Mother ‘died after tower block leap’

A SUICIDAL mother-of-three leapt to her death from the sixth floor of a tower block within a day of being discharged from a psychiatric hospital, an inquest heard yesterday.

Rachel Hall was agitated and pleading for medication when she was sent home from St Vincent’s Hospital, Fairview, her family said.

Gardaí were also called to her mother’s Ballymun home three times just hours after her release because of serious concerns over her safety.
