We can add Robert Williams, currently being tried for the 19 hour-long rape and torture of a Columbia University grad student in her Hamilton Heights apartment, to the list of criminals who have passed through the halls of our favorite homeless shelter--apparently living there for as long as a year. We can also add this to our list of reasons why this place has got to go.

Update: We got the following note from Dept. of Homeless Services Press Secretary Heather Janik...
Hi Errol,
I hope this email finds you well. I wanted to touch base and let you know that we researched Robert Williams case history and he was not ever a resident at Bedford-Atlantic, as Angel Rendon’s blog suggests.
Thank you, have a good weekend,
Heather Janik
Press Secretary
City of New York
Department of Homeless Services
