    The outrage should rightly be " Why are these people with mental health issues let out on the streets"?
    While an institution is horrid, the person is there because of their own medical condition.
    When they are let out with the general population "unsupervised/supervised" without taking their meds or having other drugs or alchole that they can lose the plot and harm people!

    The Psycologists, lawyers, judges have lobbied for integration back into the community for these persons with probably good intentions, but if the P/L/J had to be held accountable if the person was released and did harm they would have repercussions, then more custodial sentences would be given.

    Jails are for criminals and mental facilities are for those with mental problems. Let's start using them for what they were designed for!
