mentally ill people really get no justice.  the "system" doesn't budge an iota in it's procedures and rules to accommodate a mental illness.  if you show up in a wheelchair, on crutches, with a white cane and a dog - they can help.  every disabilities group i've met almost always focused 90% of their program, meetings, etc to physical disabilities.  lip service is paid to mental illness - but that's about it.  
 sorry to hear ean has mental health issues. most people in these types of stories do. the woman that drove her SUV around inside the safeway store? is she sick?   very likely so... try to  understand the comments people make here are based on the story, as written.   sometimes family and/or friends get into the comments and they're very emotional, but no one else on here knows the young man, knows of his illness.
 this situation does have a comical element - for whatever reason he was found covered in marshmallow stuff. i wish him well and all his advocates help him thru this.
