Coroner gives decision on the cause of death of Dr Michael Mosley whose body was discovered four days after he went for a walk in scorching Greece heat
Dr Michael Mosley made a potentially key mistake on the day he died, an inquest has revealed. The diet and fitness expert had left his mobile phone at his holiday accommodation amid concerns it would get wet on a ferry.
However, Crispin Butler, Senior Coroner for Buckinghamshire, has now determined that it is impossible to ascertain the exact cause of Dr Mosley's death, ruling the medical cause as "unascertainable". The inquest was conducted "on papers" - without members of the public in attendance - at the family's request.
The family provided further details of their trip, noting that they stayed with friends. It continued: "On the morning of 5th of June they travelled to Pedi Beach, arriving late morning. Michael had intentionally left his mobile phone back at the house to prevent it getting wet on the ferry. It concluded: "Michael’s death was most likely attributable either to heatstroke or non-identified pathological cause. There was nothing of note in toxicology. Ultimately Michael's death was classified as indeterminate, which we would describe as 'unascertainable'."
