Documenting Psychiatrists Behaving Badly
Of all professions, psychiatrists seem to get into the most trouble. I have been collecting stories about psychiatric screwups for a while. Sadly, it has been disgustingly easy to do. We post stories with links to the original sources. We couldn't make this stuff up if we wanted to. My Name is Sickmind Fraud.

Psychiatrist Stabs a Top Italian Psychologist
Italian police have arrested a former psychiatrist for stabbing to death a psychologist who had reportedly recommended he be committed to a hospital for treatment of mental illness. Italian state television broke into its newscast on August 7th to report the arrest of Arturo Geoffroy, 47, who had just taken a dip in the sea at a beach in Camogli, near Genoa. Lorenzo Bignamini, 42, a psychologist at a Milan hospital, was chased and stabbed in the heart on Saturday on a Milan street as bystanders watched in horror. Lorenzo Bignamini had been President of the Societa Italiana Di Psicologia Clinica Medica [Italian Society of Medical Clinical Psychology].
