    3. Age 9 Childhood History. Mr A second in family of 6 children. No known significant early health problems. Had contact with the Children's Hearing System from age of 9 following concerns of lack of parental control and neglect. Both parents were dependant on alcohol. In addition he was involved in antisocial and offending behaviour (shoplifting to buy essentials for himself) as he had no family support from his parents and siblings. Age 10 He was removed from the family home for his own safety and welfare and placed in a childrens home. Mr A subsequently became involved in alcohol and solvent misuse whilst in care.

    4. Age 14-16 (Teenage years ) Admitted to Residential Schools in Scotland due to ongoing family issues and Mr As involvement in offending behaviour. Whilst approaching his late teens he began to abuse a variety of substances that included LSD, cannabis, amphetamines, and prescribed medication

    5. Age 16-21 From aged 16 the offending behaviour continued and he remained involved with criminal justice system, including lengthy periods in custody for drink/substance related offences. Estimated Mr A spent approx only 4 months in total of his adult life living in the community.

    6. Mr A continued to commit crimes including offences of a violent nature. He was detained in psychiatric care for assessment under the Criminal Procedure (Scotland) Act 1975. He was diagnosed then with borderline personality disorder with propensity to decompensate into frank psychosis following drug and alcohol abuse. He absconded twice during this period. On one occasion he assaulted a member of the public by holding them hostage with a knife held to their throat. He was discharged in his absence following the second absconsion.
