Hunter v. United States · ¶39

Mr. Hunter objected to one part of this recommendation. He did not dispute that he has suffered from mental health issues. He even said that he “want[ed] to take mental health programs.” Pet. App. 24a. But, he added, “I don't want to take any medication. I don't drink. I don't use drugs. I don't even curse. I don't want to have to be forced to medicate.” Ibid. In response, the court did not find that forcing Mr. Hunter to take psychiatric medication against his will would further any particular goal of criminal punishment. But it imposed the condition anyway.
