In the Slammer

In ministry, one sees how the world really works, and it is not the sanitised version one often sees in the media. Here is one example among many. Years ago, a woman went to hospital complaining of suicidal thoughts. She was duly admitted -- then they took her into the basement and locked her up. I found her there, in this cell. "That's impossible!" said the psychiatrist. "It's illegal! We don't lock anybody up!" He himself had had her locked up.
