    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Lack of internal investigation or Serious Incident Review following a prisoner death

    Wider context from the report

    “1. that following a death of a prisoner who had been released on licence following a life sentence, there was no internal investigation by the Probation Service or any inquiry resembling a Serious Incident Review. They seem to have led to an air of complacency as to the Probation Service’s role in managing Mr Coughtrey ”
