Willowbrook Institution Follow up by Geraldo from his 1972 visit

In 1972, Geraldo Rivera did an expose on Willowbrook Institution in NY.  If you have never heard of Willowbrook, if you have never thought what an institution looked back in the 1970's, if you have ever wondered about institutionalization in the 60's and 70's, watch this follow up story about Willowbrook.  You will forever remember this place.
