Mother stabbed by crazed neighbour loses fight for life as attacker’s family tell how he pleaded to stay in hospital

Mr London had been referred by his GP to Watford General Hospital’s Acute Admissions Unit on April 29 after his mother became concerned when he repeatedly and inexplicably went missing over several weeks.
His family revealed that, in the hospital, he became fearful of an attempt to take a blood sample and struggled to stay when he was told he could leave the hospital.
Despite his pleas for medical assistance, Mr London was discharged – with an appointment to be assessed by a psychiatric team the following day.

You may be interested in this account by Brian Sewell of his stay in an NHS hospital at the weekend. It doesn't make pleasant reading....
