- CBS2 Investigative reporter David Goldstein gets reactions from City Attorney Mike Feuer and Mayor Eric Garcetti after a CBS2 Investigation found workers with the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority throw food meant for the homeless into dumpsters.
This is more widespread than you can possibly imagine.
Please investigate why these LAHSA employees are on the clock and getting paid to shop at target, Starbucks etc. these are billable hours being reported in your payroll system. These actions are automatic grounds for disciplinary action!
Something tells me HR will be pretty busy this week alone!
The tax payers are the one that is also taking a hit
FIRE THEM
That's our tax money going in the garbage. Those agency's are always looking to make money. It's a business. They don't help anyone. SCAMMM
that's messed upppp damn i want to goto starbucks on the clock 🔥🔥🔥
They could have at least brought it to an area with homeless people and set the boxes out. Every one of those people should be fired and the agency should be fined or closed.
Your right there. I volunteered for a homeless charity never got paid and we bagged up and made sandwiches, biscuits , crisps etc and gave out blankets clothing and toiletries. And we just set up a big table the same place 3 times a week in the city centre as that's where the homeless are and all our stuff always got handed out we never had any waste. Even if the people wasn't homeless and I knew them to be vulnerable or drug users they still got. I am a recovered heroin addict and I think things like this always it's always helps to have someone who knows the scene or is a ex addict so the people feel.more comfortable knowing there is someone who understands and ain't judging them . These people clearly don't have a clue and don't give a shit . I hope they get sacked and a lot more
@@lisalep that is good work and congratulations on your sobriety
@@M.C.Blackwell thank you ❤️
I'm glad those idiots were caught. I hope they get fired
They simply don’t give af. They drove around and went to Starbucks and Target… and thru it away to make it seem like they did their job??? Morons!
True morons
Homelessness is very profitable for these agencies. There is no incentive to get people help and off the streets. Salaries should be tied to whether people are actually helped off the street and provided with mental health services. Looking at how much homelessness has increased these past couple of years, they should all be working for free.
I was homeless and lahsa refused to help me.
They get so much money and where does it go if not the homeless?
Obviously you can't distribute all the food if your work hours include personal shopping trips, coffee time & exercise walks. None of the politicians seemed concerned about that.
cant be true they are Christians, so many Christians and so many hungry, i hope Jesus supplies popcorn can't wait til hear these excuses
Exactly.
They should replace those ppl w ppl straight off the streets.
It could be me or you w a roll of the dice. It happens.
Thank you for exposing these people they get so much federal money and don't help the homeless.
defund them then .. 👌
Crooked, incompetent public servants
CBS L.A. did it again THANK YOU TEAM CBS 👍🏽
Wasting water now wasting food...
The miscalculation thinking people would have a heart and want to help the homeless even if you paid them
dude for real how easy is it to just drive in your car ac on hand out food what the fuck
Charge them with felony fraud!!
To lazy to hand out food they would rather throw it away. Nice way of doing business. At tax payers expense. Fire them hire the homeless people to give away food. They will care more then those others are. God Bless 🙌🙏❤💖
Facts.
For Reals
Agreed.
Hold them all accountable!!!!
That's sad 😔 people out there are starving 😢. Make no sense at all.
Because the love of many has grown cold. Greed is at heart of these people. Matthew 24
I'm so happy they are disagreeing with this and shinning light on this
You so beautiful
Yep. Sooooo much waste just goes unnoticed by everyone all the time
@@WorldWideHipHopVideos thank you.
@@heavenly2290 👫
The mayor and city council are just as guilty
Why are we giving money to corporations to do this, when we can put unemployed and disabled to work doing this instead. NEVER GIVE RICH CORPORATIONS CHANCES TO PROFIT AND ABUSE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF CARING FOR THE POOR!!
Ahem… Don’t look now, but your bias is showing. “LAHSA” stands for Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (ie, a government entity). Maybe the real problem stems from the waste, greed, and selfishness found in every setting that combines tons of other people’s money with systemic unaccountability?
@@MJM17 a corporate run program, “supervised’ by government, is what it sounded like in the article… If I am wrong about this one, I apologize… but many of these are run by “foundations “ corporate tax charities, and quite often abused…..
@@MJM17 in his defense, government and corporations are basically the same thing at this point
I remember reading a story from the LA Times about maybe a month ago that said the people that worked for this organization had told the city of Los Angeles that they could not survive on less than $100,000 a year every single employee. After seeing this video and watching these employees do absolutely nothing for their money it makes me even more angry than I was before. I am sick of living in a world where you reward people for nothing I have been self-employed for 30 years and nobody has ever given me anything I had to work for everything I didn’t have somebody just give me $100,000 salary for walking around the park.Recently they found out that homeless apartments in Los Angeles cost over $1 million apiece $1 million seriously how many of us actually live in a house or apartment that’s worth that much money I’m pissed off thank God I don’t live in the city of Los Angeles thank you Jesus
I have seen regular people giving food, clothes and stuff from their own pockets and the homeless always run to them. You can see here in RUclips. They should arrested.
I guarantee if this is happening in one place, it is happening in many.
Horrible! Why would they do that?!
Because they get paid regardless of whether the food goes in a hobo's stomach or in the dumpster. And it's easier to put the food in the dumpster.

These employees filled their own bellies, and couldn't be bothered to give the free food to the homeless that desperately needed food, shame on them workers it was outrageous to see what they actually thought of the homeless, these workers are getting paid to do nothing, they are actually stealing money from their employers as they are not full filling their job description, they should be fired straightaway, it was disgusting to see all the food going to waste.
Damn right fire em all and bring up criminal charges for stealing money.
