It sounds to me like the "officers" at Bridgwater State "Hospital" need to stop checking their huanity at the door to their workplace. I am glad that they are going to get in trouble for this. Someone DIED because of the fact that these people chose not to LISTEN to the fact that Jousha was calling out saying that he was having a hard time breathing and to physically STOP restraining him.

I am disgusted at the fact that a person died becuase of neglgence on the part of Co's restaining someone instead of getting medical attention for this person. Had this been done in a hospital setting in free society instead of the state's care, the hospital would be sued and the people responsible would be fired!!!!
