[Mrs. Don-o]

As a person who was plunged into "ICU psychosis" when I was on a ventilator, hallucinated audiovisually and kinesthetically, and tried to physically attack nurses and respiratory therapists, I know for a fact that a hallucinating person is not morally accountable for what they are doing.

This woman needs psychiatric treatment However, I don't think she should be released upon some declaration of therapeutic success.

Isn't there an alternative consisting of "psychiatric confinement for life"?

I don’t buy it. If one murders, regardless the “cause”, that person should be executed in return.
