Chelmsford Prison has been held partly responsible | :00:08. | :00:12. | |
for the death of a young inmate, who killed himself while being cared | :00:13. | :00:15. | |
The family of Dean Saunders say he was suicidal | :00:16. | :00:20. | |
But today an inquest found he'd been the victim of neglect in prison, | :00:21. | :00:27. | |
and there were serious failings by the private company | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
Dean Saunders' family leaving the coroner's court at the end | :00:31. | :00:38. | |
Dean's partner, the mother of his son, said Dean | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
should have been in hospital, not caged | :00:42. | :00:43. | |
I know what it feels like, I don't want another Dean or another | :00:44. | :00:49. | |
family to have to go through this again. | :00:50. | :00:51. | |
But do you fear they will, if nothing is changed? | :00:52. | :00:53. | |
If nothing changes, it will happen again. | :00:54. | :00:59. | |
There were gasps of relief from Dean Saunders' family | :01:00. | :01:01. | |
when the foreman of the jury read out that Dean's death | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
There were multiple failings at Chelmsford Prison, said the jury, | :01:05. | :01:13. | |
including complacency about Dean's state of mind and circumstances. | :01:14. | :01:15. | |
In an interview with Look East, a former inmate told us | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
what the medical wing of the prison was like. | :01:19. | :01:20. | |
I wouldn't even say there WAS a proper medical | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
So I've just come through myself - there would be a little | :01:24. | :01:30. | |
like that, obviously with glass or | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
bars on to protect the nurse, and from there the queue sometimes went | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
people queueing back up the stairs... | :01:37. | :01:41. | |
And they're all looking for medical help? | :01:42. | :01:47. | |
And by this time people are still waiting in the queue, their | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
dinner's going cold, everyone's getting | :01:52. | :01:52. | |
angry, no-one wants to wait in the queues... | :01:53. | :01:54. | |
And then people trying to jump in... It just causes riots. | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
said the jury were let down by serious failings in both mental | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
I'm just so grateful that someone's finally listened to us - | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
Words can't describe how much we miss him, | :02:06. | :02:11. | |
The blessing is we've got a little bit of him in his son. | :02:12. | :02:21. | |
The family's now urging the coroner to prepare a report | :02:22. | :02:23. | |
highlighting the failings, to try to prevent another needless death. | :02:24. | :02:29. | |
The company which runs the medical wing, Care UK, | :02:30. | :02:31. | |
has issued a statement, offering its condolences | :02:32. | :02:32. | |
It says it's decided to end its contract with Chelmsford Prison, | :02:33. | :02:38. | |
due to insufficient resources available to provide | :02:39. | :02:40. | |
It also adds that it's developed a plan to help | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
It's emerged today that a hospital in Norfolk went | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
to court to evict a patient, who refused to leave | :02:51. | :02:52. | |
The patient had been on the ward at the James Paget | :02:53. | :02:58. | |
Another patient claimed the man treated the ward like a hotel. | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
The James Paget Hospital says its decision to go to court | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
to evict a patient wasn't taken lightly, but the bed was needed. | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
The Portuguese man finally left ten days ago. | :03:11. | :03:15. | |
Another patient on his ward, who didn't want to be identified, | :03:16. | :03:17. | |
is disgusted he was allowed to treat the hospital like a hotel. | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
that it stopped somebody else from being treated. | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
He was getting all the X-rays, he was getting all the treatment, | :03:27. | :03:32. | |
Solicitor Ben Ward says legally the hospital | :03:33. | :03:39. | |
is in a difficult position, as without the patient's consent, | :03:40. | :03:41. | |
It's a very, very difficult predicament for the hospital to be | :03:42. | :03:47. | |
in, and ultimately they've had to take the decision to go | :03:48. | :03:50. | |
And that seems to be the only legal way in which the hospital | :03:51. | :03:57. | |
The MP for Great Yarmouth, Brandon Lewis, praises | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
the way the hospital dealt with the situation, | :04:02. | :04:03. | |
We all have a duty to think about what is right and appropriate, | :04:04. | :04:10. | |
and that was clearly a case where there were opportunities | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
for that person to be where they should have been | :04:14. | :04:15. | |
