I've been treating a patient at my private asylum for the criminally insane near Kiev for some years now. This patient is a depraved maniacal mass-murderer, psychopath and cannibal by the name of Gustav. Whenever I enter his cell I have to be accompanied by four orderlies in full body armor whose job it is to protect me with their lives (if need be). Gustav is kept chained up and has a mouth guard on after a particularly gruesome incident some years ago when he tried to eat one my orderlies, while yelling for us to bring him Fava beans and Chianti. He's a fearsome fellow.. almost seven feet tall with a black shaggy beard - incredibly strong and with the prominent forehead and hooked nose that phrenology teaches us is the unmistakable sign of evil genius.
For the first few years we attempted to treat Gustav using the standard methods available to us under Soviet psychiatry. These included electroshock therapy, hydrotherapy and, of course, the whip. We would have lobotomized Gustav long ago except that he's related to a high party official and they won't allow it. Recently, an interest was raised in treating him with powerful antipsychotic medication - now available from the West. The problem is that he refuses to take his pills - he spits them out at me and my orderlies! I was thinking of stamping on his foot at the same moment that I'm feeding him a pill - surely then the shock and pain would cause him to reflexively swallow? I have prepared a pair of heavy regulation-issue Soviet boots with cast-iron heels especially for this -..but I need to know that this is both ethical and moral. What do you think?
