Washington Square Park squatting ‘Jesus’ strips for naked rain shower
Maybe it was his baptism.
The homeless man who calls himself the “Son of God Lord Saviour Jesus Christ,” and has taken up residence in Washington Square Park’s fountain, stripped naked for a cooling shower in the rain on Saturday.
While stunned parkgoers gawked, city officials once again looked the other way.
Cops and city Parks Department workers have kept their distance all week from Matthew Mishefski and his new home inside the Greenwich Village landmark.
But the hands-off approach seems to have emboldened Mishefski’s clothes-off philosophy.
The shower scene occurred as demonstrators gathered at a Black Lives Matter rally just beyond the fountain.
Afterwards, he munched on an apple and donned a sarong, remaining shirtless.
