As this book has shown, insane offenders against the law are routinely convicted and warehoused in jails and prisons, and the jail and prison populations swell beyond the limit of health and decency, and the watchdog groups issue statistics and the media report them, and people wonder what can be done, and then they cease wondering.
Sometimes a little reform does occur. The US Supreme Court ruled in 2011 that the overcrowding in California prisons was unconstitutional. The high court sternly ordered that the correctional system population be reduced--to 137.5 percent of design capacity.
Mass shootings by people in psychosis create freshets of outrage--not over our poor and porous identification, care, and oversight of mentally disturbed people, but over the laxity of our gun-control laws. Gun-rights activists hear these outcries, and call, not with any great passion, for mental health care reform. Then the conversation drifts to other things, until the next massacre.
Police shootings of mentally ill victims, mostly black and poor and unable to find help, inspire similar freshets, with similar results.
Suicides take the lives of thirty-eight thousand Americans a year. About 90 percent of suicides are the result of mental illness.
