Testify in support of a secure forensic facility at the Windward State Hospital.

Several patients walk away from the Windward State Hospital every year.  Some were a danger to themselves and to society.  Lack of a secure facility to house dangerous forensic patients is unacceptable in the Kaneohe Community.  Please testify in favor of SB2579
