I have painstakingly studied the symptoms brought about at the onset of drug induced Akathisia and identified the known fact that a reduction in a patient's medication, such as haloperidol, is likely to bring aggressive behaviour into a person's character, which otherwise would not have been present!
What is important in this case, are the views of persons who witnessed her behaviour after the reduction in her medication had taken place, and not simply to rely upon her bahavioural characteristics beforehand!
Having said that, even prior to the reduction in her haloperidol treatment taking place, there existed periods of violence, aggression and fear which she imposed, or directed at other people, as evidenced by the accounts of some of Sheila Caffell's friends who made witness statements to the police expressing the fears they had when Sheila had 'one of her turns'...
Emani 'feared for his life's, on occasions, and he feared for the safety of other people, including small children Sheila had been minding at the time of one such relapse!
Exactly how anyone, can say that Sheila wasn't the kind of person to be violent, or aggressive, or be able to instill genuine fear in other people when she was that way inclined, therefore has to be dismissed readily! Sheila had her moments, in which had you been present in her company at such a time, you would have feared for your own safety, for the safety of others...
That was the situation prior to the reduction in her haloperidol treatment!
