Involuntary commitment: If serious mental illness becomes a danger, when is it OK to lock someone up?

KJZZ's The Show
KJZZ

Mental illness impacts us all — from public safety to homelessness to health care. We examine the line between protecting someone’s civil rights and locking someone up if they’re a danger to themselves or others. Plus, a graffiti artist-turned professor on the history and evolution of this illicit artform. That and more on The Show.
