A lack of resources': Brattleboro man's multiple altercations at local hospital highlight need for mental health services
A 22-year-old man accused of causing multiple altercations at Brattleboro Memorial Hospital was arraigned Friday and released on the condition he receive another mental health evaluation.
In October 2022, Kyle Hamilton, of Brattleboro, received a no trespass order after an incident in which he made threats toward hospital staff and had to be forcibly removed from the property.
Between then and Jan. 5, when Hamilton was taken into custody after another incident at the hospital, he has been back to the hospital causing problems “about 10 times,” said Deputy State’s Attorney David Gartenstein during Hamilton’s arraignment on Friday.
