Excerpt
Celia Vega is a 21-year-old woman, born in Puerto
Rico, who is brought, by the police, to the emergency room of a
city hospital in handcuffs and leg chains. She is interviewed by
an attending psychiatrist, called by the emergency room staff for
a consultation. Ms. Vega is a tiny, appealing, childlike woman with
dyed red hair who is dressed in hospital clothes. Her face and arms
are covered with bruises and scratches from the events of the night
before. She is smiling and seductive, rolling her eyes, crossing
and recrossing her legs.
