A disgraced nurse who was struck off for refusing to admit a 22-year-old woman to a mental health unit before she killed has been pictured.
Paddy McKee was shown walking down the street in a 2015 image, just a year after Sally Mays took her own life in Hull.
Meanwhile it emerged today McKee said 'leave her, she will faint before she dies' before he kicked her out of the facility.
He allegedly made the comment as the patient - who had mental health issues - tried to strangle herself when she was refused admission.
Ms Mays killed herself at home in Hull in July 2014 after being refused a place at Miranda House in Hull by McKee and another nurse.
Despite her being a suicide risk, they would not give her a place at the hospital after a 14-minute assessment.
Her parents Angela and Andy have fought for several years for improvements to be made and lessons to be learnt from her death.

McKee was this month struck off following a Fitness to Practice hearing conducted by the Nursing and Midwifery Council.
He was employed in the crisis service of the Humber NHS Foundation Trust at the time he dealt with Ms Mays.
After a 12-day hearing, all 30 charges against McKee were proved along with six aggravating factors while all mitigation was dismissed.
The report by the NMC was this week published and condemned McKee, saying 'he treated her in a way that lacked basic kindness and compassion'.
The NMC found his actions to refuse Ms Mays' admission had contributed to her death.
McKee did not attend the hearing and refused to engage with the process. It is not clear at this stage whether he will appeal.
But the report was hugely critical of him and made it clear his actions contributed to her death.
The report says: 'The panel determined that despite concerns raised by medical professionals about Patient A's increased risk of fatal self-harm or suicide on July 25, 2014, Mr McKee deviated from Patient A's care plan and refused admission for a short-term in patient stay.
'The panel considered that, while there were other factors that could have contributed to her death, if Patient A had been admitted into hospital, she would not have had access to potentially harmful substances or material. Furthermore, she would have had received care and appropriate support from professionals.
'Having examined all of the evidence presented to it, and having particular regard to the expert evidence, the panel was of the view that on the balance of probabilities, it was more likely than not that if Patient A was admitted on July 25, 2014 she would not have died on that day.
'The panel found that Mr McKee's decision to refuse the admission of Patient A contributed to her death and therefore found this charge proved.'
The panel explained how McKee ignored the opinions of other professions when deciding to turn Ms Mays away.
The report says: 'The panel found that Mr McKee demonstrated a flagrant disregard for required standards during the gateway assessment and the clinical opinions of the medical professionals directly involved in Patient A's care.
'It also found that Mr McKee ignored the wishes of Patient A, who was clearly distressed.
'The panel determined that Mr McKee's actions when Patient A self-harmed in his presence were wholly inappropriate as he did not act in her best interests or act immediately to prevent injury and to provide care.
'Furthermore, the panel found that despite opportunities arising where a further risk assessment would be required during Patient A's time at Miranda House, Mr McKee did not carry out any further assessments and continued to refuse admission.
'The panel was of the view
