just curious..?

I’ve seen some of the input in the community threads on this subject but most of it is old so I was curious on the updated takes related to the “Ben and Jerry’s lady” (i.e. the lady that begs outside of Ben and Jerry’s daily). I’ve heard some say or allude to her being a grifter and was wondering if that’s true, nevertheless she can get pretty mean. Sometimes when I’m walking in that area I hear her screaming bloody murder on bad rain/snow days and I do feel pretty bad, but wanted to know some of your experiences with the situation
