on the phone to his relative, complaining about police and claimed to be falsely accused.

On the 29 of October Formulation meeting was held:
Care coordinator ‘s feedback: This is only the second time meeting Simon. There have been
issues with reports he is assaulting other residents in his council accommodation.
Nursing report: He appears paranoid on the ward.
Interview with patient:

Mr Cordell appeared very agitated and vocal and was keen to put across his opinion that he had
been illegally detained.

Mr Cordell reports issues with police actions in regards to not giving him the ASBO folder properly -
this was left outside instead of giving it to him directly. Mr Cordell continued to explain other problems
with the police’s treatment of him. This includes the metropolitan police having placed a photo of Mr
Cordell in a folder in regards to a party he had no involvement with. He denies being involved in any
of the parties mentioned in the ASBO. Mr Cordell spoke at length about the injustices surrounding his
placement on curfew and the ASBO order.

He describes how on multiple times doctors have tried to assess him under the MHA and he has
explained to them at each time the situation with the police. He was once placed under a section 2
and was able to appeal his section.

Mr Cordell reports the neighbours (?2 floors up) trying to deliberately disturb him by making a lot of
noise and flushing the toilet multiple times. He feels they want him to get distressed and go upstairs
to address them. They have been doing this over the last 4 years and are doing this throughout the
day. From Mr Cordell’s flat you can even hear them talking - there is apparently very poor sound
proofing.

Mr Cordell has described a council official as having forged statements and falsely accusing him of
threatening his life. Mr Cordell reports that he is being assaulted by his neighbours as is his partner’s
small child. He feels the stress from this situation may have been linked to his partner’s miscarriage.
Mr Cordell denies any acts of antisocial behaviour, even in retaliation. At every point where he
approaches the upstairs neighbours, he states he calls the police to ask then to “protect” him.

In regards to the recent arrest he reports the police attended due to a fraudulent call from the
neighbours. The police tried to hand him a breach of harassment order which Mr Cordell ripped and
spat on the paper. The police officer then yelled that he had spat on her. He was then arrested for
assault to a police officer. This charge was dropped in the police station and he was referred for a
MHA.

Mr Cordell is currently on benefits. He reports the expensive hardware he owns (e.g. 70000-pound
bookmaker) he buys broken and second hand cheaply and fixes them. Mr Cordell works from home.
He built a new model constitution - a community interest company which was a charity farm.
