From Joe N. via email:
Hi Venice! My mother is suffering from mental illness and has moved to Venice Beach without a home. She said she was sleeping in a garage in an alley on Washington Avenue Pier. I have no clue to this area, and unfortunately that’s as specific as I can be. Her name is Torie and she is 48 years old.
She lived in Kansas City before moving to LA. She also has been through a couple hospitals and mentally-ill-reintegration-into-society-type places in the LA area. Now she is living on the streets, and last time I heard from her was on Facebook. My guess is she walked to a library to send me the information.
I don’t want to file a missing person’s report, but if anyone spots her it would truly help me locate her. I’ll be coming to search for her in person next Saturday (25th) to take her to temporary housing.
I’m not asking for much, just that if there is a chance for me to locate her then I’ll take anything. I would be in awe if anyone would be able to help me narrow my search.
Thanks for the help.
Joe
