A man who took his own life in his prison cell rang his mum to say his "head’s going" shortly before his death.
Ashley Dougan, 32, was found in his cell on the Valentine's Green Wing of HMP Altcourse at around 8.20am on September 2, 2021. He was taken to Aintree University Hospital, where he died at 8.40pm the following day, having suffered a severe brain injury and cardiac arrest.
The Prisons & Probation Ombudsman has now published the findings of its investigation into Mr Dougan's death.
