Documenting Psychiatrists Behaving Badly
Of all professions, psychiatrists seem to get into the most trouble. I have been collecting stories about psychiatric screwups for a while. Sadly, it has been disgustingly easy to do. We post stories with links to the original sources. We couldn't make this stuff up if we wanted to. My Name is Sickmind Fraud.

Investigating a Psychiatric Hospital After Child's Suicide
Authorities are investigating a Champaign, Illinois psychiatric hospital where a 12-year-old hanged himself last week, about two months after he was taken into protective custody because welfare officials feared for his safety at home. The Illinois Department of Children and Family Services is looking into whether The Pavilion properly monitored Ronald Hamilton of Bloomington, Ill., who was under a suicide watch when he hanged himself with bed linen on Aug. 11. He died four days later after being removed from life support.
