three so-called street kids brought attention to a growing counterculture population here in the bay area and really around the country, and journalist vivian ho covered the story back then and has written a book entitled "those who wander: america's lost street kids." and it's really powerful reading. vivian, thank you so much for joining us. >> thank you for having me. >> really nice to have you here. i want to talk about the challenges emotionally about writing this book in a moment, because i know it wasn't easy, some of the things you had to talk about. let's talk quickly about the murders and what you learned in your research. >> so there were a pair of murders that happened in the bay area in 2015. there was audrey carey who was gunned down in golden gate park, and two days later steve carter was gunned down in marin county. and it came out through investigations that they were done by three street kids, laila ali goode, and morrison lampley. they were later arrested in portland, oregon. >> in the press of doing this

research, what have you learned now about the case? >> i had extensive interviews with morrison and jonni ngold. i want to figure out what drove these kids to murder in the first place. what drove these kids to live on the streets. and what i learned was what drove these kids into the street is what is driving millions of kids into the streets every day. >> let's talk than in a moment. what drove them to kill. did you get an answer to that? >> they were looking to rob these two individuals. basically, morrison hayes lampley, he wanted to get off the streets. he didn't want to live like this anymore. he didn't want to live to survive and he was looking for a way to escape. laila goode was his girlfriend and they were looking for a way off. >> so they needed money? >> they needed money. and that was the only way they could think to do it. >> you say in here, vivian, this book isn't about answers to the problem but really highlighting and understanding the problem. we have talked so much, and we're here on television, but also just everyone you speak with in this community talks

about the growing homeless problem. it is so in our face now. but i think what we're not talking enough about and what you address in this book is a lot of them are kids. >> a lot of them are kids. and it's a really heartbreaking situation. what i'm learning is what drives these kids into the streets, it's hard to find a way to stop that. it's a broken foster care system. it's abuse. it's broken families, neglect, abusive parents, drug addiction, mental illness, and just a variety of issues that are driving them into the streets. >> this constellation sort of tragedy that is setting these kids with no place to turn out into the streets. >> what happens is once they get there, it's like throwing fuel on to the fire. they have all these traumas that they haven't dealt. with and once they're on the streets, they have to live to survive, and everything is a hard scrabble. it's just that much worse. >> are these kids, vivian, particularly vulnerable? do they become prey for other street people? >> for sure. i think when you put a bunch of

hurt kids around other hurt kids, they are that much more vulnerable with each other. >> do the adults take advantage of the kids too? >> i think it's always a fight for survival. and when that happen, it's always hard. >> is there in your research, in your experience wandering the ets, is there something in common that most of these kids have? was it abuse at home? was it some reason that they ran away? is it a certain socio-economic group of kids? anything like that? >> that is what was so both fascinating and devastating about this. every kid's story is unique, but the issues that drove them to the streets were all very similar. they all suffered abuse. they all had some form of abuse, some sort of neglect, some sort of issue with their parents or background or whatever. and they ended up on the streets, and they ended up not having an option how to get back out. >> vivian, you are going to be signing your book at manny's tomorrow at 7:30 p.m.
