Woman Held For 8 Days In Psych Ward For Saying Obama Follows Her On Twitter Even Though He Does
A New York woman was locked up in the psychiatric ward of a Long Island hospital after claiming that President Barack Obama follows her on Twitter. But theres only one problem he actually does.
It all started last year when Kam Brock tried to get her car out of a New York Police Department impound site. When she walked in to the Public Service Area 6 NYPD station, she was upset, but by no means, her lawyer explains, emotionally disturbed, as the police claim.
The NYPD had her forcibly committed for a 72-hour psychiatric evaluation that soon turned into an 8-day ordeal.
Now, Brock is fighting back and suing the NYPD and the hospital for falsely imprisoning her.
She recounts, that next thing you know, the police held onto me, the doctor stuck me with a needle and I was knocked out. I woke up to them taking off my underwear and then went out again. I woke up the next day in a hospital robe.
She explains that the whole Obama comment was only brought up to try to explain the type of person I am. Im a good person, a positive person. Obama follows positive people.

she was delusional.
A bizarre story, but how did she even get locked up in the first place??
