Asylum
By James Newton
- Release Date: 2001-03-12
- Genre: Fiction & Literature
A behind the scene fictional account into the world of inpatient mental health services and forensic psychiatry offers real insight into the legal entanglements that are more often created: a system that can be manipulated and crafted for the pursuit of revenge and retribution. The criminal justice system that purports to offer a quality of care frequently creates a new sentencing guideline that sees the more reasonable and humane Not Guilty by Reason of Insanity (NGRI) transform into "Life Without Hope of Freedom".
