1) Nurse told girl ‘don’t show texts anyone or I could go to prison’<\/strong><\/p>\n A Liverpool<\/a> mental health nurse has been warned after sending \u201ccompletely inappropriate\u201d text messages to a \u201cvulnerable\u201d 16-year-old girl in her care. Claire Kitson, a case worker for Sefton<\/a> Child and Adolescent Mental Health<\/a> Services employed at Alder Hey Children\u2019s NHS Foundation Trust<\/a> through an agency, told the girl never to show the messages to anyone \u201cor I could go to prison<\/a>\u201d. A panel of the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) found that Mrs Kitson \u201cfailed to maintain professional boundaries\u201d with the teenager while employed as her case worker<\/a>. This included sending messages outside of work hours that went beyond the clinical<\/a> relationship.

Ian Ross, 70, worked for the Liverpool Daily Post and Echo, The Times, The Guardian and the Daily Telegraph as a sports writer. Ian<\/a>, affectionately known to most as Rossie, later spent 10 years as a director of communications at Everton<\/a> FC. He was also an author<\/a>, writing three sports related non-fiction books before publishing a novel about time travel in 2021. However, he had no memory of writing it. Ian<\/a> found the thriller on his laptop after returning home from hospital<\/a>, where he had been in a coma<\/a> for three weeks on the brink of death following complications after major heart surgery.

The 54-year-old, of Burghill Road in West Derby<\/a>, drove his two-tonne Ford Galaxy into crowds of fans celebrating Liverpool\u2019s 20th Premier League<\/a> title earlier this year. More than 100 people, ranging from babies to pensioners, were injured after being struck by the car on Water Street shortly after 6pm on Monday, May 26, as what was meant to be a day of joy turned into scenes of devastation and terror<\/a>. Fifty casualties required hospital treatment in the aftermath of the appalling incident, with all of them later discharged. Doyle admitted a total of 31 charges last month.
