She was quickly released from the detention center on the grounds that she was "mentally schizophrenic and unable to control her behavior, hence not liable for criminal responsibility." Although she again declared herself mentally fit and capable of bearing criminal responsibility in court, to everyone else, it only seemed like the delusions of someone during a psychotic episode.
She was swiftly transferred to the Royal Mental Hospital for treatment.
After a failed suicide attempt, she came under 24-hour surveillance by the nurses, with sleeping pills and tranquilizers added to her meals. After her case had settled down, the Swallow Clan Corporation from the United Kingdom funded Sherry White's treatment, moving her out of the Royal Mental Hospital and into another hospital facility.
