"The instrument Dr. Watts used looked like a butter knife. He swung it up and down to cut brain tissue. "We put an instrument inside", he said. As Dr. Watts cut, Dr. Freeman asked Rosemary, for example, to recite the Lord's Prayer or sing "God Bless America" or count backwards;... "We tried to estimate thus, how far to further cut, based on how Rosemary responded." When she became incoherent, they ceased cutting."

Holy fuck

Then they put her in an institution for the rest of her life, all because they thought it would hurt their political careers.

In response to her condition, Kennedy's parents separated her from her family. Rose Kennedy did not visit her for 20 years. Joe Sr. did not visit his daughter at the institution at all.

Just the most soulless people ever.
