I don't understand how this guy was still walking the streets. After the many times he beat his wife and even hit his infant step-son in the head that could have killed him, putting a gun to the wife's head, you would think that he would be serving some serious time. I have read of many cases, even some I know of the people personally, that went from abusing to killing. Perhaps it is time to change the law so abusers will be dealt with more severely. It is time to thank of the safety of the population in general over the civil rights of individuals. I copied this paragraph from the article I posted above. I think it proves my point about the rights of the population over individual rights. Perhaps these people would not have died if this man's civil rights had not been protected, even though he was a threat to people. Peak Behavioral Health said in a statement today, "We are deeply committed to providing the best patient care. We never discuss whether someone was or was not a patient at our hospital, and we never discuss any information about our patients. Preserving the confidentiality of this information is not only a matter of policy, it is federal and state law."
