Prisoner suffers from mild PTSD but poses less risk to general public in ‘supportive community environment’ than in prison
Charles Bronson has mild PTSD and is not ready for release yet, despite posing less of a risk to the public than in prison, an independent psychologist has told his parole hearing.
Bronson, who later changed his name to Charles Salvador, having been born Michael Peterson, used to find violence cathartic, but he is now able to weigh up the pros and cons and gain the same experience through his art, forensic psychologist Kerry Daynes, who was commissioned by his lawyer, said.
