Yeah, I saw those clips when he originally broke that story.
He recently had a bit of an 'anniversary' regarding breaking that story and what's become of many of the residents there. He still keeps in touch with one of them and they were on the TV with him. Their mentality was of low intellect but in no way in need of being locked up away from society. He seemed a very pleasant person and one who would actually be fun company. I think it was the one person who he actually talked to while in there. The guy was lucid and intelligent enough that when asked what it was like being in there he replied, "It's Hell. This place is Hell." Very sad.
I can't even begin to describe the creepy feeling when Doris and I went through that building in Seaview Hospital.
Today, homes and condos stand on the grounds where Willowbrook was. Next time we go through Staten Island, I'll try to go past and stop and take pictures of what's there now. Maybe in the summer I'll go up specifically for some stuff like that.
