Mayor Adrian Fenty's administration Wednesday defended a city decision to send a $2.2 million bill to a mentally ill man who gouged out his own eyes while under the District's care.
Peter Nickles, Fenty's general counsel, said in a letter dated Wednesday that the District was bound by law to bill Frank Harris Jr. for three decades of room and board at St. Elizabeths hospital.
