watfordobserver.co.uk on October 17, 2011 reported that a psychiatric nurse has been struck off after an affair with a former patient, who was being treated at a clinic for offenders, was exposed in an explicit DVD sent to her employers. Carol Stovell had an affair with the young offender after he was discharged from the Eric Shepherd Unit in Abbots Langley. The Nursing and Midwifery Council heard how the troubled patient, described as “manipulative and not particularly vulnerable” threw himself in front of a car when she threatened to finish with him.
