Case No.: 91-005433
Mr . Sims has been attending the IX:nestic Intervention Program
since June, 1991. He continues to justify his violent actions and
blam=s his wife for his abusive behavior. Mr. Sims has a great deal of
hostility towards his wife arrl the justice system. He has been unable
to work through this anger so as to make progress in therapy. He has
maintainerl a very negative and sarcastic attitupe throughout his treat-
ment.
Therefore, it is our piOfessional . opinion that Mr. Sims has
reached maximum potential in therapy at this time. However, he still
remains at high risk for . beccming physically violent again in the
future. The protection and well-being of his wife and new baby should
be the utrrost priority of the Court at this tine.
If you need any additional info.D11ation, please advise.
