Today's Video Focus: Michelle Schlitter holds the memory of her husband dear. A year ago,
Bruce Cooper took his own life. Mr Cooper was a police officer for 20
years, first in NSW and then Queensland. He loved the job but also
witnessed terrible things that haunted him — car accidents, suicides and
murders. He was medically retired in 2008, diagnosed with
post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and depression.
The struggle with PTSD is all too common.
Focus of the Day Article:
All lawyers have one thing in common - wearing academic gowns - but
passing off controversy is being whipped-up like gowns in a Scottish
wind as firm seeks to move case to English court.
