Death in Custody Investigation Report published for a death occurring on 8 April 2023

25th April 2024

On 25 April 2024, an Office of the Inspector of Prisons Death in Custody Investigation Report was published by the Department of Justice

The report is related to a death that occurred on 8 April 2023. The Inspector of Prisons investigates all deaths that occur in prison custody and also deaths that occur within one month of release from prison. The report relates to a death that occurred while the individual was in custody while on Temporary Release from Cork Prison.

In the case of Mr H, he was on Full Temporary Release having been admitted to hospital and was terminally ill.

There were no recommendations arising from the OIP Death in Custody report, therefore there was no Action Plan published alongside the report.
