Medics who discharged Odessa Carey from a psychiatric ward did not think she posed a high risk to others, despite knowing she had held a knife against the back her mother's neck, an inquest has heard.
But the consultant who had been in charge of her care admitted that her discharge, less than a year before she killed and decapitated her mum who had the same name, had not been handled correctly.
And a coroner has expressed "grave concerns" about record keeping at Newcastle's Lowry Ward, on the second day of an inquest into Odessa senior's death.
