Consider adding section "In the Media" for Forensic Psychiatry -reference Law & Order: SVU. The forensic psychiatrist on the show is Dr. George Huang -attach a link to the page for "Dr. George Huang" "AAPL Practice Guideline for the Forensic Psychiatric Evaluation of Competence to Stand Trial", see the link http://www.jaapl.org/content/35/Supplement_4/S3.full The above document has detailed listings of court cases relating to issues of mental health. One in particular sounded interesting. There was a court case where the court doubted the defendent's compentency to represent himself (pro se defense, perhaps link page to "pro se legal representation" article). The main purpose of the article is to discuss the evaluation of the defendant's mental state. "The report should contain clinical data regardint the defendant's ment and emotional condition that are specifically relevant to the competency analysis."
