Unfortunately my comment was a response to Even So. 
"In all honesty though, doesn't it seem like a huge number of people can be defined as "mentally ill" these days? How many of the homeless in tent cities are lumped into that category as well? How many resources are those who are fortunate enough to get to work 40 hours a week because we are not labeled as mentally ill expected to put forth to contain and care for the mentally ill?
If there is a reasonable, cost-effective solution I'm interested in knowing it."
It's very frustrating as a nurse to hear someone mention that they work 40 hours a week to pay for the "resources" used up by mentally ill. 
This tragedy which occurred in the death of this innocent woman could have been prevented. It's a tragedy and a failure of the current mental Heath care system.
