Police reopen investigation into boy's death at mental health unit after detectives find 'a number of issues'
An inquest into the death of a teenager being treated at a mental health unit in Prestwich has been delayed for police to carry out further investigations - after it emerged hospital records may have been edited after his death.
Senior Coroner Joanne Kearsley told the court that questions had been raised about whether some hospital documents ‘might have been altered’ since Charlie’s death. In addition to the people who were there on the day of Charlie’s death, the police will also look at the role of more senior management on the ward.
It’s the second time the teenager’s inquest has been delayed after Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust , who run the hospital, were ordered to commission an ‘external report’ about Charlie’s death, as well as the deaths of 18-year-old Rowan Thompson and Ania Sohail, 21.
