San Diego
On a regular day, Melissa Smith, who is from San Diego, California, was doing her usual routine when she saw the beggar again. However, something felt strange to Melissa, and she chose, following her instinct, to do some sleuthing of her own. As she stood by her car, she saw the panhandler and her child, a boy, leaving. The next thing she saw was what spurred her into action.

East Lake Village Center
The beggar simply created a spot for herself at the East Lake Village Center near a shopping plaza, to be precise. There is a wide range of goodwill stores, dentists, restaurants, hairstylists, and, of course, retail in this shopping district. The pregnant beggar knew for sure that in this place, there would be many people willing to give their extra cash to the needy. But what she did not expect was that someone like Smith would watch her.
