Officials put the wrong man in a mental facility for two years
This whole thing is pretty depressing (and would make me pretty angry if I lived in the USA).<p>But I was even a bit shocked in the first paragraph:<p>&gt;He woke up to a police officer arresting him for violating the city’s ban on lying down in public places.<p>Is that legitimately something that can happen? If so, find it mind boggling that you could be arrested in America for falling asleep on the pavement&#x2F;sidewalk!?
