The residents of Boerum Hill have been contending with an unpleasant quality of life problem recently—someone’s been crapping on the sidewalks and in people’s front yards with increasing regularity. Last Tuesday, The Daily News devoted an entire article to the issue, with Sue Wolfe, president of the Boerum Hill Association, confirming, “It’s a big problem – it’s gotten worse over the years and much worse recently.” Certain clues, most notably the location of the evidence and the presence of tissue paper, had convinced residents that the perpetrator had two legs instead of four but no one had caught the person in the act. Until yesterday. Here it is from the horse’s mouth:

For the second time in two weeks I got pooped on. This time I saw her. I live on Dean Street between Hoyt and Bond. At 6 a.m. this morning my wife heard…well peeing…she woke me up and I went to the door. We live in the garden apartment so I looked up…and saw butt – thus I yelled…”HEY MOVE YOUR ASS!!!!” This was the first time in my life that I literally meant it.

After the pooping I threw on some clothes and set out to find the poopertrator. I did not find her. But my wife did hear the woman outside while I scrambled for my clothes, she did not run, just kept talking to herself. It turns out that the infamous stoop pooper is a clearly rather mentally ill black woman with very short dreds.

It actually sounds a lot like the woman who we found giving herself a makeshift bath in the doorway of our ground floor during our renovations a couple of years ago. Does this description match with any other sightings?
