I remember reading her accusations several months ago. It is crazy how many people who worked there and worked with them and expressed to others privately that they were concerned that they were breaking every medical/psychiatric rule, law, and norm...ignoring the topic of their treatment....but they all just turned the other cheek. Thankfully, they have a governor that ain't a tool and he got things started investigating the accusations quite quickly.

This was the same governor with that huge media disinformation attack campaign, because he initiated an investigation into school teachers getting their info hacked from an education department web portal. The media shamed him for sticking up for his teachers and lied making jokes that he was trying to arrest security "researchers" for clicking "view source code" on the web page. In reality, that school department had a 10 year history of failing security audits and fucking up with security incidents...then this happened and heads were about to roll. The only way to stop it, was to cause a big publicized commotion. It was an election year and the governor is a republican, so the media went ham on it. I remember reading the original news publication with all the objective information in it.....it can no longer be found. It is completely scrubbed from history, including archive.org. Then, I saw early the think tank produced article with a crafty spin, trying to make the governor look like a loon. That false narrative snowballed and fools ate it up. In no time every major news station was repeating it. I still wonder if that crafted spin was made with AI. It was so obviously false, but worked so well on a psychological and media level; like a tiny the spark that burned down half the state.
