Charges against a woman who allegedly assaulted hospital staff multiple times and made bomb threats to a now former minister's office have been dropped on mental health grounds.
Sixteen charges against the woman, who The Canberra Times has chosen not to name, were dismissed on Friday. Another charge has been withdrawn.
The charges included causing public mischief, assaulting a front line community service provider, assault occasioning actual bodily harm, common assault and property damage.
