I am sorry to say that there are likely many instances of mentally ill individuals being mishandled (that's a nice way of putting it) and treated more like criminals

ignorance runs rampant in many places within the "mental health system"
some people working in mental health really shouldn't be- due sometimes to ignorance, sometimes due to the abusive nature of said individuals, and sometimes there is a poorly planned and executed system for dealing with situations that could be handled in a humane and professional manner - many issues....complicated by many things - and the mentally ill are less able to have their concerns sincerely recognized, and so they become less "visible" and more likely to be discounted
this of course is a generalization
your situation was reprehensible -
be well, take good care of yourself and know that you are a person worthy of respect and compassion (in case this experience left you in doubt)
