coordinator at the time Goodie told me that Mr

Mr Cordell has presented with paranoid and

Perception:
Mr Cordell denied hearing voices or having
delusional perceptions. However, he has some
paranoid and conspiracy ideas about the police

To self: denied any thoughts or intentions of self
To others: Poses risk to authorities like the
council staff due to the nature of his arrest,
however, he does not pose any immediate to a
member of the public.
