I am writing on behalf of my husband who has been suffering with depression (high dose of anti-depressants prescribed) for over a year who this week was arrested following an accident which he then blew 120 and has been bailed to appear on 15th August.
I was wondering whether it is worth submitting statements from a doctor and/or a private physiatrist which he has booked to see since the incident as he has been waiting over 10 weeks on the NHS not to defend his choice to drink and drive but to try and seek a lenient sentence?
He was on suicide watch during his overnight stay in the cell and was seen by the station doctor. Will this information be reported as to his state of mind? If so will that be helpful or harmful to his case?
