An early prison assessment of the man who police allege deliberately rammed federal MP Helen Haines has found no indication of extremism.

it turns out that if our great dear beloved politician leadership class are serious about safety and harm reduction and preventing violence and preserving civility, then

The initial evaluation of Brendan Nugent says he held delusions of being persecuted and was most likely in a state of psychosis.

they’re actually just calling for better support for mental health care

wow

Brendan Nugent’s mental health assessment.

This is heartbreaking for me to read.

disagree

this is good news

all those resources they promised to pour into preventing these tragedies

we would love to see them keep their promise and pour resources into preventing these tragedies

we love it when politicians set their hearts on doing the right things for their communities

Well…my sister was failed by a lack of resources in the Northern Rivers area in 2006. She had schizophrenia and was paranoid etc. So much of that assessment echoes what she went through. That’s what is heartbreaking, nothing changes.

fair, and hence we agree this is a great opportunity for those in power to make some changes
