Re; KALMAN, Robert November 13, 2003 i
. that Mr- Kalmarfs evasiveness should be a significant Focus ofhis Master Treatment Plan and
_ that he should be required to complete the Hare Psychopathy Checklist a.H:ea· his transfer to ·
Dutchar. y
· i Therefore, it is the opinion ofthe hospital that Robert Kalman is an aequitteo who has psychiatric
` disabilities to the extent that he should continue to be hospltalizedi It is further the hospital` s
opinion that Mr. Kalman cannot at this time be adequately controlled with available supervision `
on conditional release from the hospital or be discharged fiom the Psychiatric Security Review
Board as he would constitute n danger to himselfcf others. it is respectfully recommended that _
the Board consider Mr. Kalman to be an appropriate candidate for transfer to the enhanced
_ security setting ofthe Dutcher Service of the Whiting Forensic Division of Connecticut Valley — i
Hospital. ‘ _ I i
