Sex Offenders Living Inside City Shelters

Special | 26m 47sVideo has Closed Captions

Tonight, we focus on the former Pan American Hotel which now shelters sex offenders.

A few weeks ago, we reported on the city homeless shelters you may have stayed in before: hotels. PIX 11 reporters Jay Dow and Mario Diaz joined us to show these "homeless hotels" in New York City that started housing families that are in danger of living on the streets, sometimes next to paying customers. Now, they focus on the former Pan American Hotel that has become a shelter to sex offenders.
