[QUOTE="ANewLife4Me, post: 764835, member: 32799"] My husband actually works in mental health here and the baker act is only for those who are wanting to commit suicide or harm another. Even so if they are taken to the mental hospital it’s for a 3 days stay only then to be put right back into the streets to continue as they were. Unfortunately my husband deals with this everyday and while so heartbreaking just for us but, so so many as well. 💔 I have been in contact with the law and filled out papers for a restraining order. I have video of her attacking me, we had a cop come out the night she left who witnessed her aggression, she left willingly on her own and yet, my petition was denied as the judge cited not a reason for eviction. In no way did I elude this was for eviction, she had already left for goodness sake! I tell everyone I see about this restraining order being denied and say….I clearly see how people are being abused and murdered, the courts are not for the victims that’s for sure. 😭 She is still in jail and has a court ordered competency evaluation that needs to be done before they can proceed. I have emailed her lawyer of places I have taken her for help and medications she has been on. Also since my last post her finance company found her car and have had it towed. Now for sure there is no shelter for her when she gets out. We live in a small town and there are absolutely no resources here, no shelters not even within walking distance. Her license was suspended yet again as she did not pay for her car insurance, we have gotten her license back SO many times it’s expensive! I just don’t see without transportation how she will make it. This is her 2nd car repossession there is no way anyone will finance her for a long, long time. So in emailing her lawyer I begged for her to be placed in some sort of treatment facility, ordered by the court. She has never spent any time in a mental health facility. This recent jail time she did not like the treatment she received at an emergency room, became hostile towards staff and wound up hitting one of them on the cheek with a closed fist. Time before that she was jailed for driving under the influence and received a felony for that as she licked the officers arm…..really? time before that putting her fist through someone’s window, another time driving on a suspended license. 😔 It’s all I am going to do, am waiting on pins and needles wondering what the outcome will be and how it will affect us in the future. 😭 [/QUOTE]
