Reporters & photographers are welcome to attend
(2) The 6 deaths have been described by INQUEST, London, as "a clear example of corporate manslaughter", yet no-one at the jail has been held to account.
(3) BBC report ("Dying for change") includes the above quote: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/3955735.stm
(4) January 2005: the jury at Sarah's 11-day inquest returned a detailed narrative verdict, stating that a "failure in the duty of care", and "avoidable delays" in calling the ambulance, contributed to her death. (Jury did not return a "suicide" verdict.)
(5) September 2006: Home Office conceded liability, admitting that Sarah's human rights were breached under the European Convention on Human Rights, but it was a shameful admission. There was no apology. http://society.guardian.co.uk/crimeandpunishment/story/0,,1881338,00.html
(6) Prison address: HMP & YOI Styal, Styal Road, Styal, Nr Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9 4HR, England, UK.
