London

473 known cases 1993 – 2023
202 inquiry reports & official papers

In addition to the Inquiry reports here NHS London commissioned two reports into mental health homicides in London between January 2002 – December 2006.

The report by consultants Verita found 26 mental health homicide cases during that period and their report was published.

The report by Caring Solutions Ltd found 69 cases over the same period and investigated at a sample of 40 cases (which included a very high number of ‘stranger’ homicides). The report was not published. A copy was obtained under the Freedom of Information Act.

  1. Its amazing the effect words can have.
    having looked through the long list of people who due to mental illness
    committed murder
    makes me want to cry.
    we need help BIG Time.

  2. On April 12th 2021 my son who also has mental health came to my property to kill me
    Luckily I’m alive to tell my story but I’m in no doubt that he will be back to finish me off
    So while I still have breath I ask the government to please help the victims like myself to repair their lives and for housing to support us and rehouse us
