Patient dumping captured on video:
A videocamera recorded a 63-year-old hospital patient dressed only in a gown and slippers being dumped onto a skid row street – a controversial practice that has come under fire from police, politicians and homeless advocates . . .
. . . The videotape, recorded by a camera mounted outside the downtown Union Rescue Mission, shows a taxicab making a U-turn and driving out of camera view. Moments later, a woman appears from the direction of the cab, wandering for about three minutes on a street and a sidewalk before mission staff take her inside the building.
