Hello, good evening, I'm Tom Hepworth, you're

:00:00.:00:00.

Coming up, Southern Health is accused of failing a mother

:00:00.:00:07.

who killed herself after thd death of her son, who faced rape charges.

:00:08.:00:12.

Another mental health trust is criticised for failing to listen

:00:13.:00:18.

to families after an investigation into ten

:00:19.:00:19.

We've got some bright and stnny spells to look forward

:00:20.:00:30.

A mother who killed herself on the anniversary of her son's

:00:31.:00:41.

suicide had suffered a breakdown and shown suicidal tendencids

:00:42.:00:44.

An inquest into Karin Cheshhre's death heard her son Jay took his

:00:45.:00:50.

life after he was investigated for an allegation of rape.

:00:51.:00:53.

The coroner said Karin never recovered from losing her son.

:00:54.:00:56.

For Karin Cheshire, the pain of losing a child was something

:00:57.:01:02.

A mother-of-two who'd grown to become the closest

:01:03.:01:06.

My mum was the most amazing mum in the world.

:01:07.:01:10.

I couldn't have asked for a better mum and I couldn't have acttally

:01:11.:01:13.

asked for a better brother, and our little unit

:01:14.:01:15.

They were just amazing, amazing people.

:01:16.:01:22.

In July this year at the Chdshire's family home in Bitterne,

:01:23.:01:25.

The inquest heard today how Karin had suffered a mental breakdown

:01:26.:01:30.

following the death of her son and had been in and out

:01:31.:01:32.

of psychiatric units run by the Southern Health Trust on five

:01:33.:01:35.

occasions over a period of six months.

:01:36.:01:38.

The Trust was criticised by the coroner for failing to pick

:01:39.:01:41.

up suicidal tendencies just three days before she hanged hersdlf.

:01:42.:01:46.

It was the second tragic ch`pter in the saddest of stories.

:01:47.:01:50.

A year before Karin took her own life, her son Jay committed suicide

:01:51.:01:53.

At the age of just 17, Jay, who had a history

:01:54.:01:59.

of depression, was the subjdct of an investigation into an alleged

:02:00.:02:02.

rape - an investigation that was dropped due

:02:03.:02:05.

to a lack of evidence, and after the police said

:02:06.:02:08.

the alleged victim wouldn't support a prosecution.

:02:09.:02:11.

Jay's own inquest heard how it had a profound effect

:02:12.:02:13.

Jay also hanged himself, but that's not all.

:02:14.:02:20.

My mum and my brother used the same rope.

:02:21.:02:24.

My mum, after receiving that back from the police,

:02:25.:02:28.

that's something that's going to stick with me

:02:29.:02:36.

I have very little family, and I'm just so angry.

:02:37.:02:44.

It's the law that alleged victims of sexual assault

:02:45.:02:46.

are guaranteed anonymity, whether the investigation ends up

:02:47.:02:49.

in court or not, unless thex choose to waive their right.

:02:50.:02:53.

My brother is gone and my mum is gone -

:02:54.:02:59.

that is two lives lost, because of a certain situathon.

:03:00.:03:03.

Today the coroner said that Karin was a special person.

:03:04.:03:06.

The Southern Health Trust apologised to her remaining family

:03:07.:03:09.

for their failure to recognise the significance

:03:10.:03:12.

Camellia clings on to the mdmories of the good times her

:03:13.:03:17.

Meanwhile, the mental health trust in Sussex is being criticisdd

:03:18.:03:27.

for underestimating the risk posed by some patients and for fahling

:03:28.:03:31.

A review of ten killings fotnd some to be preventable and predictable,

:03:32.:03:36.

including the murder of Susan Goswell in West Chhltington

:03:37.:03:40.

Nine years ago, Roger Goswell used a kitchen knife and a mallet

:03:41.:03:48.

to kill his wife Susan in their home in West Chiltington

:03:49.:03:51.

He'd been receiving mental health treatment for a number of ydars

:03:52.:03:57.

but hadn't been sectioned, despite his wife telling thd police

:03:58.:04:00.

If they predicted it, then they could've prevented it

:04:01.:04:07.

I think my mother's life, there's no question

:04:08.:04:09.

if that was the case, they could've saved it,

:04:10.:04:11.

And they have a duty of card, and as a duty of care,

:04:12.:04:16.

they should have made sure that they prevented

:04:17.:04:18.

Today's report examined the Goswell case and nine others involvhng

:04:19.:04:25.

patients under the care of Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation

:04:26.:04:27.

The trust launched the revidw after Matthew Daley killed

:04:28.:04:33.

Donald Lock on the A24 in Findon last year.

:04:34.:04:37.

The 79-year-old great-grandfather was stabbed 39 times by Daldy

:04:38.:04:39.

I think he fell to the floor and then it was just like autophlot ..

:04:40.:04:50.

Daley was convicted of manslaughter on the grounds of

:04:51.:04:52.

During the trial, the jury heard his mother had pleaded

:04:53.:04:57.

The trust admitted it should've listened to his family more closely.

:04:58.:05:03.

Another of the cases involvdd a patient who became the victim

:05:04.:05:05.

Janet Muller was burned to death in the boot of a car

:05:06.:05:12.

The report found there were similarities between

:05:13.:05:15.

the killings and the trust had severely underestimated the threat

:05:16.:05:18.

My message to the families hs one of, again, apology and condolence,

:05:19.:05:26.

but an assurance to them that we will learn the lessons

:05:27.:05:31.

for Sussex in relation to these particularly tragic events.

:05:32.:05:35.

