+) In the case of Elizabeth Packard, with her husband essentially permitting her kidnapping and then placing her in an asylum with little to no intention to remove her, could he be seen as insane? He irrationally admitted his wife, who had bore 6 of his children, into an insane asylum on the basis of differing beliefs. To add to that, he was legally not allowed to admit her again but still attempted to. How was he able to do all of that without himself being questioned for mental stability?
+) When women were sent to the insane asylum, as seen with both Nellie Bly and Elizabeth Stone’s account, they were not told they were in an insane asylum. While Nellie knew where she was, Elizabeth did not. Why were they not told where they were? Did the physicians worry that them knowing would create backlash? Was this consistent with all admitted patients and not just women?
