@Sean:

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Meredith wasn't locked up in the closed ward until after her stint as the Benefactor. The first time she escaped could be seen as a fluke, but the second time, she faked her own death and used Brunsky to escape.

As for the "cut security some slack" topic, they probably assumed nobody would bring a Kitsune to a place where their powers would overload (which caused the power outage, btw).

Even if they did, the mountain ash was a last ditch effor in keeping the supes locked up, but Mr Naked Flame Man(TM) came and burned that, too. Honestly, how were they supposed to safeguard against a Hellhound? It's not like they had the Ghost Rider's magic Flame-Erasing Bullet(TM).
