Sex Offenders Living Inside City Shelters - A few weeks ago, we reported on the city homeless shelters you may have stayed in before: hotels. PIX 11 reporters Jay Dow and Mario Diaz joined us to show these "homeless hotels" in New York City that started housing families that are in danger of living on the streets, sometimes next to paying customers.

Now, they are back to focus on the former Pan American Hotel that became a full-time homeless shelter in 2014, and their findings are worrisome to say the least: the shelter is home to level 3 sex offenders. As part of Chasing the Dream: Poverty and Opportunity in America, we take a look this hotel and how this affects those that are trying to rise out of their situation.
