THE WELLARD GAZETTE
PSYCHIATRIST MURDERED BY MENTALLY INSANE PATIENT
Sources state that Marlowe, who has a long history of violent delusions, used a letter opener to slash the doctor’s throat before turning the blade on herself. Security intervened before she could succumb to her injuries, and she remains under strict observation in solitary confinement.
Dr. Wren, renowned for his compassionate approach to psychiatric rehabilitation, had been overseeing Marlowe’s treatment for the past several months.
Colleagues describe him as dedicated and kind, always striving to help his patients reclaim their sanity.
“He believed in her recovery,” said Dr. Julian Ross, a fellow psychiatrist at Wellard.
“He never gave up on her, even when the rest of us saw what she truly was.”
An internal investigation is underway, but no evidence has been found to substantiate Marlowe’s claim that she acted in self-defense.
She reportedly told staff that Dr. Wren had attacked her first, a statement contradicted by forensic evidence.
Furthermore, Marlowe repeatedly mentioned a man named “Theo” as an accomplice, yet no records of any such individual exist. However, we believe that this is a confusion of her late fiancé, Theo.
Eliza Marlowe remains at Wellard Asylum under heavy sedation, facing further psychological evaluation. Authorities assure the public that she will never see the outside world again.
