In the Netherlands there are also institutions for those who committed crimes but were held less responsible because of mental illness. To protect society and to treat them. Not quite as stict as prison, but they don't have freedom and are often violent.
They can sometimes have social contact with the outside world, e.g. by having a football or chess team that plays in the league. Only home matches of course.
I played chess against some of these people inside once, you do keep wondering what they did to be there...
