Such a horrendous incident
A coroner has called for action to prevent future tragedies following the death of Blackpool grandmother Marlene McCabe.
At an inquest into Mrs McCabe's death, held at Blackpool Town Hall in May 2023, assistant coroner Tim Holloway reached a conclusion of unlawful killing. The inquest heard how a string of medical professionals failed to recognise that Conor was suffering from a severe form of paranoid schizophrenia.Family members described how Conor, who had been placed in the care of his grandmother as a young child, but had become increasingly paranoid.
An A&E nurse who triaged Conor was alarmed to see him crouching on a chair and hissing at people and he was assessed by mental health team leader Carole Middlebrook. Extracts of medical records suggested that Ms Middlebrook's assessment of Conor lasted less than nine minutes and she decided he was a "nice young man" with "no underlying psychosis".
A Home Office Domestic Homicide Review carried out following Mrs McCabe's death found that two incidents in December 2017 and a further incident in 2019 were not recognised as domestic abuse and therefore policies and procedures were not followed. "There were accepted prior failures in the collation and consideration of information, including from the available records and family, and in the mental health assessment of and progression of treatment for the assailant, in particular from early July 2019, which did not more than minimally contribute to Marlene McCabe's death."
