these shopping trips etc. are designed to help rehabilitate people and allow them to try to connect to the real world. There must be hundreds of similar trips made with no problems but as soon as someone made a mistake everybody is branded an idiot by people who have no idea of compassion or rehabilitation. I bet that this woman will be recaptured without having caused any further problems. She would not have been allowed out if anyone considered her a grave security risk whatever she did in the past while suffering a mental illness. Try thinking rather than reacting! It's good for the soul.