That's messed up. Fire them.
this is way to much .. really 👀
while most of the poor population goes to bed with their empty stomachs this outrageous waste of food is happening in front of our own eyes ..
please Lord forgive them 😭
The people throwing this food out have never dealt with hunger
Corruption from top to bottom....accountability!!! Put Cameras everywhere, expose all the corruption and post the videos online for everyone to see.
What a joke.
I used to be homeless pay me to hand out the food !
Non-profit mafias. Plus they didn't even bother to break down boxes and recycle😡
They waste way more on payroll than the food they dump ….
I'm sure they are demanding CBS be held accountable.
The average LAHSA salary ranges from approximately $65,935 per year for a Data Analyst to $96,082 per year for a Manager.
L.A. tax payers money going down the drain and it's making the homeless situation worse.
just employees being lazy instead of doing their job .
Those ppl are sick, cold & calice & WHY FO THEY CHOISE to work in social work like this??? They better get fired!
Seems like don't want to have the interaction with the less fortunate.
Then they should get a different job.
They could have given 800 million to habitat for humanity. It makes more sense.
How hard would it be to just go to any homeless area in LA and pass out prepackaged food? These people are evil. It could be distributed in an hour then they could drive around all day on taxpayer gas.
That is just horrible!
And this is why the homeless crisis isn't getting any better. Smh.
swear people are irritating AF 🤬🤬🤬
Fire them.
800 million dollars could have built or bought alot of homes. It would put a stop to being homeless for so many people. But keep giving it to agencies that do not care and profit from someone else's pain.
very true
Send them to Ukraine
Every restaurant does this every grocery store every gas station. Why can't people just help each other.
They should be FINED!
Happens more than you know. Each and every employee should not only be fired but face charges for fraud and dereliction of duty.
It's been happening and they won't say the Total amount of waste .
Now we've all been introduced to the *no speed chase.*
Omg. Selfish people!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dox all of their personal info so the public can determine what to do to with them.
Recall/fire them
"I wish I could answer that, but I'm too proud to admit that I did wrong."
The very agencies designed to help the homeless employ people who do not like them. I was homeless for 4 years. They not only throw food away but they take what they want first. Goodwill throws away donations that are not profitable for their stores. They will arrest any homeless person who tries to take clothes from the garbage. They are suppose to donate them. I stayed in a shelter for 6 months because I had knee surgery. If you comply with all their rules they will assist you into housing. No one ever gets help. They leave the shelter and return to the streets. They told me they had no money to give. I seen things I can never unsee and I hate society because of how truly evil they are to those who have lost everything.
Take The Contract away from Larsa and fire the whole company!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
I DEMAND ANSWERS!
The employees looks well fed. Damn pigs.
Amen!... Outrageous!!!
GOD DAMNIT MAN
Fire all of them? 😭
Humanity at it's finest...SMH
it's the same see the organization that's supposed to be helping the homeless people in Los Angeles county to pass around downtown LA and it's good role they don't want to give up the food give it to the mission with the mission came out the food and at least I lost to get turned over to the missions and give it to them and they'll take it off their hands and they don't have to worry about dealing with the food
They don't care about helping they only care about money.
Shame on them 😕
Thank you so much for your help with this I'm in Colorado and my heart is broke please tell your city commerce the world is watching California shame shame
They could send to school, churches like wawa, target, bjs and others do.
Corruption every where 🤔 😒
shameless one word on problem with how this country treat it poor people in America...
Wow smfh and The LA Homeless really need that food.
Fire everyone that works there.
I’m surprised they didn’t sell it for profit
Where is the oversight of the employees . Take management to task
At least Some one shall get accountable ,, RIGTH ?? 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️ I hope this really happens !! DEFUND THEM THEN !! ALSO CHARGE THEM AS WELL ,, THIS IS A CRIME PUNISHABLE BY LAW ,,, BUT NOBODY’S GET ARRESTED !! WHY ?? 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️ I M SURE THIS IS NOT HAPPENNING JUST THERE , THEY MUST BE SOME MANY OTHER PLACES !! INVESTIGATE IT ALL PLEASE 🙏🙏
The leaders probably told the workers to toss the food.
I stay in the tiny homes in north Hollywood and they throw trays away of food and there’s pppl right outside that are hungry it goes in the trash right next to them insanity
This is why I never have or never will give to charities
Savage! And Sad!
Wish they could get time. Like damn free food, transportation, and your business/duty and u still manage to FUCK THAT UP
Just horrible
I'm guessing it will be like all the other cases like this. Nothing will be done😢
Really?!?! This in infuriating. How would those people feel if they were hungry. What are these workers being told to make them partake in throwing away food. OMG!!!!! Heartless 😥 Whoever has this organization is ripping off people donate. Make it easy and donate in to downtown LA if they are too lazy to do their job. I doubt they are donating their time.
THIS IS HORRID!!!! 😡🤬😷😡🤬😷
Shame on these lazy workers.
Truth is its economical to pass the food to the homeless so they don't ask me for money that i was going to use for the gas tank
Fire them all.
It’s not for them so why would they care? There’s no empathy for anybody anymore. For anything.
yup...outraged.....the mayor will give promotions and raises....fukkkkin sad....
I'm glad they got exposed
Local leader knew about this for a long time if not they are not doing there jobs!!!!..playing the blame game again
that's soooo messssed up !!
This is shameful and lazy as heck.
Apple and water don’t go bad in one day .
rich people 50% going to hell
They should take the package out of there pay and fire them
Lazy workers should be charged for not doing there job correctly
Wait they did it to make it look like it was passed out to the homeless? I thought maybe it was contaminated but this is sinister.
Michael Jackson said it best in the song "they don't really give Fuck about us,"
Ooooh no
There is many people that would eat that food
badiya video....
I work for the homeless and we throw our food away because we get three hot meals daily plus snacks during the day.
