Victim's mother says a review shows a catalogue of 'astonishing failings and incompetence'.
By Clare Lissaman & PA MediaA mentally-ill man who went on a fatal stabbing spree had been released from prison unsupervised, a review found.
"There appear to be no consequences at all for the agencies involved, and I am not satisfied in any way the failings identified in this report will not continue to happen," she said. His lifelong friend Michael Callaghan who was gravely injured would suffer "the horrendous consequences of his injuries for the rest of his life", she added.in November 2021 after admitting manslaughter, four counts of attempted murder and three counts of wounding.
McLeod had a long history of offending, starting in his teens, which the report said included robberies, threats and carrying a knife. He did not engage with mental health services in prison or the community and was reluctant to take prescribed medication. In particular, the review identified "four missed opportunities" for services to gain a better understanding of his "mental health needs and his risk, and allow for a planned release from prison at the end of his sentence".
"Furthermore, his observed mental health symptoms were not considered to be of a degree or nature to reach the threshold for assessment or detention under the Mental Health Act," the report added.
