    A woman wants to kill my boyfriend because he told the police that she needed to be put in rehab. She indeed need to go to re-hab for excessive heroin and crack use. She was a danger to her life as well as others. They let her out of the facility a few hours later for this reason... she was detoxing and therefor no one could make a decision weather she was phycotic or not. So she is free to roam around again, within the same day she was taken into custudy.
