Brings back memories of a psychiatrist who was killed. She was the daughter of Christian missionaries and specifically chose a community with a large indigent population for her practice. She would routinely come in at 3 in the morning to talk down some one (almost never with insurance) with a psychiatric crisis. So one day she commits a clearly psychotic man to the locked ward because she (correctly) felt he was dangerous. But this guy became outraged when because she said he was a danger to others. So they let this guy go home out of the locked ward for an unsupervised lunch break. He then proceeds to sneak a pistol hidden in a lunch pail into the locked ward. When the psychiatrist was doing her late evening rounds (about 9 PM), he just walks up and kills her with a gun shot wound to the heart. <A former resident in psychiatry at UMass Medical Center in Worcester was shot to death in a North Miami Beach hospital by a patient she was treating Thursday night. Dr. Christina Smith, 39, was working as a physician on the locked psychiatric ward of Parkway Regional Medical Center when a 68-year- old patient shot her twice in the chest with a .380 semi-automatic handgun, Officer Warren Hardison of the North Miami Beach Police Department said. The patient, Knolly Sterling of Miami, was under a court order to undergo treatment at the hospital> encyclopedia.com And so died the most truly unselfish physician I ever worked with. (I worked with many who were not overly concerned about money but she was the only one that seemed to want to work 24 hours a day for free.) And it didn't seem like anybody ever paid much attention to what for me was a rather extraordinary occurrence.

Insane killer caught after 3 days on loose in Wash Sep 20 10:10 PM US/Eastern By TIM KLASS Associated Press Writer SEATTLE (AP) - An insane killer who slipped away from the staff of a mental institution on a field trip Thursday to the Spokane County Interstate Fair was recaptured Sunday without injury more than 180 miles away in south-central Washington state. With a helicopter overhead and dozens of federal, state and local law enforcement officers swarming around Goldendale, Phillip Arnold Paul, 47, seemed ready to surrender when he walked out to the Goldendale-Bickleton road about 22 miles east of town shortly after 4 p.m., just as search personnel arrived at the scene, Klickitat County Sheriff Rick McComas told The Associated Press.
