When DHHS argues again to slash mental health, remember these two cases

The Jessie Petersen is just the most recent example. Petersen terrorized a family getting food at Wendy's and hurled racial slurs.

Erik Neal who I covered in the past is another case. Neal is constanty getting arrested, doesn't show up for court and is one example of the negative impact on Old Town and downtown businesesses. 

A waste of police resources because of a failure of government leadership on the local and state level.

Both would not have had numerous cases in the system if they had mandated court treatment and mental health services available that are seriously lacking in Humboldt County.

Yet, DHHS staff who argued against Laura's Law has another item on BOS agenda tomorrow to slash mental health.