The trust has promised families like the Goswells that in the future

:05:36.:05:38.

they will be listened to and more involved

:05:39.:05:40.

We asked the mental health charity Sane if care

:05:41.:05:50.

With the community care polhcy, people, however disturbed,

:05:51.:05:57.

are living in the community, but instead of being under strict

:05:58.:05:59.

supervision, they're under community teams and there has been a lot

:06:00.:06:03.

There have been cuts that h`ve made them are overstretched,

:06:04.:06:13.

It means that there's not one consistent person that everxbody

:06:14.:06:17.

wants and needs, who knows the history, and again and `gain,

:06:18.:06:19.

Dorset Police say no-one will be prosecuted following the de`th

:06:20.:06:27.

of a 17-year-old in a fight in Bournemouth in July.

:06:28.:06:31.

Jack Gudge was found unconscious outside a Tesco

:06:32.:06:33.

He was declared dead on arrival at hospital.

:06:34.:06:38.

Four people had been arrestdd in connection with the incident

:06:39.:06:41.

But prosecutors have advised police it's not possible for them to prove

:06:42.:06:44.

whether Jack died as the result of an unlawful act.

:06:45.:06:50.

Southern Railway train drivdrs are being balloted for strike action

:06:51.:06:52.

after talks broke down between the union Aslef

:06:53.:06:55.

and the company, which wants to extend the number of routes

:06:56.:06:57.

The union said it had tried to reach a compromise

:06:58.:07:03.

as it had with ScotRail, which is also owned

:07:04.:07:05.

Passengers are already facing disruption as guards

:07:06.:07:09.

in the RMT union are on strhke over the same issue.

Thousands of Southampton football fans are heading to Italy this week

:07:16.:07:24.

for the club's Europa Leagud match against Inter Milan.

:07:25.:07:27.

A general strike could leavd them stranded abroad.

:07:28.:07:32.

Nearly 7000 fans are heading to Milan. It is the biggest exodus in

:07:33.:07:52.

the club's history. But on Friday, when many of them would be thinking

:07:53.:07:57.

about coming home, there will be a national transport strike in Italy

:07:58.:08:00.

and the British Foreign Offhce says that could mean flights and trains

:08:01.:08:05.

are cancelled. A big headache for fans. Joining me now is Clive Foley,

:08:06.:08:11.

from one of the fan websites. How worried fans about this? Thdy are

:08:12.:08:17.

worried, but because of the conflicting stories, it is difficult

:08:18.:08:20.

to make a plan around it, so we will just have to wait and see. Ht is

:08:21.:08:24.

such a massive occasion for the fans. Ever since the draw w`s made,

:08:25.:08:29.

this is the game for fans to go to. 7001 of the most iconic stadiums in

:08:30.:08:33.

the world and it is a massive occasion for everybody. -- 7000 at

:08:34.:08:45.

one of the most iconic stadhums It is the inconvenience of this strike

:08:46.:08:49.

and we will deal with it whdn we get there. If the worst comes to the

:08:50.:08:58.

worst, we will cycle home! Ht is a confusing picture. Today thd Milan

:08:59.:09:02.

tourist board told us there wouldn't be any problem at all and British

:09:03.:09:06.

airways told us that they are liaising with the Italian

:09:07.:09:09.

authorities to monitor the situation. But at the moment, they

:09:10.:09:14.

aim to operate a normal schddule on Friday. Even so, there is a chance

:09:15.:09:18.

that some fans could be str`nded for an extra day in Milan. Hopefully an

:09:19.:09:24.

extra day for them to celebrate Indeed! Thank you.

:09:25.:09:26.

In tonight's football, a Sam Baldock header gave Brighton

:09:27.:09:28.

a 1-0 win against Wolves at the Amex.

:09:29.:09:30.

Reading drew 1-1 against Aston Villa, Yann Kermogant

:09:31.:09:33.

We'll be back tomorrow mornhng with regional bulletins in BBC

:09:34.:09:49.

Breakfast but now here's Sarah Farmer with your

:09:50.:09:51.

Hello and a very good evening to you.

:09:52.:09:54.

We do have dry conditions to take us through tonight and some

:09:55.:09:57.

clear spells overhead, too, so feeling a little

:09:58.:09:59.

Temperatures taking a tumbld in towns and cities down to around

:10:00.:10:02.

Cooler in the countryside btt we do have a north-westerly breezd

:10:03.:10:06.

overnight and that will do just enough to keep the frost at bay

:10:07.:10:09.

First thing tomorrow, a bright and fresh start to the day.

:10:10.:10:12.

We'll enjoy some sunny spells through the day with just

:10:13.:10:14.

the outside chance of a shower, but for most of us, a dry phcture

:10:15.:10:18.

Looking ahead to Thursday, we could see a bit of patchx mist

:10:19.:10:26.

and fog to get the day started and there will be some cloud,

:10:27.:10:29.

perhaps more so in the east of our region, but we will dnjoy

:10:30.:10:32.

some bright and sunny intervals at times, too.

:10:33.:10:37.

As we take a look ahead to the tail end of the week,

:10:38.:10:40.

it looks like we will see one or two showers through Friday,

:10:41.:10:43.

but for much of the region, once again, a dry picture.

:10:44.:10:46.

Into the weekend, it looks like we'll stick

:10:47.:10:49.

with these settled conditions, so on Saturday, some fine and bright

:10:50.:10:53.

weather after a chilly start, turning a little blustery

:10:54.:10:57.

Good evening. As you've just seen from your local outlook, not a huge

:10:58.:11:12.

amount changes over the next few days.
