now required to address the patient's psychotic symptoms. The clinical view is
that the patient is unlikely to engage as an informal patient and a previous
attempt at treating the patient in the community was unsuccessful.
As to the patient's safety, there is historical information that Mr. Cordell has
attempted to self-harm in the past. This is not a current concern. Mr.
Cordell’s difficulties at his accommodation may pose a risk of eviction.
However, further clarification is required during the period of the assessment
on this point. There is a potential risk of retaliation from others when he is
behaving aggressively towards others.
As regards the protection of others, Mr. Cordell has entrenched and
longstanding views and there have been incidents of aggression involving his
neighbours, council officials, and the police prior to admission. He showed
little capacity for self- reflection or remorse during his evidence when he was
questioned about his telephone interaction with Mr. Appadoo. We note that
the allegations of physical and verbal altercations with his neighbours were
relied upon to obtain an order for an injunction as recently as the 9.1.2018
which was later discharged in July 2018 due to the patient's lack of capacity to
understand the conditions of the injunction due to his psychotic illness.
