baby being lost.
He denies having a mental health illness and states he will get out of here once he has his
laptop containing video graphic proof and was requesting a tribunal. During the course of
the conversation he refused to acknowledge he has been sectioned and was adamant he
would be able to leave but was not forceful or physically attempting to leave.
When he was seen by ward doctor on the 26th of October Mr Cordell feels he is in hospital
because the police have “falsified” a report that led to him being kept on a curfew for years.
He proceeded to talk at length about circumstance that led him to be charged for handling
of stolen goods and suspicion of burglary in 2013. He believes the case was handled poorly
and is sure the police were conspiring against him. “The abuse of process by the civil service
was unreasonable”.
Following this he reports being placed on a 2-year injunction and a 5-year curfew. He feels
this has led to a breakdown in a 13-year relationship he had. He also reports this affecting
his company -a community interest company he started up. At one-point Mr Cordell also
mentioned the police targeting him for holding large parties that he was adamant were not
hosted by him.
Mr Cordell reports owning a couple of local festivals and talks about engaging with multiple
charities helping children. He says he had to stop this as police were harassing him in front
of the children. He alleges to own his own company, his own paper and has just bought his
own book maker for 70000 pounds. He also reports having 180000 friends on Facebook due
to all his free parties.
When asked about his neighbours Mr Cordell said he believes his neighbours have been
making up complaints about him. “My neighbours are calling up the police after forging the
paperwork.” He feels that his neighbours have been attacking him and reports feeling
anxious in his house. Simon says he “kept writing to the police saying please can you protect
me”.
He does not think he is unwell and does not think he has a mental health problem. He
admits he might be elevated but he believes this is a constructive state.
Mr Cordell reports not being compliant with any of his medication at any point. He is
refusing to take any medication during this admission. “I’ve spent thousands of pounds
showing you my brain, me being alert saves lives.”
Mr Cordell would like to appeal his section and feels that by keeping him in hospital we are
breaching his rights. “Physical or mental suffering amount to torture”
He reports sleeping, eating and drinking well. Later he suggested this may not be the case
stating “In the night time when my neighbours are asleep that’s the best time for working”.
Impression was that he presented with paranoid and grandiose delusions with significant
mood component. In view of long-term symptoms this is most likely consistent with a
Schizoaffective disorder. He does not currently have capacity for treatment or admission.
He settled in over the weekend, personal hygiene remained poor, smell of cannabis on him
was noticed.
On the 29th October 2018 when he was seen by a nurse, he was irritable and quite hostile.
