Rest in peace
A schizophrenia sufferer who permanently blinded her own mother by gouging both of her eyes has been detained indefinitely in hospital by a judge.
Mrs Saxelby revealed her daughter had threatened to blind her by gouging her eyes after blaming her for the death of her husband a week earlier. Stephen Bailey, prosecuting, said Miss Saxelby maintained a good relationship with her supportive parents, and in 2018 Mrs Saxelby asked her daughter to be treated rather than prosecuted when she poured boiling water over her mother.
Shirley Saxelby remembered her daughter shouting: “I’m going to gouge your eyes out, you’ll be blind.”“Again too many times for her to keep count of,” Mr Bailey added. Mrs Saxelby explained that she no longer wanted to see her daughter as she was scared of what might happen.
