LAS VEGAS -- A mental patient who says he was dumped out of state with no help and nowhere to go is suing the state of Nevada.
James Flavy Coy Brown, 48, was a patient at Las Vegas' Rawson-Neal Psychiatric Hospital. He says state doctors gave him three days of nutrient drinks, baggies of medicine and put him on a bus to Sacramento. Brown has no family or friends in California. His daughter picked him up after Brown ended up at a Sacramento homeless shelter.
