Strange Thing To Find These Days...

A coroner who doesn't want to point out failings, that is:
Norfolk area coroner Yvonne Blake today recorded a conclusion that Mrs Croghan was unlawfully killed but declined a request by the family to highlight failings by the authorities, saying there was no evidence the teenager had posed a threat to his grandmother or father.
Ms Ronen, a nurse who lives in Norwich, said afterwards: 'We believe there were multiple opportunities across the adult safeguarding team, mental health services and the police to identify risk, all of which were either ignored, dismissed or dealt with in isolation.
'Mum's case is an example of a systemic failure to reflect and learn from mistakes made. We are deeply disappointed that the coroner has not highlighted this within the conclusion.'
She's not usually shy about castigating the authorities when it comes to child deaths, but seems pretty laid back when the victims of failings are elderly.
