R v ZZ 2022 – Triumph Over Mental Health Stigma
In a case that underscored the importance of understanding mental health issues within the criminal justice system, Berri’s Law represented ZZ, who faced charges of assaulting a police officer during a distressing mental health episode. Despite substantial medical evidence confirming ZZ’s serious mental health condition at the time of the incident, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) opted to proceed with the trial. The tenacity of Berri’s Law ultimately prevailed, leading to ZZ’s exoneration as he was found not guilty of all charges. This case serves as a reminder that justice must account for the complexities of mental health.
