According to Douglas, she has never seen any family visiting Watson, and the community has been taking on the responsibility of ensuring that he gets meals and clothing.

Donaldson ruled out the May Pen Infirmary as a solution as he said that Watson “thinks he has a home, and from time to time, he will want to return”.
