Nicholas Rossi's mental health 'should not stop extradition', says expert
A psychiatrist has told a court hearing that rape suspect Nicholas Rossi's mental state is unlikely to be a barrier to his extradition.
The doctor said the man's symptoms pointed to a personality disorder, but that confirming a diagnosis would require multiple assessments. Mr Rossi was arrested and detained, while he was being treated for Covid-19 at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow, in December 2021, in connection with an alleged rape in Utah.
Mr Rossi appeared at court more than four hours late due to transport issues from HMP Edinburgh where he is being held on remand.
