Sentencing: Life in prison without parole for barber who set homeless man on fire - Homicide Report - Los Angeles Times

it's not illegal to be homeless. Unfortunately, Ben Martin a 31-year-old white male didn't like the fact that John McGraham was homeless and living on the streets in his neighborhood. In fact, Martin disliked the fact so much that he doused the Graham with gasoline and set fire to him. He burned him alive. like many of our homeless population John McGraham was liked by many of the people in his vicinity and they fed him on a regular basis. like many of our homeless population John suffered with untreated depression. This may have been contributing factor to his homelessness. In any case he caused no one harm and simply tied to survive as best he could. The long and short of it is that we have many people that fall into this same category and I get to hang out with them on a daily basis.
I look at my job as a blessing because I get to serve those that are not only less fortunate than myself but the ones that no one else wants anything to do with. I am blessed and I know that every day of my life I know that I am blessed.
People tell me that my job is difficult and it would be really hard to do it. I don't think so. I believe that I have a divine calling and it is to serve. My belief is that he who has much as he who gives much. I am blessed and I am graced with the ability to bless others.
I and the guy on the street.
I believe that my job is to make life a little bit easier for all the people and I come in contact with.
I have a little part-time business that I use so that I can continue to be of service.
