October 16th Incident

On October 16th, 2022, Daniel was kicked out of his housing, ending the Second Housing Arc.

Background

Daniel was homeless for several months. During the summer of 2022, he worked with his case manager Reva to secure housing with assistance from the Shields Foundation. On August 31, 2022, Daniel moved into a house ran by a woman known as Miss P. He was the only client living in the house. However, within a few days after moving in, Daniel had already caused damage to the house; he put several holes in the wall, and broke a window during a meltdown, to which he attributed to the trolls. Over time, he caused more damage to the bedroom as he ripped out sections of the walls and broke the same window again, leading to the window being boarded up. The same month, the address to the house was leaked online, resulting in numerous unsolicited deliveries daily, including many unpaid pizzas and a glass dildo, which Daniel attributed to purchases made by Miss P. The constant deliveries also caused Daniel to do more damage around the house.

On October 16, 2022, a meeting was called between Miss P and Reva, as well as other staff from the Shields Foundation at the house. The purpose of the meeting was to address the many deliveries of pizzas and sex toys, as well as the damage Daniel caused. Daniel began "secretly" recording the meeting shortly after it began. During the meeting, a woman begins to speak to Daniel about his online behavior and interactions with trolls. She also notices that Daniel is recording the meeting, which causes Daniel to get upset; he tries to justify it by claiming he's legally required to do so, before kicking something and then locking himself in a bathroom. He then begins to argue with Miss P and the other staff while they call the police, and Daniel kicks the walls, while also accusing the Shields Foundation of “blaming me for my fucking career.” He tries to get them to listen to him, but they do not, further intensifying his meltdown.

After his meltdown and the cops arrive, Daniel tries to explain in length the events involving his fame and case managers. Following this, he was then trespassed from the house and issued a $1,000 citation. This incident marked the final time that Daniel had access to organized housing, and he would remain homeless ever since. The closest place he's had to a home since then has been FCI Englewood.

Recap

Miss P lets in two men and a woman from the Shields Foundation, and woman 1 and Daniel start conversing. She questions him about his online activities and the trolls, but they continually interrupt each other to the point it upsets Daniel, so he kicks something then runs upstairs and locks himself in the bathroom.

It then cuts to him arguing with Miss P, a woman, and a man while they call the police and he kicks the walls of the house. Daniel tries to get them to listen to him, but they don't, which was a misstep on their part as it agitated him even more than he already was.

It then cuts to an upwards shot of Daniel where he is mostly seen talking to the same man from before while hitting himself, things around him. and accusing them of not listening or caring about him or his "procedures", them being that they should call his current entertainment manager and Reva. The man is trying to get him to calm down and convince him that they have his best interests in mind, but he rejects this because they called the police.

Daniel, after a lot of arguing, faces the camera and complains about them calling the police and not listening, saying that they won't listen to him. He then re-enters the situation, where the man tells him that they called EMS instead of police, saying that they were worried about his head that he apparently put through wall multiple times. Daniel complains to them, and "explains" his nonsense procedures, which escalates the back and forth to an argument.

It then cuts to another clip of Daniel laying down his phone, proceeding to get sternly questioned by a female police officer. He tries to go on to her about him being a singer and songwriter, but she tells him she already knows who he is and steers the conversation back on track where they talk about "what happened last night", referring to what was previously written.

It then cuts to him sitting and putting his camera face-down on a table. The police officer from before talks to Miss P about Daniel leaving the house, and that they would give him some necessities and a citation and send him on his way. This records the audio of Daniel getting his stuff, while the man from before tells the policewoman and another man that he doesn't have any food and shouldn't be sent on his own.

Nothing happens until Daniel grabs his phone and leaves the house. He climbs into the back seat of a car with the help of a social worker, where the social workers confirm his information and ask him questions before the video cuts to him walking down a street.

