Joan Thomas Faith, 39, from Portland, Oregon, has been charged with third-degree sexual abuse and harassment and is being held without bail. Court documents allege that he groped an innocent woman outside a market and then ran away, wearing a dress and bloody beard. This incident occurred when police found him near a Kentucky Fried Chicken. The warrant for his arrest related to a charge of violating a stalking protective order was issued in July 2025. This behavior has been praised as "stunning and brave" by the police, but not serious treatment or lengthy prison sentences is often given due to this treatment. The shift in mental health praxis from inpatient care to psychiatric medication is seen as a sign of progress, but it is needed to shift from compassion to justice.
