Disabled Man Arrested for Being Homeless in Las Vegas - TWICE
Vložit

- Derwin is disabled living in a tent homeless in Las Vegas. You can't see from this angle, but I am sitting in Derwin's wheelchair to get level since he was lying on the ground.
Derwin has been arrested twice in Las Vegas for trespassing. He spent 20 days and then 10 days in jail for the crime of not being able to afford an apartment. Las Vegas is one of the worse cities criminalizing homelessness. The city passed a law making homelessness illegal punishable by a $1,000 fine or 6 months in jail. The thing is, they do not offer people like Derwin a path to get out of homelessness into housing.

About Invisible People
There is a direct correlation between what the general public perceives about homelessness and how it affects policy change. Most people blame homelessness on the person experiencing it instead of the increasing shortage of affordable housing, lack of employment, childhood trauma, lack of a living wage, or the countless reasons that put a person at risk. This lack of understanding creates a dangerous cycle of misperception that leads to the inability to effectively address the root causes of homelessness.
We imagine a world where everyone has a place to call home. Each day, we work to fight homelessness by giving it a face while educating individuals about the systemic issues that contribute to its existence. Through storytelling, education, news, and activism, we are changing the narrative on homelessness.
This isn’t just talk. Each year, our groundbreaking educational content reaches more than a billion people across the globe. Our real and unfiltered stories of homelessness shatter stereotypes, demand attention and deliver a call-to-action that is being answered by governments, major brands, nonprofit organizations, and everyday citizens just like you.
However, there is more work to be done on the road ahead. Homelessness is undoubtedly one of our biggest societal issues today and will only continue to grow if we don’t take action now.
Invisible People is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to educating the public about homelessness through innovative storytelling, news, and advocacy. Since our launch in 2008, Invisible People has become a pioneer and trusted resource for inspiring action and raising awareness in support of advocacy, policy change and thoughtful dialogue around poverty in North America and the United Kingdom.