(Daniel is in the living room and Miss P greeting two men and a woman from the Shields Foundation walking into the house, smiling and greeting him.) (Red is woman 1, blue is Miss P, black is Daniel) What's up? it's nothing to be, like, discussed. It's nothing to be discussed? I tried to call Reva, my case manager, and she will not cooperate. Whatchu want her to cooperate and do? With? Well, she's supposed to be... -I can't get security Mhm And I can't get all my stuff set up without Reva and... my... shield company. Working all together. What do you want her to get set up? My- p- stuff for my safety! Popularity stuff that I've talked about at the meetings! That's what you talked about at the meetings, but then you give the address out online? So what's your- I- I never- I never gave my address out online. You never gave your address? You haven't shared your location on videos? Nope. Nothin'? Nope. So... people just randomly order stuff and send stuff to the house- It's- It's- listen to me! It's because I'm so popular... Mhm That I get spotted in this own fucking neighborhood. You get spotted in th- I- yeah! People... I- It's not my fault nowadays everybody could have a cellphone, okay? So all it takes is for me to go outside the front door, around the block through the school down here, let's say, and my location is fully breached because people are on their phones takin' photos of me. Because I'm that popular. So you're not doing anything on your settings? You're not sharing your location- I- I- I have already have all of my... uhm... *sigh* all of my notifications turned off, I have my phone... uhm, location tracking turned off- I have that off. Uh huh If the police wanted to track me down for any reason, they can't because I have my location tracking turned off. You got it turned off? I have- So- so- I have everything that I can possibly do, I have, like, set already. -What happened when you broke the window upstairs? That- that happened, I have already discussed this. That happened the first week I was here. The rest of the conversation is mostly uninteresting and redundant, until woman 1 (probably not Miss P) discovers he is recording [3:09]. She asks why, and Daniel, agitated by her previous questioning, breaks after she tries to interrupt him. It- it looks like you're recording, so it's like, why does everything need to be so public with you? That's what I'm trying to figure out. He- It's for my safety because- You have to- Because you guys- Sto- BECAUSE YOU GUYS WANT to kick me out onto the street! -Nobody wants to kick you out! If she wanted to kick you out, she would've then put a 30 day notice for you. I'm pretty sure- Robert- -that you- you- broke the window! Miss P has been dealing with you! Robert's not been trying to kick you out, I know- I don't think- I- I- Have his number. Okay! But Robert's not trying to kick you out. You don't have to record anything. I am required to, for my company, and for my protection. What company? Daniel then stands up at [3:46] in the video and, while it isn't caught on camera, seemingly kicks a metallic object. Hey! Hey! You can't do that, Daniel, you can't bust someone's... Daniel proceeds to run away from the people, going upstairs as Miss P and woman 1 try to get him to calm down. You can then hear them talking about calling the police as Daniel flees into the bathroom, slamming the door and locking it. [cuts to him facing his camera down at woman 1, while they both try to interrupt each other.] A- Hold on- Hold on! Listen to me! You- Hold on, listen to me! You said- -now! LISTEN TO ME! You're terrifying him, and- LISTEN TO ME! Stop interrupting me! It doesn't work like that! Listen to me. You straight up- We're- LISTEN TO ME! YOU STRAIGHT UP- -deal with that! Daniel then turns around and starts kicking at what is either a wall or a door. He then drops his camera as we hear a second man tell him to stop, as everybody else is trying to get him to calm down. He picks it back up and continues arguing. YOU STRAIGHT UP- YOU STRAIGHT UP Get down from- LISTEN TO ME! No!You can then hear, and partially see him punch a wall as Miss P and woman 1 tell him to stop. You can see both men down there, and they begin to get more involved in telling him to stop. LISTEN TO ME! [He then turns the camera around and continues hitting the wall. You can now hear somebody call the police. Daniel's voice is audibly tired and rasping.] You need to listen to me THAN RATHER INTERRUPT MY GODDAMN SHIT! No! 'cause what you're doing right now is des- [Daniel starts hitting the wall again] Hey! Chill out! You- You straight up- You str- Listen to me! No! [He punches the wall again] I called the po-po! It's over, you finna stop doing that- [Daniel then starts kicking a closet door behind him with the heel of his foot.] Hey! YOU GUYS ARE NOT COOPERATING! AT ALL! We're not cooperating? You're not cooperating!He then turns the camera around and starts jumping and audibly seething with rage. [cuts to a shot, this time facing towards Daniel, of him recording himself and running around, sad voice] [Daniel starts making long, exasperating sighs as man 1 inaudibly tries to talk to him] You guys wanna blame me for everything! It's not my fault! We're gonna blame you for the holes you put into the walls! NO I DIDN'T! THE REASON WHY THAT'S HAPPENING IS BECAUSE YOU GUYS ARE, LIKE, BLAMING ME FOR ALL MY FUCKING CAREER! Yo, do you see your head? [He then takes an overexaggerated breath inwards and starts kicking something metallic while making whimpering noises] Oh my god! You guys wanna blame me for- for just the fact that I'm popular! You guys don't listen to me! [You can hear Miss P calling 9-1-1 in the background] You guys don't listen to me at all! [He starts crying as man 1 tells the 9-1-1 operator he has mental issues] You guys straight up don't listen to me! Man, we love you bro! BUT YOU GUYS DON'T LISTEN TO ME! YOU GUYS CALLED THE POLICE INSTEAD! Because! I- I- I-Daniel then puts the phone down and starts punching himself in the face repeatedly. I- CLEARLY THAT I'M ANGRY NOW BECAUSE YOU GUYS JUST DON'T DO ANYTHING! I've been working on myself. [Lolwut?] I DON'T CARE! I've been working on my- myself, and- listen to me! listen to me, 'cuz.
