Experts blame campaigns against the police since the death of George Floyd
Andrea Suarez can recall in vivid detail the first body she discovered on the streets of Seattle.
A volunteer who cleans up drug-infested neighbourhoods, the 48-year-old found decomposing human remains in a portable lavatory near a children’s playground in 2021.
The victim is believed to have suffered an opioid overdose, one of many Suarez has stumbled upon while sweeping the streets of needles, burnt foil and other drug paraphernalia.
