"Custody" is defined as "the protective care or guardianship of someone or something". Part of the responsibility of the state when they take "Custody" of a person is to ensure when they are released that they are safe. Doing anything less (and this article indicates the FCC as a default just pushes those released onto the street) is an abrogation of their clearly defined responsibilities. If this poor woman was the first shoved out into the cold it would be one thing; but she was far from the first.

Hopefully, this woman's family has a sharp lawyer and the patience to win a multi-million dollar lawsuit. The FCC is obviously a craphole run by idiots who employ thugs and psychopaths. The public sector isn't going to correct this awful crap, civil court on the otherhand can force changes.

Fire any and all involved.
