Virginia's mental health facilities have major and widespread problems.
That's what Governor Jim Gilmore and Attorney General Mark Early will announce tomorrow morning.
Gilmore is finally making public a scathing consultant's report of the state-run mental hospital.
The so-called Geller Report concludes the facilities suffer from inadequate staffing to provide even quote "a minimal level of care."
It also says most of the facilities overuse restraints and solitary confinement-- and those that don't make excessive use of medication.
The report comes while the U-S justice department is monitoring the state system in the wake of two patient deaths.

Media organizations have been fighting for the report's release.
