A full inquest will be held in September because Robin Ligus died while in state detention.
Ligus had been detained in a secure establishment after being found responsible for the murders of three men in the 1990s.
Mr Dreelan said that a full inquest would be held on September 11 because Ligus had died while in state detention.Ligus was jailed for life in 1996 for the murder of Robert Young, 75, during a burglary at Mr Young's home in Shrewsbury two years previously. Jurors at Birmingham Crown Court were asked to rule on whether or not Ligus was responsible for the killings following a trial of facts, after he was declared unfit to plead following a stroke in 2006.
Prosecutors in the trial of facts claimed Ligus was a heroin and cocaine user and had committed the crimes to get money for his drug addiction.