@@thewarhead3524 Arnold is one of the good guys. He came from another country before he was rich and famous.
He understands the plight of poor ppl.
Sorry he said the rent was 250$ a month..as a european do people in America really cant afford rent so low? Im not accusing im Just asking thanks..if he cant afford 250$ how much did he earn so with his work?
Thanks so much for what you do; I've been on and off the streets all around the country over the years (thankfully I'm not now); it's so great to see you bring these videos to light so that people can see 🥺 and maybe learn something. Blessings n Stay safe.... from Oklahoma ❣️
The cost of 20 days in jail + then 10 days in jail could’ve paid 365 days worth of rent for this man. It’s shocking how much the system wastes taxpayers money and people’s lives.
You're intelligent. And pretty.
You are a beautiful woman with beautiful eyes, God says. So, God created man. In His own image, God created man, male and female. Allah blessed them, and Allah said to them,
"Be fruitful and multiply.
Fill the earth and conquer it. Dominate over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over all the beasts that creep on the earth.” God said, “Behold, I give you every plant that has seed in all the earth and every tree that has seed. the fruit is seeded. This will be your food. As for all the animals of the earth, all the birds of the air, and all the animals that move on the ground, that is, all that is alive, I will give every green plant for food.” So it was so.
@Pretty Boy with a username pretty boy and no real avatar 🙄
Yes rich people waste food im sure
Really?
Not cool to arrest people that are down and out. Prayers to him 🙏🙏🙏
GOD BLESS YOU YOUR FAMILY AND LOVE ONES!
Wish I was able to help folks.
He's speaking the truth. Rich folks are most selfish & hateful.
Agree
💯💯💯💯
Yeah their s### don't stink! Poor people help poor people
Jeff Bezos $300 billion and he's building space rockets for himself, priorities huh
Not true
Is there something new and sinister behind this? A homeless person shouldn't be thrown into prison just because they haven't anywhere to sleep.
Exactly is really really mess up what has this world coming to.😭😓😡
Sounds like the dark ages
Why not? 3 hot meals and a cot!
Just people being heartless smh
What is wrong with world, arresting a man because he is homeless…sickos crazy
Without a doubt these people are better in a jail than on the streets. The best solution would be some sort homeless "jail" where they would work until they have enough $ saved up to afford a place to stay. In the end some of these people are destined to be on the streets no matter how much help they receive
@@StarrWolf64 I think you missed the part where buddy said how the cops treat homeless people in jail
@@288theabe yeah - jail is still better than the streets for everyone in society
@Monni Khan a large % of these people are just unemployable period from mental illnesses & drug and alcohol dependencies so that's not really a concern
The world is run by psychopaths and they feel no empathy for these people.!!!!
I was homeless in Vegas from December 2020 to June 2021 when a wonderful woman in Kentucky offered me a room to rent with discount if I managed the homestead. Now we are working toward me buying the homestead. Dreams can come true...b not in Vegas!
This man reminds me of my grandfather. Very quiet and unassuming man. I hope he gets out of that mess.
Is your grandfather homeless to?
@@yokiryuchan7655 no he passed away in 2018. This man just reminds me of him.
You can thank real-estate and big investors for taking all the houses and squeezing everyone.
Oh be real, it's deeper than that, most of these ppl are on drugs, alcoholics. He had an apartment, he knows the drill. Instead of getting a senior living apartment based on his income, he'd rather spend it at the liquor store and sleep free on the streets.
@@mba-okay2583 disability money < cost of affordable housing
What don't you understand?
@@greener336 I understand plenty! He receives SSI, and admitted he prefers to sleep on the streets. Las Vegas ain't about affordable housing. He's breaking the law, and unfortunately he's gambling with losing his only source of income. He should try sleeping under a rock...like you have all your life, because you don't understand. ✌️
@@mba-okay2583 Damn you're a really sad person. So everyone who has lived here in LV for 20+ years deserves to be homeless because they can't afford rent anymore? You sound like someone who has never helped or been helped. I feel deeply sorry for your soul, if god is real may he take pity on your wicked soul.
I'm an investor who is all in for the homeless. I feel for them so badly...I know that I am one bad situation from being their pavement partner. A lot of the homeless have mental instability. We gladly offer help to all those in need. But a lot of them say they want the help but don't actually follow through.
I was homeless in Las Vegas for a couple of days. It's scarier & worse than Los Angeles. People wanted to kill me just for asking for directions. I had to get out of the there fast!
When is enough is enough, regarding homelessness in this country.
I'm 63, and retired. I remember this being a issue when I was a child.
Nobody in this country should living in the streets.
The rents everywhere are ridiculous high. My partner, and i live in Los Angeles County so you already know. Ridiculous high rents.
Mark, thanks for everything, you and your team do. Giving these individuals a voice is Massive.
I will continue to support your channel.
How can you charge a homeless man $1000 for being homeless, heard in Las Vegas it’s against the law to feed a homeless person
There use to be an ordinance about giving food while in a public park, seems like it has been repealed.
Thanks for give this people a voice
He's a gentleman n articulately kind to not be afraid to share the truth about wanting a home, like everyone else 🆗️🛐
Thanks
We all struggle to live on small checks. People are being evicted now because landlords raise the rent too high.
@@euniceacreman5307 not everybody gets a check
This is shameful the way Derwin is being treated!!
He and others need HOUSING as well as other services for help!
Watching IP has taught me so much about people dealing with homelessness. Whenever I’m out and can help anyone in need, I absolutely do it. No matter what these folks have done, are doing, or headed into they don’t deserve to be treated like this. Theirs a lot of differences in people but we are all human beings.
My heart goes out to this man. I will pray for him.
“There was a rich man [nameless] who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day. At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus [Named in heaven], covered with sores and longing to eat what fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores.
“The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried. In Hell, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side. So he called to him, ‘Father Abraham, have pity on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this fire.’
“But Abraham replied, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is comforted here and you are in agony. And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been set in place, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us.’
“He answered, ‘Then I beg you, father, send Lazarus to my family, for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment.’
“Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the Prophets; let them listen to them.’
“‘No, father Abraham,’ he said, ‘but if someone from the dead goes to them, they will repent.’
