My sons solicicitor sent the questions he's asking the Psycholgist to address on my sons 2 hour psychological assessmentthat ( which we're paying for) do we have anything to add.

I asked him can we ask if the sheer quantity & the cocktail of medications my son was on from age 11 to 20 say, what affect may they have on a developing brain? He was put on anti depressants at agr 11 by CAMHS & by 15 was also on among other things an anti-psychotic, a mood stabiliser, Amyltriptaline & anti depressant meds which were constantly raised as his behaviour worsened. I'm pretty sure this would never happen now. The solicitor said a psychologist cannot determine this it would require a toxogologist.



Also my son told me, & I believe him, of all he has downloaded he probably viewed 20. I saw on another post a forensic expert can determine if downloaded files have actually been viewed.

But I don't have a clue where I can find someone who would look into both those things for me. The forensics can only be done when we hear back from NCA but we could look into the toxogology now I'm sure. Does anyone know how I go about finding these experts which I'd pay for of course?

The solicitor usually has a connection to forensic experts, that they will recommend. Not sure about other experts, but again, check with the solicitor.
