Crazy

In "Crazy," journalist Pete Earley shares a personal journey as he navigates America's mental health system after his son, Mike, is diagnosed with mental illness. Through a year-long investigation in Miami-Dade County jail, Earley uncovers the troubling connection between mental health and the prison system, revealing how jails have become the new mental hospitals. He interviews a wide range of individuals—from inmates to mental-health professionals—painting a compelling portrait of the challenges faced by communities across the nation. This work serves as both an investigative piece and a critical commentary on the state of mental health care in America.
