Say 'no' to New York State forced electroshock!!!

[undergroundpanther]

The State of New York won its battle in court to order even more forced electroshock for Creedmoor Psychiatric Center inmate "Simone D.," who has already had more than 200 electroshocks, also known as electroconvulsive therapy or ECT.

Background: Simone D. vs. OMH Forced Electroshock

The New York Court of Appeals recently upheld a lower court order forcing Simone D., an inmate at Creedmoor Psychiatric Center, to undergo 30 more electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) treatments against her will.

Simone D.'s attorney Dennis Feld said, "Her battle cry has been muffled by her being primarily a Spanish language speaker in a unit where no one except her MHLS on-site attorney speaks Spanish."

However, Mr. Feld said her records reveal that when approached by the State clinicians for her to submit to more electroshock, Simone stated clearly enough in Spanish that, "Electroshock causes more pain. I suffer more from shock treatment!"

New York State’s Office of Mental Health (OMH) has a long-standing policy of vigorously pursuing legal action to force ECT on unwilling people whom it determines are not capable of making their own decisions. Interestingly, the capacity of people who agree to ECT is never called into question.
