Report of the Regents for 1922

The Board of Regents reports an influx of forensic admissions. A change in state law allows judges to send defendants to the hospital for thirty days' observation and competency evaluation. The hospital lacks separate facilities for these patients. They are in the same wards with other patients, posing a major security risk.
