Medical center food isn’t good enough for this obese sex offender

No matter what anyone thinks, if the state is going to incarcerate a person, they must recognize medical, physical and mental needs, and provide what is needed. The author calling him "crybaby" is clearly not professional and uncalled for; personal feelings must be set aside and deal with the needs of the person..

10-3-2014 New York:

Talk about a big crybaby. A 560-pound former pimp and convicted sex offender called The Post to whine about his taxpayer-funded stay at a Queens medical center — saying his bed was too small and the food is scanty and bland.

Kenneth Harvey, 58, says the Peninsula Center for Extended Care and Rehabilitation in Far Rockaway has made his five-month stay a “bad dream.”

“My body is literally bending the mattress like an accordion,” Harvey said in his private room, which costs Medicaid and Social Security up to $10,000 a month.

“A lot of times when they bring a meal up here, almost nothing is on the plate,” he said. “There might be lettuce and tomatoes and two pieces of bread. That’s what they call lunch.”

The supersized slacker, who was once 700 pounds, said he griped to the state Health Department and Queens Legal Aid to no avail.
