A schizophrenic artist stabbed a dog walker to death after being allowed out of a mental hospital despite a warning that she had ‘discussed murdering people’, an inquest heard today. Emma Borowy, 32, was sectioned after stealing and slaughtering two goats in a ‘witchcraft’ ceremony. But doctors continued to grant the mother-of-one short spells of leave from the unit despite Borowy repeatedly absconding and twice being found armed with a knife.Yes, it's this case.
Consultant psychiatrist Dr Dilraj Sohi insisted that ward staff would have asked police for any ‘relevant’ information. He confirmed he hadn’t met Borowy before granting her leave on August 4, having just taken over as her doctor. Asked by senior coroner Tanyka Rawden if this was ‘acceptable’, Dr Sohi said ward notes assessed her as ‘settled’ in preceding days.
Then why are you collecting a salary for not doing your job and actually meeting the people you're supposed to be assessing?
Coroner Ms Rawden asked the psychiatrist whether the speed of her deterioration made him ‘reflect’ on whether Borowy should have been granted leave. Dr Sohi replied that he had ‘reflected a lot’, but that he would probably have approved it even if he had assessed her face-to-face first.
WTAF?
‘We do live in hope that people will improve when we try to work with them,’ he added.
And everyone else takes the risk caused by your hopeless naivety, of course.
Mr Leadbeater was described by his family as a ‘good, hard-working and decent man’ whose job was to drive children with special needs to school.
Why should Sohi continue to be employed? Indeed, why should he not face charges of aiding and abetting Mt Leadbetter's murder? If they had to face genuine consequenses for their decisions, they'd make better ones.