“He said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.’” - Luke 16 (Lazarus, name of the man Yeshua raises from the dead in John)
Yes within 1 minute in of this interview I also thought of the story of Lazarus and the rich man.
Amen!
My thoughts went to that passage also.
Homeless and disabled and has to be worried about being arrested for being homeless because of trespassing .That is insane, you deserve so much better than this man.
Did you all hear him? He said he didn’t want to take his frustrations out on the next person HE meets, like the rich home owners do on him. He basically said he won’t stoop to their level! Everything will be turned around on Judgement Day. Read the parable of Lazarus and the rich man!
I am hoping things change. This is horrible. I will get involved
This is so hurtful and heart-breaking. Congress, the Senate, and the House of Representatives need to get their heads and butts together to truly find a safe, affordable solution to solve this tragedy. May God continue to comfort, secure , and strengthen this sweet gentleman. Hang in there, Mr. Derwin!!!! #prayersformrderwin.
I with you on that! At the same time, I will not be holding my breath for government to make those changes. If they really wanted to, they would and could have done so decades ago. It is up to our local community and individuals to make a difference.
Sorry, i am not being mean. Congress has zero power over that. Look at who the govener is of the states. It's there responsibility to house homless people in there state.
If there is no funding then it's up to the Governor to cut spending, raise taxes or go ask for federal money.
California did and they did receive funding. I heard they bought a few building and are making them into housing. But I don't know how far that project is.
@@Paula-wz3rw HUD budget approved by Congress! Plenty of tax credits to build senior, handicap and veteran housing! Vegas just does not want it! Hope Colorado shuts off their water!
I think everyone in Congress needs to be homeless for a year and see how they like it.
@@erictylki5315 I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU.
The poor guy it's horrible how people in power can be towards the homeless.....I hope he gets a home and of the street..
YOU are a person in power. YOU can get him a place to stay and off the streets. Stop waiting for other people to do what you can do by yourself.
Thanks Mark!! We should all have mercy on our brothers and sisters that are homeless. Treat them with dignity. They'll be no homelessness in heaven but, lets do more, here on earth.
stairway to heaven, highway to hell
It’s crazy too me how snobby and selfish rich people can be. I’m not the richest person ever but I always give out money to every homeless person I see and meet. I just don’t have the heart to see someone starving and struggling and walk by them like they don’t exist.
Me too. They might be feeling so low
Yes, Jesus said to give to everyone who asks and lend and expect nothing in return. It’s not up to us to worry what they do with the money we give them. That’s between them and God.
I told a homeless man outside a dollar tree no when he approached me. When I came back outside he was waiting for me, he said come on you can give me a $1...I kept walking, and he started screaming and cussed me out terrible. They expect a handout from everyone.
@@mba-okay2583 prob a cry for help
Even if you couldnt or wouldnt give any money, you not ignoring someone may mean the world to them... I realize every day when i see my local homeless people, just a conversation and a geniune interest in their well being will brighten a persons day.
We are all people.
The wealthy are the most condemning, that's true. My dad went missing for 3 days, wearing tattered clothes. He was making his way thru Beverly Hills and said he'd never been looked at with such hatred & contempt. "It's an ugly world," he said.
More I learn about the wealthy, more I understand why they keep getting themselves carjacked in downtown Chicago by the people they starved their entire lives.
It's very sad to see being a disabled man and without any home. So sad to see his condition.
Las Vegas is a resort city & it's apparent that homelessness is not a tolerated lifestyle there. It's also a relatively small city (pop. approx. 600,000) where the PD keeps homelessness under control & will do anything to drive poor people away. May God have mercy on anyone who is forced onto the streets with nowhere else to go.
600,000 residents is not a relatively small city. In fact, a city with that many people is considered a large city.
Amen!
Greater Las Vegas is around 2.6 million
Bigger then you might think
God Bless this man & the man interviewing him!! I don’t have very much but I wish I could help him!
There is something very wrong in a society, when we can turn a blind eye to our fellow human beings suffering! I used to be homeless and you feel like a ghost, even though your alive you feel dead, because no one wants to acknowledege you, youre not even seen as human. You are judged as if its your fault, even if there were outside circumstances beyond your control. We live in a society that helps make people homeless but wants to do nothing to change it. Rents are to high and people dont make enough money to survive. Our government is greedy and selfish. They have forgotten that they work for the people, not Corporations! They resent helping the people. Its a terrible cycle that repeats its self and is very hard to get out of, once youre in it. My family and I will boycott Las Vegas after hearing about this mans treatment. This is disgusting and a violation of human rights!
the people in power are to blame
Just unbelievable that is happening
This is insane man someone give this man a nice warm place to stay he deserves it more than other people out there
Homeless people need to stop blaming other 4 their problems
Sad. No one chooses to be that way. Especially a disabled person!
@@pakliv3243 who would even like this comment it's clearly hatred against homeless people ur sick in the head
@@pakliv3243 No empathy here at all.
'.. the ones with nice homes - they have a true hatred..'
That’s so heartbreaking. I almost made that the title, but arresting homeless people is horrible
I was homeless off and on for over 7 years before I got HUD VASH in Las Vegas
I live in a small island and I see so many homeless people in developed, rich countries. I don't know if I am mistaken but it seems to me that the govts are not concerned about them and rely on private organisations to help. Very sad. I pray God that this gentleman finds a home and can live in peace.
a rich country with trillions in debt? 🤔
These kind of things make me so sad
Same
That is sickening they would arrest him what is this world coming to
How the hell do you fine someone who has no money?
you forget that karma exists
If I was on disability I would use that money to move smaller cities or towns they are way cheaper to live in
Yes!!
easier said then done
Im sorry this even exists in 2022
Guys a sweetheart. Deserves better.
There but for the grace of God go I. These videos are hard to watch, but necessary! We never know what someone is going through and this can be any of us. Compassion and Kindness are free.
Same. But for the grace of Gods there go I.
Those people that live in those nice houses, the cops and the rest of them; all of them they are just one or two paychecks away, one tragedy and or one disability/illness away from homelessness.
Would be hella funny if they magically lost all their wealth and were subject to their own laws and treatment. I doubt they'd like it very much.
@@moguldamongrel3054 exactly

