It's been more than 5 years since a whistleblower reported that his co-workers were abusing a patient at Whiting Forensic Hospital. Len Besthoff of NBC CT Investigates talks with Al Shehadi, the patient's brother and conservator, about his vision for an improved mental health system in this digital exclusive report. CLRP's Executive Director, Kathy Flaherty, provides context and a personal perspective.
