Man waiting to face trial died after collapsing in prison cell

A man waiting for his Crown Court trial died in hospital weeks after suffering a suspected seizure in his cell.

Michael Dean Copley had been remanded to HMP Altcourse on February 15, 2023. Just days later, on February 18, he was found in his cell having had a suspected seizure.

Mr Copley, who had a medical history of alcoholic liver disease, was sent to Aintree hospital before being discharged, but was back at the hospital shortly after following more "confusion". He died on March 14 at Aintree University Hospital.
