A tragic inquest into the death of Bradley Buswell, a 42-year-old man with schizophrenia, reveals how a nationwide antipsychotic shortage led to a cascade of failures. After being forced off his effective injectable medication, he was switched to oral pills he didn’t take consistently — and later given a less effective injectable. Found with 52 times the lethal dose in his system, his family blames systemic neglect, not any one person. Remembered for his kindness, love of nature, and Fremantle Dockers, Buswell’s death was accidental — he feared dying deeply. The coroner’s findings are due by September, as WA health services express sorrow and acknowledge the complexity of mental health care.
