took my brother's life.

Yeah. Why are we focused on this 1

To protect & serve & they r. Sad addicted ppl dont see it. Ive been robbed blind by addicts. Cat converters, batteries, furniture.

David helped me several years back. He truly is a great guy.

When those interviewed admit that they are offered housing and other help, but then tell you that they refuse it, that is pretty much the end of the story. That needs to be the well-understood part. They refuse help towards "normal" life because that requires being responsible for progress towards normality, whatever services that means that they need. Until and unless someone is more desperate for food and life and change than they are for the drugs, "help" is not going to make a positive and lasting difference, no matter how compassionate the police or anyone else wants to be. It's one of the reasons that giving money to people in those situations is nearly always a bad idea. The people that help really needs to focus on are those who are not doing hard drugs, at least, and are doing everything they can to work but still can't afford housing while still meeting their other basic obligations.

Except Kidnapping that’s totally legal in Shonomish county

How are cops under staffed if 5 cops respond to one independent auditors cam. Good if bad cops leave. I've witnessed bad public servants. So so many mistakes on both sides. I was homeless off and on 13yrs. My fault. But not all "help" is good help. Bad public servants suck.

Amazing science 🧬! So sorry for all the pain😢✨,

This is the change we need. Demonizing addicts does nothing but keep people afraid of seeking assistance. Many addicts started out as abuse and neglect victims as children.

Also let’s put a new hotel chain up that won’t lease/rent rooms to drug dealers

Good riddance to bad fucking rubbish. Da hell you wasting those resources for?

The guy went “blehhhh” imitating the police horn right as a car blew its horn

Snohomish has been there to help addicts for awhile. Treatment and compassion ❤️ that's how we get things moving toward the positive.

Too bad they don’t put in as much effort to protect kids from abuse.

A lot of wasted money spent on a homeless criminal I don't understand it...... Nobody cares if he died , and nobody cares who killed him.....

Considering that YOU and your station dont answer messages, why should anyone call in?

This is so not how cops deal with the homeless and addicted they have no compassion this is for the show him acting nice smh

My wife and I just lost everything we owned thanks to the horrible mess Everett has turned into. We had our truck vandalized to the point of no return. They tried to steal it and completely deatroyed it. I caught them in the act.Couldn't get their faces on camera but they were driving a white toyota minivan with temporary tag on the back window. They were mexican, one was short, fat and in his forties wearing a dark coat with stripes on the sleeves, the other was short with tattoos all over his face. Our RV was stolen at a little after 7, when security left this morning from the motel parking lot BY THE SAME PEOPLE. Only this time they were in a dark crossover. So if anyone sees a white Toyota Sienna CE with temp tags and license plate CAS6914 or a white 27 foot R Vision Sport light weight trailer being towed by a small dark crossover around Everett, Please call 911 immediately. Everything we owned is in there. We don't even have clothes. They cannot get far with that vehicle towing that trailer. Also would be very grateful if people could pass the descriptions on. I'm not on social media and I have to work so at least we have a warm place to stay. I cannot believe this is what we get for Christmas. My wife has a huge heart and always gives food to the homeless, helps anyone in need and has influenced me to do the same. She's the best person that I know and she doesn't deserve this. Thank you in advance.

My family and I lived in Everett for 3 years, 2000 - 2003. “Was” beautiful back then but now I hear it’s all gone downhill…damn shame

Unfortunately no one cares about a sex offender 🤷🏾‍♂️

SCSO needs to start a volunteer program and not make it so difficult to join. I respect our senior volunteers, but you have men and women who could really help you, but you dont want the help. Look at how hard it is to join SAR!

Imagine wasting all of these taxpayer resources on a worthless sex offender.

So what you were saying the War on Drugs was a myth

I grew up in that area... back before home Depot was there. There were only a couple of apartment complexes then... Still pretty nice place to live... you just stayed away from casino road. Fast forward...in the past couple of months I've seen 3 people pooping (not in the same place...that would be weird) A bought Wendy's for the guy who said he got stabbed in the butthole... Said his name was Frank and that he promises to never do drugs again. Sure Frank... enjoy your frosty.

Nope. Drove by there yesterday. About 40 people in front of the home Depot

Wouldn't it be spectacular if thorough investigations were done for the victims of the sexual predator instead of investigations "for" the sexual predator! Major FAILING Right out the gate is "He was released!" Perpetrators are regularly bonded low & released!! They go right back out and something usually happens! The scourage of Institutional betrayal & Systemic failure in the "injustice system"! Wouldn't the time and energy and passion be just spectacular for the actual victims of crimes!??! Unfortunately it does not happen like that. Its quite contrary!! 😔 Perpetrators are actually rarely held accountable!!💯

Waste of tax payers money.

Why were the police after him after he left his house while on house arrest with an ankle monitor?

Homeless people need to get jobs and stop complaining about how they are living, I live in south Marysville and it's bad for homeless people here, I'm sick and tired of being asked for money when I'm out doing stuff.

Imagine defunding the police and then complaining about the increase in crime and criminal activity..

Thats what happens when your a sex offender. End up in the ground sorry not sorry.

This is clearly the Upside Down World.

Check the cameras pointed at incoming roads.

So these homeless people steal out of a store and people buy stolen properties? They should go to jail as well.

Do that to California

Im not going to mourn a dead sex offender. Justice was served.

"It's a Shame they have to adapt"? Life is about CHANGE! You're lying to yourself if you think it isn't.

7:35 dude said he got stabbed In his hand cuz he was covering his butthole? Wtf was they doing🤣🤣🤣

I was receiving manager at that Depot #4713. Worked there 2010-2014. Was a rat nest area, even then. Theft has worsened. Road behind Depot was a park lot of run down vehicles.

Our heavenly Father blesses those who bless others 😊

Is smokey point and mt Vernon bad like this now to?

I can’t believe they have these cities that allow open drug use like this. I’m from New England and have never seen anything like this.

How did that work out with alcohol prohibition?

Unfortunately I am human and have compassion for all human beings. Unfortunately this is what happens to pedophiles- looks like he messed with the wrong father unfortunately. It’s going to be related to his prior offense against a child. I would be checking anyone related to the child victims family 100%

I would bet that local store owners would like to see the city of Everett and county is Snohomish adapt and lower their taxes

Home Depot should go back and buy their merchandise back so they can at least resell it.

Ok!

Well a little lesson for every creep out there.

People are safer now. Why spend tax money.

Don’t waste taxpayers dollars on looking for sex offenders!!!! Sex offenders do not deserve to live!!!!

Good on the cops

I was born in Snohomish County. I never tell anyone, it' too embarrassing. So glad we moved to Texas 50 years ago. WA is a liberal hellhole.

It’s still there and has been there every day!

So sad, Everett used to be a really nice city 😔took only two decades for crime and homelessness to take over this very old city.

Why? Whoever whacked him, did us all a favor.

SOLUTION BASE THINKING! ALSO PLEASE NOTE POLICE DO NOT CEASE CRIME! THEY MIGHT DETER IT BUT THEY DONT STOP IT FROM HAPPENING?

My heart bleeds. NOT! How about this? Three strikes you're out!!...like they said back in the '80's for Blacks in the inner cities! Boy...what a difference when skin color is involved!

Why does anyone care? They police can search for the answers for this sex offenders death but can’t search for a families loved one of a law abiding citizen if they drown in a lake. Pathetic

And the world is a better place without another set offender.

Make NO mistake. These people don’t care. Trust me. You can rot in jail for all they care
