Case Example 1

• Nathan is 30 years old and diagnosed with ASD

and Schizoaffective Disorder. When he was 28

years old he was charged with making terroristic

threats directed at his employer after his employer

told him his work ethic needed to improve. He was

fired as a result of threatening to blow up the

workplace. He continued to stalk his supervisor on

social media and made threats of physical harm.

He was arrested and spent 6 months in the county

jail. Upon his release, he was placed on probation

for 3 years. He is currently residing with his

brother. They often get into altercations and the

police have responded to the home for crisis

intervention purposes.

ISP Documentation: General Health & Safety Risks

“As per the PRE, Rusty has a history of law

enforcement involvement. In 2018, he was

charged with making terroristic threats at his

former place of employment after he was

confronted by his supervisor about his work

performance. On the job site he threatened to

blow up the building. Upon his termination, he

stalked his former supervisor online and

threatened physical harm. Rusty served six

months in the county jail. He was released on

probation and has a year left of probation,

provided he meets all the requirements.”

Risk Mitigation Strategies

10/21/20

ISP: Risk Mitigation Documentation

Using the case example, the mitigation may be as

follows:

“As a condition of his release, Rusty has a court order

in place to stay off social media. Behavioral Support

services are in place to teach coping strategies,

especially in situations where Rusty feels he is being

criticized. The BSP is restrictive due to the internet

and cell phone access to social media (See BSP/CIP).

Rusty meets with his probation office every other

week.”

Case Example 2

• Chelsea is 27 years old and lives in her own

apartment. Chelsea has a tendency to “hang out”

with the teenagers who reside in the same building

and their friends. The police have responded

several times over the past year for noise

complaints. Chelsea is typically warned about

playing her music too loud and she turns off her

music without complaint. Last month, a neighbor

called the police for a noise complaint, but when the

police arrived they found a party in Chelsea’s

apartment with many underage teenagers

consuming alcohol. Chelsea is charged with

providing alcohol to minors and has an upcoming

hearing date.

What law enforcement risks should be identified?

ISP: General Health & Safety Risks

“As per the PRE, Chelsea is currently involved

with the justice system. In September 2020, the

police responded to Chelsea’s apartment because

the neighbor called in a noise complaint. When

the police arrived, they discovered a party in

Chelsea’s apartment with several underage

teenagers consuming alcohol. Chelsea was

charged with serving alcohol to minors. She was

waiting for a court date in November 2020. It is

noted that Chelsea has a tendency to “hang out”

with underage teenagers. She states that she

feels comfortable with them and they are

accepting of her.”10/21/20

ISP: Risk Mitigation

Using the previous example, the mitigation may be as

follows:

“Chelsea is working with a behavior specialist and a

therapist to assist her in developing social skills that

will enable her to develop peer relationships with

those in her age group. The team is also working to

educate Chelsea on the risks of continuing to “hang

out” with teenagers much younger than she. Chelsea

is very interested in enhancing her cooking skills; thus

her team is assisting her in locating a cooking class at

the local community college. While enhancing her

cooking skills, it is hoped it will connect her with others

closer her age and decreases the amount of time she

is not meaningfully engaged.”10/21/20
