Hawaii Patient Dies in South Carolina Facility | Honolulu News

A Hawaii patient died by suicide at a South Carolina mental health facility, sparking outrage after investigators found the center failed to provide critical records — claiming they were sent to a law office for “security,” violating state law. The facility’s lack of transparency and accountability has raised alarms, with the patient’s attorney warning this reflects systemic failures. Hawaii’s health department, which pays nearly $2 million annually to house patients there, remains silent, citing privacy — while state officials demand corrective action by July. Families and regulators now question whether Hawaii should even continue its contract with this facility. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
