Dan Weiss, one of seven Department of Corrections special needs unit officers, scans the street for mentally ill offenders under their supervision who are in violation or have outstanding warrants. Many offenders are homeless or live on the street. About once a month officers patrol at night checking to see if offenders are where they're supposed to be. A computer in the van allows them to check the warrant status of offenders.