He will be comforted soon enough.
God's patients is running out
I remember when i was a cop i never bothered homeless people its messed up the way they are living why put them in jail if they are not harming anyone. But sadly not all cops think the same so i left the force
I have a homless brother in Vegas,, bless all their souls. I have shared recently my heart break for my own sister too. What can be done to end all this.
i would never let my siblings be homeless
Because the rich people were never in your situation! All people can be a homeless. We should help everyone and not always expect something back for it. Wish him the best
Vagrancy laws are unconstitutional. Public spaces are for the public. Designate more public space for occupation. I think they should be a safe enough distance away from private homes and communities. If not it should be trespassing. If
Where do they expect you to go? Sounds like a fricking nightmare
they would kill them if they could get away with it
Desert gets hot... it also gets cold...
GOD BLESS EVERYONE AND EVERYONE'S FAMILIES AND LOVE ONES 💪🙏❤️🙌👏😇!
It is not a complete law,and if he got a lawyer,he should sue the city for illegal arrest and human right violation
I think he has bigger more pressing problems than finding a lawyer to sue the city. Maybe you could find a lawyer to represent him?
@@emilywood6830 I myself was homeless the police do what the city tells them to do,and I think it's a illegal laws that the police are doing,Dam it this is America,not Russia this man is a disabled veteran pushed out on the.street by greedy landlords,you can not put.a disabled veteran in jail for seeking shelter from the cold it's a law,now that President Ragan threw out the vageracy law
I agree with u but i think yes he woulndt do It cause he Just wanna have a house
@@elmairkdfienfbfmdk This man just wants to live in a affordable apartment like before the city raised taxes,water and sewer, that gets passed on to the Tennant that puts him out of affordable living,and back on the street that is counter perductive
Hope your well!
A lovely man .I feel so sorry for him .What’s happened to mankind that you are arrested for being homeless.And this man is disabled .So cruel .Praying for positive change and an end to all homelessness
I have neuropathy and it hurts like hell! Wonder if he even gets meds to help. I'm disabled from a car wreck yrs ago. I worked til I couldn't. I've heard they can't get a job because they smell or don't have clean clothes or an address
I love the homeless man y’all all gone have it when I get successful
I doubt I will ever be successful but I have a roof over my head and food on the table so I am blessed today
Thank You for helping

