An inquest into the death of murder victim Brianna Ghey, 16, heard she had mental health struggles.
An inquest into the death of murder victim Brianna Ghey heard she struggled with her mental health and was "enveloped in darkness" before she died.
Coroner Jacqueline Devonish said one of the issues the inquest will deal with is whether it could have been reasonably foreseen that Brianna was placed at risk by being in the same inclusion room at the school as Jenkinson. Earlier in her teenage years, she developed an eating disorder that resulted in her being hospitalised, the inquest heard.
Her mother said Brianna’s mental health deteriorated in lockdown and she began to live her life mainly online.After lockdown, Brianna did not attend lessons in school because of anxiety.“She went down a hole of negativity," Ms Ghey said.