That's just not fair on the local community. | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
The patient is now understood to be living in Suffolk. | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
He hasn't been available for comment. | :04:22. | :04:22. | |
Tonight, the hospital said it needs to ensure that its limited resources | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
are given to those people who really need them. | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
Meanwhile, experts are predicting that the man's two-year stay | :04:30. | :04:31. | |
cost the NHS ?200,000, and it's unlikely that that money | :04:32. | :04:33. | |
As you may have seen, Donald Trump has been sworn | :04:34. | :04:45. | |
in as the 45th President of the United States. | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
The event was followed across the world. | :04:51. | :04:52. | |
And it was the big talking point at the Bungalow Diner near Colchester - | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
It's a slice of America - but in the county of Essex. | :04:56. | :05:09. | |
And it's got everything you'd want from an American diner. | :05:10. | :05:12. | |
And my breakfast favourite, pancakes with maple syrup. | :05:13. | :05:14. | |
But breakfast aside, today is all about the man who's | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
going to be in charge of the United States of America | :05:18. | :05:19. | |
American businessman Donald Trump is the 45th US president. | :05:20. | :05:26. | |
Today, at the Capitol Building in Washington, he took the Oath | :05:27. | :05:28. | |
of Office, where he promised to protect America and its people | :05:29. | :05:37. | |
and to be a good leader, which his fans embrace. | :05:38. | :05:46. | |
But that's something that some of the ex-pats | :05:47. | :05:48. | |
I don't think he's going to protect our daily lives, | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
things like the cost of healthcare, the cost of food. | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
They're stocking the government with people who don't | :05:57. | :05:58. | |
I think the idea of protecting the American people is THE one thing | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
And he'll do it through the enhancement of national security | :06:03. | :06:07. | |
and through putting a lot of money into the defence sector. | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
President Trump says he wants to make America great again, | :06:12. | :06:13. | |
create more jobs, and be tough on terrorism and immigration. | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
So as the billionaire takes office, his supporters will no doubt mark | :06:19. | :06:23. | |
But those in the anti-Trump camp, those who campaigned against him, | :06:24. | :06:31. | |
will be likely to be anxiously watching his every move | :06:32. | :06:33. | |
Those are your top stories tonight - just time to leave you with | :06:34. | :06:43. | |
Well, it's another dry but cold night - | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
Temperatures in some spots, like last night, might actually fall | :06:48. | :06:53. | |
lower than these values, possibly down to minus 5 to minus 6. | :06:54. | :06:56. | |
Light winds, so we're also looking at some mist and fog, | :06:57. | :06:58. | |
So tomorrow that mist and fog might take a while to clear; once it's | :06:59. | :07:06. | |
gone it's looking a dry day, but we are expecting thicker cloud | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
to spread into some parts, and that could produce a little bit | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
of light rain and drizzle in North Norfolk. | :07:13. | :07:14. | |
The best of any brightness and sunshine expected in the south. | :07:15. | :07:17. | |
Temperatures tomorrow at best around 6 Celsius, 43 Fahrenheit. | :07:18. | :07:19. | |
And it looks like the dry conditions will continue through the afternoon | :07:20. | :07:22. | |
Now, in a moment Helen has the national forecast, | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
but I'll leave you with the outlook, and on Sunday perhaps the better | :07:26. | :07:28. | |
chance of some spells of sunshine once mist and fog has cleared, | :07:29. | :07:31. | |
and it looks like the dry conditions will continue | :07:32. | :07:33. | |
feel cooler. Can we keep it going until the start of the new week? I | :07:34. | :07:39. | |
suspect we can. Unconfirmed about -- concerned about the fog around. Here | :07:40. | :07:40. | |
is Helen with the national picture. Good evening. The weather is upon | :07:41. | :07:51. | |
us. The cloud has made all the difference this week in particular. | :07:52. | :07:54. | |
We have had some wonderful weather watcher pictures, this is Marlowe in | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
Buckinghamshire, this was Conwy earlier in the day. Some areas still | :07:59. | :08:04. | |
have the cloud. What a difference that makes. Edinburgh, the central | :08:05. | :08:08. | |
lowlands, plagued by this band of narrow cloud, overnight more areas | :08:09. | :08:17. | |
share in the frost. Pretty widespread, the frost overnight, | :08:18. | :08:20. | |
cold across northern England, Southern Scotland and Northern | :08:21. | :08:22. | |
Ireland | :08:23. | :08:23. |
