Default Compensation culture

A psychiatrist who released a mental patient who then stabbed a retired banker to death is suing for compensation.
Consultant Gill Mezey wants more than £300,000 from her employer for damage to her career.
She claims she has lost out financially and been 'humiliated' by her bosses, who suspended her on full pay.




The world has gone mad..............

On the contrary, finally the people letting the nuts out on the streets are being held accountable for their STUPIDITY...

Ah... slightly different picture from the headline. She should be sacked and disbarred. That was reckless, ill-considered and lazy. She should be treated they way I thought she was being treated.

As for compensation, I'd say it's due from her to the family of the victim.
