A homeless man was charged with a felony for camping. He's one of the first

  • Joseph Lamont Williams was arrested in Nashville for camping in a public park, becoming one of the first homeless people in the U.S. charged with a felony for camping.
  • Tennessee's no-camping law, which makes sleeping on public property a felony, has been criticized for being cruel and making it harder for the homeless to find jobs and homes.
  • After pleading to a lesser charge, Williams was released from jail after nine days but chose to return to his spot under a picnic pavilion instead of going to a shelter.
  • Homelessness in Nashville is rising, with advocates arguing that laws targeting the homeless only push them out of sight without addressing their needs.
  • The law highlights ongoing tensions in Nashville as new developments arise and many homeless people are left without support or options.
