Have posted recently about this but brief details are
lodger/carer in his eighties caring for woman ( platonic relationship ) in her ninties .
woman has relatives fairly nearby who offer little/no support but visit to borrow money .Little love lost between lodger and relatives .
during last 6 months old lady becoming confused
carer/lodger goes out and finds her missing on return
tracks down to relatives
relatives refuse to let her speak to him and physically pull her back when she reaches for him
he calls police
he and lady both confirm that fingerprint bruises on her arm caused by carer - he pulled her back from dangerous situation in kitchen
he is arrested ,put in a cell for 20 hours and now has restraining order which has rendered him homeless
old lady lasted a few weeks before she died ,something he was notified of a few days after the event by duty solicitor
So my question is - is this normal for a restraining order to be given so quickly and with what appears to be so little weighing of the circumstances ?
elderly man has no record or convictions ,no previous accusations of him assualting his friend .
