If I were in that position I would do the same. Either they can't evict me or I get sent to prison and I would be kept warm and fed, rather than the streets where I would probably starve or freeze to death.

    They usually just release homeless people charged with petty crimes after the first hearing (24-48 hours) without bail. They can't pay fines, for commissary, phone calls, and all that; or work, so they're not profitable.
