An inmate from Wisconsin's youth prison was transported to a hospital last week after a staff member gave him a psychotropic drug intended for his roommate, marking at least the third time in five weeks the wrong medication had been given to someone staying at Lincoln Hills School for Boys.

This latest "incident" occurred when I posted another similar story on Thursday May 12. Lincoln Hills and Copper Lake are under federal criminal investigations-yet these adjudicated boys and girls are still at risk for many other traumas here in Scott WALKER's political colony.

1. Kick for visibility and discussion-this is UNACCEPTABLE. n/t

9. And not just in the prison system.

Iatrogenesis (medical errors in hospitals and adverse drug reactions to medications) is, according to the Journal of the American Medical Association itself, responsible for 225,000 deaths annually - making it the third leading cause of death in the United States.

Many of those may have been hard to prevent, true; but around 100,000 or those were the result of brazen error and malpractice.

2. Moar drugs for our troubled youth who have trouble with drugs.

And they wonder why it's not working.

3. This is way beyond that, bemildred-it is a structural crisis brought on by Scott WALKER and his

handlers. Wisconsin leads the nation now in the total number of black males incarcerated too, and dig how that unindicted sleazebag Wall tried to stay in "the profession" of "corrections"..

I agree that Big Pharma and "the rapists" of the torturer schools in the APA's add to this.

4. Right, and they would not be doing that if they were not bought and paid for stooges.

And they really like to use people who can't fight back too, like the poor and AAs and latinos and women and anybody without money or clout. I got that.

5. That's what Gauleiter WALKER is about-I live in his WISCONSIN and we are going to take it back. n/t

6. Yeah, you should. nt
