Arrested and let go Twice 3 men murdered

After his first arrest his mother, Jill Lewis-Ranwell, had phoned police expressing "grave concerns should he be released" but he was charged and bailed.
A 12-minute triage call with a mental health practitioner identified "potential psychotic symptoms present including paranoid beliefs" and a police inspector reviewing his detention wrote that he "potentially presents as a serious risk to the public if released"

UNREAL

First arrest: burglary :- well yeah that's basically legal these days
Second arrest: attacking a farmer with a saw :- ok you can go but try not to do it again

Amazing how many warnings they overlook before removing these people from society.

Alexander Lewis-Ranwell battered his victims - all in their 80s - with a shovel and a hammer in a "whirlwind of destruction".

He has paranoid schizophrenia and was having delusions about saving girls from a paedophile ring, jurors heard.

The 28-year-old was found not guilty by reason of insanity after jurors decided he "did not know it was illegal".

The Mother even said he was off his head ..

In a statement, the head of custody for G4S Health Services, Jon Allen, said the company "stood by their decision" that "Lewis-Ranwell was not suicidal and did not meet the requirements of a full Mental Health Act assessment in the out-of-hours period".

Head of major crime at Devon and Cornwall Police, Det Supt Mike West, said: "We fully
accept our responsibilities to look after those detained in our custody units.

"However, it is unreasonable to suggest that police officers or staff, in these circumstances,
should have over-ridden decisions made by those who are trained, qualified and skilled in health care."
