2 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the concurrence““A court need not consider whether to allow forced medication for purposes of rendering the defendant competent to stand trial, if forced medication is warranted for a different purpose, such as ... purposes ... related to the individual’s dangerousness, or purposes related to the individual’s own interests where refusal to take drugs puts his health gravely at risk.
