After she was hit by a tram, the probe into Cheryl Flanagan’s death was ‘a shambles’, said the coroner after hearing that all British Transport Police CID based at Birmingham had been given the day off.
A detective was eventually dispatched from Bristol, almost 100 miles away from the scene, only to be turned back by a senior officer, the inquest heard.
Meanwhile, the 30-year-old victim’s parents were standing by her body, waiting for a detective.
There is also a question why the police didn't arrest her fiancé.
Cheryl Flanagan died in December 2003 but the inquest is happening only now.
