  • 6 Days on the 4th Floor: Last Intermission

    I’ve been meaning to finish writing this blog, but the ‘situation’ has continued to evolve and my attention has been focused elsewhere. I’ll be posting the 6th Day once I get my ruling and I’m officially released from the stigma of the detention. Then I’ll be following up with a detailed discussion of how being…

  • 6 Days on the 4th Floor: The Aftermath (Day 5 and beyond)

    I went back to the 4th floor ward where I was being kept against my will, not by force, but by signatures on a piece of paper. Two doctors had signed me in and Justice Hurley deferred judgment on the lawfulness of that detainment to the Board of Appeals. This body would only be able…

  • 6 Days on the 4th Floor: My Denied Habeas Corpus – (Day 4)

    It’s difficult to provide a precise description of the day of my habeas corpus back on April 10th, 2015. Too much time has passed and pretty much everything that happened is on record at the court, so there isn’t much need for excess detail. I’m going to skim over most of what happened that day,…

  • 6 Days on the 4th Floor: My Life of Certified Insanity (Day 3 – Part 2)

    Picking this story back up two years later is more difficult than I would have liked, considering how things have gone, but i’ll do my best to fill in the details. When I suspended the recounting of my experience two years ago, I was up to the day of my Charter Challenge. As I’d been…

  • 6 days on the 4th Floor: Recap

    Before I go into any detail regarding the story of the last two years, I figured i’d provide a brief recap of the events. I was detained on April 7th, 2015 and released on April 13th. Despite not having a diagnosed disorder or previous hospitalization for treatment, no treatment while I was detained, and released…

  • 6 Days on the 4th Floor: In Libro Vitae

    Luke 12:2-4,  KJV  “For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known. Therefore whatsoever ye have spoken in darkness shall be heard in the light; and that which ye have spoken in the ear in closets shall be proclaimed upon the housetops.” It’s been almost two years…

  • 6 Days on the 4th Floor: Hiatus

    I’ve been giving it some thought and will have to suspend this rendition of my story at this point. I’d planned on providing Misha’s recounting of her arrest, followed by my day in the Supreme Court to have my habeas corpus denied. However, these matters are to be brought before a Supreme Court Justice at…

  • 6 Days on the 4th Floor: Interlude (Threats and Misinformation)

    While working on the next installment, I’ve received my first specific death threat against myself, my family and my home. In writing this section, I’ve realized there is some rather unfortunate false intelligence floating around out there that led to these death threats occurring. The Western Star falsely printed on April 16th that I had…

  • 6 Days on the 4th Floor: My Life of Certified Insanity (Day 3 – Part 1)

    I woke up on the third morning more than a little groggy. It’s bad enough I had to sleep in a strange location, unwillingly taken from my family and friends and involuntarily detained via a certification of insanity, but the effects of my untreated sleep apnea were becoming uncomfortably noticeable. Thursday, April 9th, was a…

  • 6 Days on the 4th Floor: My Life of Certified Insanity (Day 2 – Part 3)

    To pick up where I left off with my last post, I had just requested a second opinion on my initial assessment. Shortly after requesting and thinking my transfer to a new doctor was denied, I found out my wish had been granted. I’m not going to go into too much detail regarding the follow…
