🔗 Share this article Youth Discovered Dead Following Untrue Allegations of Stealing Cremated Remains Relative's Picture The teenager's mother and father discovered his body in his room in late 2021 A 14-year-old youth was discovered deceased just days following being falsely accused of stealing the ashes of a dead baby during a break-in, a coroner's inquiry has heard. Tragic Discovery Kai Lloyd's mother and father discovered his remains in his room at his Flintshire residence on 19 November 2021. Untrue Accusations Start The investigation learned how his parent got a communication on November 8th, 2021 via online platforms, from a individual inquiring if Kai was her offspring. The communication added: "Inform him appreciation for breaking into my apartment." In a testimony read to the court, Lisa Lloyd said the woman had been in the media, claiming her infant's remains had been taken in a break-in - a allegation which was untrue. Police Investigation An investigation report from authorities later determined the alleged break-in complainant had "provided false information" and "evidence shows that said items was never stolen in the beginning". Media reports about the alleged taken remains generated social media responses, and although the teenager was not named in the messages, his mother said individuals "knew it was him". The "social media content were really upsetting", she said. Mental Wellbeing Effect She explained that her son had been identified with moderate attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and as part of that condition, other peoples' views really were important to him. "It would have hurt him deeply," she commented, "particularly when this was not true". The teenager was detained at his residence, but nothing was found. He was taken to a law enforcement facility and later freed under investigation. Authorities said they would be in touch, the inquest heard, but had not reached out to the family by the moment of his passing. Isolation and Anxiety His parent said her son "became isolated" after the arrest and "would keep asking me whether I had received anything from the authorities", because his ADHD meant sometimes "a minute could seem like days". When she talked to him about the supposed burglary, she said her son told her he had entered the residence because the resident who lived there had said he could use the bathroom anytime he wanted, but denied taking anything. Online Harassment In a combined testimony between her and her spouse, Mrs Lloyd said her son was being bullied online after the allegations. The proceedings heard that one young adult urged the teenager to kill himself. She had no concerns on the night before he passed away, explaining how she had heard him "chuckling and joking". She portrayed him as a "compassionate, loving" boy, and said her "family is completely shattered". He had been "clearly concealing his concerns", she stated, noting that he could not bear to have anyone "have negative thoughts of him". School Reaction The inquest heard from school personnel at the local secondary school. On November 8th, she "heard some boys talking that the student had been arrested and that was the first I heard". "He informed me... he'd was innocent," she continued. After the conversation, the staff member said she called the family's family telephone and provided a message saying she had communicated to the student about the allegations. The proceedings learned his parents said they did not got that message. Official Conclusion Senior investigator told the hearing he would wait for documents regarding what enhancements had been made to dealing with individuals with the condition, before determining whether he should make a prevention of future fatalities report. Providing a narrative conclusion, he said: "Around 8 November 2021, unsupported accusations were made against the teenager, a 14-year-old child. "Likely untruths were subsequently embellished and exaggerated through the medium of social media. "During November 11th, he was interviewed by the police and after his interview he was freed while investigations continued." The coroner concluded: "Exists no proof that the acts or omissions of any organization caused or added to his passing and although it was the outcome of a personal act it is not possible to determine his purpose."
