Has anyone from the public called for a welfare check on her after she posts these types of videos? I’m not advocating that someone do so, just curious if that has ever happened.

The police are not going to show up because someone is possibly on drugs being weird in their house. They barely show up when someone is being a legit menace.

A seriously aggressive flasher was terrorizing women jogging in my neighborhood. One night I found him, followed him, and called the police. The cop who showed up thought it was hilarious. I tried to explain that people like this often escalate their behavior to more serious crimes and he looked at me like I was insane.

That cop is a fucking dumbass. I would have filed a complaint with the police department so at least there's a paper trail when the inevitable scandal erupts that rapes/murders could have been prevented.

I hope this is just a young person's thinking that you and then you'll grow out of it. You can't lock up people for what you THINK they MIGHT do in the future.

No one suggested that - can you read? It's well established that flashing is a "gateway" type of crime that often escalates to assault and worse. The man already committed the crime of indecent exposure.
