From the Hartford Courant: Over this past spring and summer, 31 employees of the Whiting Forensic Division of Connecticut Valley Hospital were suspended, and nine were arrested, due to the extended abuse of a 62-year-old patient. Now, three more Whiting employees have been transferred from their jobs and are under investigation for an alleged assault of the same patient.
