Reply to comment by Lootcifer- in Detroit police fire 38 shots in 3 seconds, killing Black man by UnitedPatriot65

They actually got him into a mental health ward at a hospital a few months ago but he escaped. He’s stabbed 3 family members in the past including a 7-year-old child so definitely had no business being on the street. What sucks is his family seemingly knew that and tried to get him help.

Serious question, how was he able to escape? Are these mental health wards not secured?

We don’t know, I’m not familiar with the facility or it’s funding/procedures/ etc. Clearly a failure.
