The family of Jack Booth is hoping that an upcoming inquest will end their three year wait for answers about his death.
Jack, a 23-year-old aspiring electrician, died in November 2021. He was found late in the evening of 4 November 2021, shortly after having spoken with police officers. His death was confirmed by a paramedic.
An inquest into Jack’s death will take place before HM Area Coroner Roland Wooderson at Gloucester Coroner’s Court between 4 – 7 February 2025.
The inquest will consider the events of 4 – 5 November 2021 including the police response.
Jack’s mother, Donna Allwood, said: “Jack was a beautiful person; he was deeply caring and kind, as well as sociable and fun. Losing Jack has been unbearable. We had a very close relationship and I miss him constantly.”
Jack’s family will not be commenting further until the conclusion of the inquest.
