GMP reopen investigation into boy's death as hospital records may have been edited AFTER tragedy

An inquest into the death of a teenager being treated at a mental health unit in Prestwich has been delayed for police to carry out further investigations - after it emerged hospital records may have been edited after his death.

Charlie Millers, 17, died five days after he was found unresponsive in his room at Prestwich Hospital on December 2, 2020. Within the same nine months, two other patients being treated at the hospital also died.

The youngster’s inquest was due to begin at Rochdale Coroner’s Court on Monday (January 30), but the hearing was adjourned after GMP requested further time to review the initial police investigation into his death.
