He told the Town executive council that Johnson County Sheriff Maynard Schneider has not visited Oakdale and avoided invitations to inspect. Gillman criticized hospital officials for releasing dangerous individuals without adequate protection but said existing measures are sufficient and that outside activities are preferable to confinement. He outlined added security steps including barred windows, planned guard towers, and radar devices along the inner fence linked to a master board inside the facility.
