You put Willamette Week and Oregon Live etc to shame. This is the work they should be doing. Bless you for our persistence and compassionate heart for these women. This is hard stuff to deal with and it takes courage to do so, for multiple reasons.
Great piece...thanks for pulling the story together. You've gotta wonder why this town's dinosaur-media hasn't been on this story full-tilt.
This is just a sliver of the way that "homelessness" has been monetized in Portland. You might even say that Jesse Calhoun was an employee of one of its high-profit subsidiaries. The current strategy by Homeless Inc. is to give developers $-millions to cram the "poor" into one place...easier to control and exploit. Nonprofits do the money laundering; cartels run the market; pols get the cream-off. Have we left anone out?

Everyone, female or male, who publicly advocates for the legalization of "sex work" should be required to read this article and pass a reading comprehension test to prove they got it.
By the way, on a slightly related tangent, namely exposés about topics certain city officials would rather not see aired, does anyone have concrete facts about what Kevin Dahlgren is alleged to have done that caused Michael Schmidt's office to arrest him on various criminal charges?
