Visiting Dadaab, Turkana and Lodwar with Oxfam, Scarlett said: “It’s very touching to meet the people in the community and hear the stories, and it brings on a couple of emotions.  Absolute shock, disbelief at the conditions at whiche these people are forced to live, and a feeling of a certain sense of community and humanity that’s ever present.”

The quirky couple has been the center of controversy since they skipped out on numerous hearings in a Santa Barbara courthouse for illegally squatting in a home they used to own and for defrauding an innkeeper after skipping out on a hotel bill.

The pair requested asylum in Canada – insisting that “star whackers” who targeted other famous celebs such as Heath Ledger are out to kill them.

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, the Quaids forfeited $1 million in bail they posted following their October arrest for felony vandalism by remaining in Canada instead of showing for their California hearing.

RadarOnline.com can confirm a motion for extradition of the Quaids from Canada has still not been filed at this time.
