Firstly, I apologise for making this my introductory post, but I am frantic with worry for my husband.
He is 38 and has just recently been diagnosed with Aspergers. Yesterday he got sent to prison for a huge mistake he made when using his computer.
Already he is not coping well- he told me during his phone call that he has already had a meltdown and self-harmed (head to wall). He received death threats on the bus from the court, due to the nature of his conviction. I don't know how they found out, but he is most definitely not what he has been labelled as.
He has been told that an appeal might be possible, and obviously I want to get him out of there and safe as soon as I can.
Does anyone have any advice about organisations I can contact that might be able to help with the appeal, by providing evidence about how dangerous it is to his mental health to keep him in that environment?
I'm worried that without me to help him, as his voice of reason, that he might lash out at someone if one of the other prisoners provokes him too much, and make things worse for himself.
I need to get him out of there.
Please help
