I can’t tell if he’s a rapist or just mental and on drugs. They took him to a hospital before taking him to jail. Maybe if he’s mental the judge will order him in a Nervous Hospital but it’s hard to say. Just don’t know anymore
You are correct though. Plus when they had long term nervous hospitals the people were not treated well. Look at Willowbrook school, is what made Geraldo Reverio famous.
We had a similar "horror show" in MA. And I don't really doubt that these places might have been mismanaged, underfunded, and the patients abused.
But in the age of Fake News, and Leftwing propaganda, I think I have a suspicion that the Nervous Hospitals were portrayed in a very slanted light and might not have been quite as bad as people like Geraldo wanted us to believe.
