Current Major incident at Bondi Junction

[BFew]

Cauchi was reported to have been medically managed off his medication by his GP and a non-government Psychiatrist, approx. 5 years ago (in 2019).

That's way too long a time ago to claim that this triggered him relapsing into a psychosis in April 2024.

We'll have to wait for the results of the toxicology report that should be revealed (at the latest) at his Coronial Inquest, for confirmation of what drugs were in his system at the time of death, for a clearer indication of what might have triggered a psychosis in the immediate lead up to the Bondi Junction tragedy.

How many psychosis relapses (if any), and the severity and length of them, he might have had since 2019 before the April 2024 psychosis, is unclear.

For all we know, if he did have any, they might have been been very minor ones, and have been "mutism" ones, where he was possibly of no-harm to anyone, but possible himself having an accident.


We don't even know if pre-2019, how many (if any) psychosis he had relapsed into since his claimed aged 17 ones, decades ago, and what the likely causes of this might have been (including things like sleep deprivation or drug usage).

Wouldn't be surprised if there are still many unanswered questions after the Coronial Inquest, as is often the case where mental health is a factor, and there is at least a 23 year period of mental health illness, treatment (or lack of possibly to some degree), incorrect treatment or ineffective medications, medication side effects (possibly long term), or other undiagnosed illness.

This crime in England seems to be of a similar ilk to Bondi Jumction. Although seemingly more targeting children. Messed up.

The far-right used the attacks as a pretext to riot in Southport. You can see one of the rioters copping it from his own side here:
