Yea the kind of person that calls dispatch a dozen times a day ranting about conspiracies isn’t going to magically start being reasonable because they have the phone number for a case worker.

It's pretty clear this woman was drugged

Toxicology results do not support this claim.

got hurt and shit everywhere

Last time I got hurt and shit everywhere I didn’t harass innocent people for years about it.

Mental illness is almost certainly at play here and I would be completely unsurprised if the alleged victim were diagnosed with schizophrenia or bipolar.

Also it’s a justice system not a fucking therapy system.

She needed empathy.

She needs a straight jacket and a bed pan.

You know what would be justice? The case worker getting them a diagnosis.

Toxicology results

“I reviewed the results but did not see anything of concern,” Bruton wrote in the police report, without noting what drugs were tested or if any came back positive.

So a non doctor decided that the result was negative, and not inconclusive. Some drugs will not test positive after a short time frame. People use these drugs for that purpose.

A case worker being the primary contact, would explain this and funnel people into the care they actually need. If you don't want this, you don't want society to take care of it's citizens.
