| dc.description.notes | There is emerging evidence to suggest Individuals with Intellectual disability and psychiatric disorder may be at risk for criminal offending. To explore this issue further, we reviewed 276 referrals to the New South Wales Mental Health Review Tribunal (MHRT), which evaluates offenders suspected of having psychiatric disorders. Seventeen cases (6.15%) were Identified with Intellectual disability and psychiatric disorder. Individuals were diagnosed with a variety of psychiatric disorders (e.g., schizophrenia personality disorder, psychotic depression) and 60% had mild to borderline intellectual disability. These Individuals had been charged with a range of serious crimes including sexual assault, murder, physical assault, armed robbery, and kidnaping. Most had a history of psychiatric disturbance, criminal activity, and alcohol and drug abuse. The study suggests an urgent need to develop early screening and intervention services focused on preventing criminal behavior in cases of intellectual disability and psychiatric disorder.<br/ >Cited By (since 1996):2Export Date: 23 July 2013Source: Scopus | en |
