"Starting Sept. 1, the inability to recognize one’s psychiatric condition, or anosognosia, will be grounds for a law enforcement officer to detain an individual if it could lead to harm.
In such cases, a doctor would evaluate the patient’s mental health within 12 hours, and, if deemed necessary, could initiate a series of steps that could lead to a judge deciding whether to court-order treatment. Anosognosia is a result of physical changes to the brain, according to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, and is common with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder."
Damn think of the racketeering and money that will be made by this. This is something to be abused by real career criminals. As if the system doesn’t already abuse mental health. Something very bad is happening.
Really it seems like people should be obtaining defense quietly.
