Like I said brother he had delusions of prosecution and a messiah complex.....adding to which he may have been bipolar.

The whole deal is that in psychology and psychiatry you have to follow certain rules to ensure the rights of the patient...you also rely on government funding to run most mental health hospitals which usually takes a back seat to "more important matters".....well there is a BIG reason that like 80% of homeless people are unmedicated/self medicating(with drugs and alcohol) schizophrenics....it's really bad in California, I think Santa Monica maybe where they have a big problem with that.


As for this kid....he was never detained against his will (which can be done but is hard to do). The policies in place at the University and for the state of Virgina made it difficult to do anything about him. He obviously needed medication and LOTS of therapy....and he probably would never have left the funny farm once he was put in but it would be for the best for everyone
