Charlotte Hibbert died of 'cocaine toxicity' two days after celebrating Valentine's Day. The 26-year-old was found unresponsive at home and pronounced dead at the scene.
A tragic mum-of-two died of "cocaine toxicity" just two days after celebrating Valentine's Day with her boyfriend. Charlotte Hibbert's inquest heard she died at home on February 16, in 2022.
The court heard that Charlotte, who was said to be a user of cocaine at social occasions, was in a happy mood when she went out with her boyfriend on February 14. But when paramedics were called to the couple's home two days later, they found the woman unresponsive on the floor of the living room, Manchester Evening News reports.
A toxicology report revealed Charlotte had consumed cocaine "within a day or so" of her death and analysis also showed the drug had been taken when alcohol was present. Recording the cause of death as "cocaine toxicity", he concluded: "Cocaine toxicity represented the central factor in the death of Charlotte."
DI Dixon submitted a file of evidence but the Crown Prosecution Service decided there was "insufficient evidence" to charge Mr Duerden with gross negligence manslaughter, the inquest heard. It meant no further action was taken against him although the inquest heard an investigation was continuing into allegations of possession of class A drugs.
