Rachelle Santiago, therapist accused of stalking soldier, denied anti-anxiety medication, attorney says

This is not a love story. The therapist-accused-of-stalking-a-soldier soap opera continues. This time, therapist Rachelle Santiago‘s attorney claims that his client’s treatment while locked up in Leavenworth may be considered “cruel and unusual” punishment,” the AP reported. 

Santiago, 43, is accused of stalking the unnamed soldier

and his family. Last week, a federal judge ordered Santiago to be committed for up to 30 days while she

undergoes a psychiatric examination to determine whether she’s competent

to stand trial. But now her attorney is saying she’s being treated cruelly and denied her medication.
