A 15-year-old girl was found dead in her bedroom surrounded by aerosol cans after confiding in a friend that she had tried sniffing the gas. Kacey Bartlett died as a result of inhalation of butane, an inquest has ruled.
The pupil was doing well at school and had just finished her mock exams. After her death, police spoke to a friend who said Kacey had bought aerosols to inhale for 'a high' and to make her feel better. He said he told her off and thought she had stopped doing it because she said she wouldn't do it again, reports DevonLive.
The friend said: "I don't believe she would commit suicide. She had great plans and was positive about the future."
