Why was Samara
released from the mental institution?
Its clear to me from the psychiatric tapes that Samara was making
zero progress, so my question is why did they release
her?
This was, what, 20-30 years ago right? Back in those
days it was common to hold someone in an institution for life, even
against their own will.

Re: Why was

i believe anna asked for her release, for they only went there for
help with her insomnia (the reason the doctor gave, i believe)...
their intention was not to keep her locked up.
i guess if a
family member admits you, they can get you released as well? i have
no idea ^^;
the staff probably had very little idea of
samara's malice, they could have been as sympathetic eared as rachel
when she viewed that tape.

Person 1: She's only a child
Person 2: That's no
excuse
Person 1: Isn't it?

samara...
I found it odd. Especially after going to the official website and
seeing a line that said "continue heavy sedation for safety of
staff"
They were probably glad to be rid of her.
There
is also an excerpt of a letter that references the death of the
chief of staff at the institution.
Hmmmmmm.

Release
I thought the answer was obvious: Richard made them release
her. Not because of any sympathy for his daughter, but because he
knew what she was capable of and knew that if she were kept for
further study, eventually her evil would spread; that's why he stole
her files and went to great lengths to cover up her existence. He
felt it was better to keep Samara isolated in Moesko Island than out
on the mainland where more and more people could learn about her.

Re:

Also didn't we determine that Samara did some rather nasty things
while in the institution, from reading thru her files on the Ring
site?

Re:

Well, you don't get recommended for long-term sedation for being a
well-behaved patient.

Re: Re:
Release
I think probably the simplest answer to why she was released is
because Anna loved her. Anna probably convinced Richard to help
spring her from the asylum and then they took her home to deal with
her on their own terms. Better that than allow her to live and
languish in such depressing, clinical and unfeeling environment,
where she would only live as a chemically saturated vegatable
right?
Anna's actions were no better but in the end, she
probably thought she was releasing her daughter from a horrid life.
Remember, she's a horse breeder, and when a horse is suffering they
shoot the horse, don't they? Okay, I'm not serious about the very
last part but I couldn't resist.
