A woman died after she was attacked by her husband who suffered from Alzheimer's disease, an inquest has heard.
Christine Williamson, 62, had repeatedly told authorities that she was being assaulted by her mentally ill husband James.
A coroner ruled today that her death could have been prevented if the officials had shared information about the threats that she faced.
Doctors said that Mr Williamson 'would not have known what he was doing' when he struck his wife a fatal blow, due to his advanced dementia.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
