Police reports: Luxury condos become hub for unlicensed sober living homes

We're taking you back to the luxury townhomes in Mesa that we told you about last May and how they transformed into a compound for unlicensed sober living facilities. Subscribe to FOX 10 Phoenix!

FOX 10 Investigator Justin Lum has been following problems at the Canal on Baseline (COB) for several months. Police reports we’ve obtained from 2023 provide a wider scope of the complex.

COB contained several sober living organizations, housing dozens of vulnerable people and the calls for service were constant, at a rate of nearly every day last year.

Despite multiple state investigations into the property not licensed for sober living, not much has been done.

In our two-part investigation, you’ll see how sober living programs hide behind LLCs and operate unlicensed rehabs while shuffling vulnerable people between units, sometimes abandoning them with limited liability. WTF OVER???
