and there was "nothing wrong with me". He said that the reason we want to see him is to
               "cover for missing signatures?". He said he "will ruin anyone who come to my house" and he
               has "recording cameras and audios" to ruin us. He said if you come to my house "I f... ing
               will scar you for life". He used foul languages throughout this contact. He said that I "can
               take the f...ing referral and stick it up my a..e". He said that he does not want to see us. I
               could not interrupt him: very verbally aggressive with pressure in speech". I did manage to
               say that we are a different team from Lucas House and we want him to have a fresh start- He
               said "I don't f...ing care"
               Further to that the MDT advised that we should assess Mr Cordell in clinic due to the
               potential risks. We then offered him an appointment on the 28th September which Mr
               Cordell did not attend.

               My report is based on the information which I have extracted from RIO and my telephone
               conversation with Mr Cordell’s mother.
               Psychiatric history
               On the 16th August 2016 Mr Cordell was admitted to CFH under Section 2 of the MHA. He
               was discharged on the 27th August 2016. According to RIO notes Mr Cordell "was arrested
               at his home address after his mother raised concerns about his mental state - he was allegedly
               verbally threatening towards his neighbour and (?) neighbour's children. Simon's mother
               called police who arrested him. He was seen by the FME at Wood Green police station, was
               then referred for MHA.”
               He appealed against his Section. The Mental Health Review Tribunal discharged him from
               Section 2 on the 26th August 2016.
               Leading to current admission
               As I stated above leading to this admission Mr Cordell did not attend appointments offered to
               him by our service. Subsequently due to the allegations made against him I was advised to
               attend a Safeguarding meeting for an alleged victim. In that meeting I was informed by the
               Council that Mr Cordell has a past and current history of physical and verbal aggression
               towards residents in the building. I was informed that the council has tried to work with Mr
               Cordell but to no avail. I was informed that Mr Cordell was getting easily irritated even by
               the sound of a flushing toilet; this happened very recently, and he threatened the resident
               concerned. The Council was of the opinion that these are signs of mental illness and
               suggested that BEH should proceed with a MHA. The Council argued that this is for the
               protection of others as well as Mr Cordell’s own safety.
               Subsequently the council sent us a copy of ‘Anti-Social Behaviour, Tenancy concerns and
               breaches- pre-action letter’ which contained a chronology of alleged incidents dating from
               2016. These alleged incidents were in the meaning of an antisocial behaviour presentation.
               On the 17th October Mr Cordell was discussed in our MDT meeting. A decision was made
               to conduct a MHA. A MHA was attempted on the 19th October. Mr Cordell did not
               cooperate, and the assessment did not take place.
               On the 23rd October an application for a warrant was made but was declined on the grounds
               "that there was insufficient recent evidence that he was being "kept under proper control” as
               he is living alone and "insufficient recent medical evidence that "he is unable to care for
               himself.
               According to RIO, on the 25th October Mr Cordell was arrested for breaching a harassment
               order. It was alleged that he was aggressive towards the police and spat at them. He was
               assessed at the police station. On interview he had pressure of speech, delusions about his
