Nursing Ethics Paper, help!!!!!!!!!

I have a case study that I need to write about and I don't know where to begin finding the right sources...becuase there is just too much and not enough of what I'm looking for.

A schizophrenic client is off his medications and having auditory and visual hallucinations. The voices are telling him to kill the homeless man who wanders around the neighborhood. In his psychosis he kills the man. he is arrested and charged for murder. His lawyer wants the hospital to force-feed the client his medications so he can be competent for trial; but the client refuses despite his condition. What should ?be the ethical stance of an RN nurse?:mad:

I know there are lots of court cases like this.........I just want to know if anyone has any valuable information on the subject...any at all much appreciated!! thanks!!!
