Friends tried to save a man who has been described as "larger than life" after he was found unconscious at a party. Kier Jenkins had been at a house party in Merthyr Tydfil on Sunday, September 19, 2021 before he was found collapsed in the early hours of Monday morning.
An inquest into his death at Pontypridd Coroner's Court on Thursday, November 3, heard how Kier had been out drinking on the Saturday and Sunday before his death. Reading witness statements provided to the court, Coroner Mr David Regan described how the 24-year-old from Troedrhiw, Merthyr Tydfil, had been drinking for a period of 36 hours before his death.
Paying tribute to their brother following the hearing Kier's sisters Mali and Shantay Jenkins and their cousin Angharad Jenkins, described how Kier was "their world" and told how he was "larger than life". Paying tribute to their beloved brother, they said: "He loved all our children and he would do anything for anyone. He had done so much for charity, he raised money for Mind, he was the type of person who would give you all he had left."