There's a Law set in place in Vegas Homeless cannot plot wherever they want anymore.
they should send them to the mayor and the governor house
It would be so awesome if we could all come together, love one another, be kind to one another, share with one another, brreak bread with one another, lwe are neighbors! Blessings❣️💞
Terrible. Trespassing.
I cried in bed last night thinking about this man sleeping under a tarp every night.

I was bicycle touring through Vegas. I stopped to shop at Walmart in my dusty clothes with holes. In one of the crowded isles, a lady stopped her cart an offered to let let me past, as my view was partially blocked from her eyes. When I past by her I said gently "thank you very much, I appreciate it" and she yelled at me. The prejudice is very real.
I feel so sorry for him, he's a man of color and he's homeless, I am in no doubt he doesnt have it easy and he seems very kind but getting so desperate is there a gofundme for him yet?

I dont know why States don't take over abandoned factories or what ever and convert them into a housing area. They don't have to make the mini apartments lined with gold. Just have fresh water, heat and be clean. Min things. Can't cost that much. Geeezzz.
Probably cheaper to give the man a place to stay and live his life in peace. Makes his life better too.
you can open up your home

On the last video that I commented on, they were talking about homelessness being illegal. Someone chimed in to me saying it's not. I told him that Columbia, South Carolina made it illegal. He insisted it's not illegal. CZcams does not allow me to post the links to show that Columbia, South Carolina made it illegal, but you can Google it, and you will find the story left and right. And now, THIS video shows that THIS man has been arrested twice for being homeless. YES, homelessness is illegal.
Like this man said, they want the homeless to go away, but there is no "away" for the homeless to go to. Everywhere they go, they're told to go. Even "away" wants them to go away. East side bounces them to west side. West side bounces them to east side. There's literally no where for the homeless to go. And, they won't build shelters for the homeless to go to. Even the ONE shelter only has five or ten or twenty beds, for 30 days or 90 days, and you have to go. Even during the day while you're in, you have to go. If you don't get back in time, then you don't get back that night. If they're full, you can't be there. With so many shelters, if you're a man, you can't be there. It's for women and children only. There is literally no "away" for the homeless to go to. Yes, it's illegal to be homeless. How bout we make it illegal to be housed? Then maybe the housed will see how the homeless feel.
God Bless Y@ BRO
there is a state park campground on I40 in tennessee that is called frozen head state park for a reason. it breaks my heart to know theres many people that get decieved into thinking when they go to bed warm but end up frozen in the night. fall asleep when your tired with out proper protection on your head. and it freezes or parts of your skin bone and brain get frozen a bit damaged. or a lot damaged. then you never think right again or die or eventually die not even realizing what is wrong

I try to help the homeless the only way I know how with out giving money directly. But they very rarely want it. In my city the Mormon church gives them anything they need clothes food sleeping bags tents. If I offer food when they ask for money because they say their hungery
I've seen them throw it a way. How do you help someone that don't want help they just want money for their addictions? My mother with my 2 other brothers where homeless but I never seen my mother turn down help. It was very humiliating to see my mom beg Bishop's for help we cleaned the church a lot for food and clothes. I have even gone to the grocery store and bought a cooler with ice and food and they don't want it. But I've had my garage broken into and my vehicles 6 times in 12 years. I can understand why home owners don't want The homeless in their neighbor hood.
Damn bro I been homeless for 5 years but live in hotel for 5 years str8 where is his family at or friends
You’re not homeless if you’re living in a hotel
Many families and friends don't care.
I could be wrong but I looked it up that it is against the Law to arrest someone who is homeless and its the cities responsibility to take take payer money to make housing for the homless. ???
They file charges for trespassing because it's a round about way to do it.
The problem is even if you give these homeless people housing all they will do is get high with all their buddies from the street and ruin the place I’ve seen it so many time living in Modesto California most dope houses are section 8
@@b47ance34 🙃
Need a lawsuit for harassing the handicapped plus since most are on SSD affordable housing should also be cited for Vegas lack of housing for them! Same on seniors! Discrimination! One thing if your healthy and young being homeless like I was once looking for work for 5 years around the country and finally getting steady work got a place instead of camping out, shelters, motels and rooming houses! Later I developed health problems and could no longer work full time ended up homeless but camped out mostly so has not pay penalties on IRA and force you to take Social security at 62 so you end up homeless later! My GOP state employer healthcare was worthless and the VA worse! Moved to were I could get Obamacare taken 8 years and 8 surgeries need 2 more! Instead of buying cars I downsized and never bought a home even though I looked at a few! Raided half my IRA and should make it to 67 for social security but has soon has I get next back treatment will go back to work so I can wait till 70 on social security then move and retire where rent is cheap or plenty of section 8 housing. Derwin might want to consider San Antonio they are building a small village for low income on SSI and SSD. Derwin hope you get a home!
Amen
That's insane if true. Just get adequate housing for the homeless or get more shelters. Then the homelessness will drop off greatly. Also, that law doesn't make much sense.Neverthless good luck to him.
Shelters do not end homelessness. They are often horrible places, and now with COVID, they are death traps.
@@InvisiblePeople That's true more now than ever. It's a simple solution. Just get more adequate housing. Some programs regarding homelessness need to be funded more. But that's to much like right. Good interview and good luck to him.
I've heard many homeless would rather risk it on the street than be in a shelter.
Because shelters suck, and now with COVID, they are even more dangerous
Housing should be the #1 priority! Wtf! Cut 1% of the defense budget problem sloved..
Good people
Sane and reasonable.
