Police identified how a 12-year-old girl died after being bullied but said none of the incidents crossed the criminal threshold, an inquest has heard.
Charley Ann Patterson was found unresponsive by her dad Paul at her home in Cramlington, Northumberland, on October 1, 2020. An inquest into her death heard how she was given resuscitation but could not be saved and passed away in hospital.
An inquest into her death heard how she had previously tried to get help from medical professionals after self harming on two occasions. The hearing at Northumberland Coroner's Court heard how she told a nurse that she had been bullied online and she couldn't speak to her friends to reconcile due to being at home during the covid-19 lockdown.
