The Watergaters were caught because they broke Guitorman's 4th Law: "If you go back you'll be caught." And that's what they did.

Typewriter Room

A long time ago,before I heard of VCR's,or even Pennhearst,a local news station showed some footage of life inside
Pennhearst.
I don't know about all of the children there,but some of those shown didn't even seem to be self-aware.
Some had giant flat heads and couldn't feed themselves mashed potatos.Others were bent in half and swayed rapidly from side to side like a bobbin in a machine.Still others had holes in thier limbs that were healed
so you couldn't tell if they were born that way or something else happened.
I'm not saying these children don't deserve love or help but-come on!
I had a aunt who worked briefly for a 'rehab' center where they kept the 'worst of the worst',some with thier hind legs twisted around thier neck.When rules change,funding is cut and families don't care what can you do.
None of thes institutions were built to hurt people,but as with anything some will be treated unfairly while others should have been dealt with more firmly.
As for the buildings, when you take the life out, a certain sadness settles in...........
