1st: 12/12/11 Lies at Intake, the Boston Public Health Commission Shelter in Boston

December 14, 2011

I made this recording on 12/12/11, at 8:14 p.m., says the recorder.

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I tried to talk to the supervisor at Intake, to ask if he could stop the harassment.  There’s often a police officer at Intake; whoever it is usually sits at a desk in front of the supervisor’s office.  I didn’t get a chance to talk to the supervisor at that time.

   

Here’s the police officer at Intake, encouraging the same sort of harassing behavior by other guests that led to the woman hitting me a few weeks ago.

After he tells me to wait to talk to the staffperson at the other desk, you can hear a homeless man in the background demonstrating his knowledge of the larger situation and that I’m not imagining anything.

Then you can hear the female staffperson contributing to my being bullied with her refusal to acknowledge that it’s happening or to do anything about it.
