When the Safety Net Disappears
July 19, 2009. South Park, Seattle. Neighbors rush from their homes toward screams and breaking glass, finding two naked women in the street-one dying, one standing in absolute terror. A chilling whisper spreads through the crowd: "Isaiah." This wasn't random violence. This was the predictable endpoint of a system designed to fail, where a young man's descent into psychosis was met with bureaucratic shrugs and budget cuts. Three lives-Teresa Butz, Jennifer Hopper, and Isaiah Kalebu-were on a collision course, pulled together by forces far larger than any of them. What happened that night was horrific. What's more horrific? It didn't have to happen at all.
