Camille said she 'no longer felt able to survive without Ethan'.
A heartbroken mum was found dead in the same woods where her son committed suicide after telling her family she 'couldn't survive without him'.
At a recent inquest, it was heard Camille was allowed out to attend Ethan's funeral, but had continued to voice her intention to end her life. Extracts from a statement by Camille's partner Richard was read out at an inquest at Preston Coroner's Court today. It described how her mental health had been "extremely fragile" after Ethan's death.
Area Coroner Kate Bisset described the force's actions as "appalling" and also criticised them for failing to inform Richard of Camille's death when asked to do so by Lancashire Constabulary. On the morning of December 8, after Camille had moved back to her home in Walton-le-Dale, Tony Gardner was walking his dog before heading to work when he came across her sat on the footpath in a wooded area.
Area Coroner Kate Bisset addressed his concerns and said his concern was a "reflection of his kindness" and added: "He is not responsible and did everything he could including reaching out to her." GP Dr Manoon Nair said Camille was last seen at a face-to-face appointment on December 5. Medical notes indicated she stated she had no suicidal thoughts and was "hoping to get better".
