Phantom 2,531 Posted October 27, 2006 Caught some of the Channel 4 Longford programme, another excellent Peter Morgan drama. It said Brady was still on hunger strike. I didn't know that. He could be a good each-way bet for next year. He's been on hunger strike for at least 5 years now. I believe a year & a half ago he was given "weeks to live" by the hospital staff as allegedly his internal organs were starting to fail. But here we all are and he's still with us... I say, remove the feeding tube and stop wasting taxpayers' money Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest the tribe of brady Posted October 30, 2006 Why can't they put a webcam and speaker in his cell so we can tell him what we think of him and watch him writhe as they force-feed him? Or maybe a simple thing like "send a meal", where you send stuff to him from a local takeaway but he's not allowed to eat it, just get tempted by the smell, could be organised. Or better yet, take him back to broadmoor pop him in a cell on an empty wing and LEAVE HIM TO DIE. THen the world can get on with the year 1A.B. and enjoy ourselves without the memories!

Phantom 2,531 Posted November 26, 2006 Can someone please give me details about this fine chap's health over the last couple of years? Reports say he was hospitalized earlier this year but does anyone know for what? [Topcis merged -- MH] Rita, I think the hospitalization was something to do with his kidneys although I've not seen any reports to state that. The only thing I've seen mentioned in the news about him this year has been when he was writing to the mother of one of his victims. Then again 18 months ago he was given "weeks to live" by doctors tending him. I wish they would just remove that feeding tube and do us all a favour Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phantom 2,531 Posted November 30, 2006 This is the latest news story I could find on Brady from October 23rd New battle for Brady journalist A journalist is facing a fresh attempt by a health authority to force him to reveal his source for an article about the care of Moors murderer Ian Brady. Robin Ackroyd's 1999 Daily Mirror story made allegations about mistreatment of Brady at Ashworth Hospital, Merseyside. Mersey Care NHS trust wants a High Court ruling won by Mr Ackroyd in February to be overturned. The Court of Appeal case centres on the balance between press freedom and the confidentiality of medical records. At the original hearing, the High Court rejected argument by the trust that the public interest in a journalist's right to protect his sources was overridden by patient confidentiality. On Monday, Vincent Nelson QC told three appeal judges in London it was not disputed the hospital had a legitimate aim in seeking to establish the identity of the employee who had leaked information to Mr Accord relating to Brady's treatment. The point at issue was whether there was a "pressing social need" for disclosure of the journalist's source in this case. In the High Court, Mr Justice Tugendhat had said Mr Ackroyd was a "responsible journalist" who was "acting in the public interest". The new case is among a series of court battles between the trust and the media over the Brady case. Some of the information disclosed to Mr Ackroyd came from Brady's medical records on a confidential database known as the Patient Administrative and Clinical Information Service (PACIS). It formed the basis of a story published in the Daily Mirror in December 1999 about alleged mistreatment of Brady while he was being force-fed on hunger strike. The Mirror fought unsuccessfully all the way to the House of Lords to avoid having to disclose its source - Mr Ackroyd - who then became the target of the action brought by the trust in its attempts to identify who leaked the information. A High Court judge ruled in October 2002 that Mr Ackroyd must reveal his source. But in May 2003, the Court of Appeal held that Mr Ackroyd should be allowed to defend himself - which he did, successfully, earlier this year. Brady was jailed for life with Myra Hindley in 1966 for the murders of five children in Greater Manchester. The 67-year-old began his hunger strike in September 1999.
