Holmes, was in a defense motion submitted to the judge in which it accused the prosecution of leaking privileged information.<\/p>\n<p>Defense lawyers for the gunman accused in the Colorado movie theater massacre of July 20 revealed in a court filing made public July 27 that their client was a psychiatric patient of a professor at the University of Colorado and that he had sent her a message mailed prior to the shooting. The lawyers said former graduate student James Holmes was being treated by Dr. Lynne Fenton, a board certified psychiatrist at the university&#8217;s Anshutz Medical Campus in Aurora, Colorado.<\/p>\n<p>Well, this is interesting.<\/p>\n<p>While the media has not yet revealed that Holmes had been taking psychiatric drugs \u00e2\u20ac\u201d we&#8217;re waiting for that bombshell. <a href=\"mailto:cchrstl@cchrstl.org\">Let us know<\/a> as soon as you see this in the media.<\/p>\n<p>Psychiatric &#8220;treatment&#8221; ultimately means psychotropic, mind-altering drugs which are known to cause violent and suicidal behavior.<\/p>\n<p>Psychiatrists justify and prescribe life-damaging treatments, including mind-altering drugs, which mask a person&#8217;s underlying difficulties and prevent his or her recovery.<\/p>\n<p>However, there are no blood tests, X-rays, brain scans or any scientific\/medical means by which psychiatry&#8217;s diagnoses can be verified. Subsequently millions of men women and children have been wrongly diagnosed as mentally ill, and prescribed dangerous and potentially lethal psychiatric drugs.<\/p>\n<p>People in desperate circumstances must be provided proper and effective medical care. Medical, not psychiatric, attention, good nutrition, a healthy, safe environment and activity that promotes confidence will do far more than the brutality of psychiatry&#8217;s drug treatments.<\/p>\n<p>CCHR recommends that governments implement mandatory toxicology reports that specify a testing for psychiatric drugs in anyone who has committed a homicide or serious violent crime. Also, ensure that where psychiatric mind-altering drugs are implicated in such a crime, the psychiatrist prescribing the drugs be held accountable and that this information is made public.<\/p>\n<p>Help the press and law enforcement to ask the right question: <em>What, if any, prescribed psychotropic drugs Holmes may have been on (or in withdrawal from)<\/em>.
