Dear Mr. Horan:

Enclosed is a technical article published in a recent issue of the journal Psychiatric Services that presents research findings concerning violent behavior in persons with paranoid schizophrenia.
("Psychopathy and Violent Behavior Among Patients With Schizophrenia or Schizoaffective Disorder." Psychiatric Services 50(6): 787-792 (June 1999).)

Perhaps as a courtesy, the authors of the paper might consent to review aspects of my case with the U.S. Capitol Police or other federal law enforcement agencies. The authors' affiliations are indicated on the first page of the article.

The enclosed computer disc contains documents of psychological interest concerning me.

Incidentally, the journal Psychiatric Services is published by The American Psychiatric Association, which is located here in Washington, an organization formerly headed by Jerry M. Wiener, M.D., a psychiatry professor at The George Washington University Medical Center, where I used to be a patient.

Sincerely,

Gary Freedman
