KY Officials Ship Mentally Ill Man to FL

[Wireman]

This is a pretty bizarre story... :eyeonyou::eyeonyou::eyeonyou:

 

Police in Kentucky Town Ship Mentally Ill Man to Florida, Defying Judge?s Order | Kentucky Center for Investigative Reporting

 

At least they shipped him to the correct state I guess. #GlassIsHalfFull

If what is in the article is true, house needs to be cleaned at the Carroll County Police Department.

 

I will add, I had a slightly similar dealing with Carroll County PD several years ago. I see their cavalier attitude towards the mentally ill hasn't changed.

Wow. Just, wow.

So, how does Chief Michael Willhoite keep his job after a stunt like this? Not only went against a judge's orders, but put the public at risk putting this disturbed guy on a public bus.

Wow....just....wow...I can't say what I said when I read that.

[MJAlltheWay24]

That story is definitely bizarre. Doesn't sound like real life at all.

Fire every last one of them, and charge them to the fullest extent the law allows.

We don't often agree UK but we are in the ballpark together on this one.

Is anyone surprised by this?

[TheDeuce]

Wow... Disturbing that these officials were stupid enough to see something like this through.

Dude got a free trip to Florida! What's the problem? :lol:

Maybe this is why we get these crazy stories from FL. Kentucky is just late to the party. Every state ships the mentally ill to FL.

 

All joking aside, this is messed up

CCSO is not the responsible party here. The Carrollton PD is.

I grew up in the next county over from Carrollton. So, no. It's a strange town and county.

And now they had to charge him with a new crime in order to extradite him to Kentucky. The offense? Escape from jail, a felony.
