And it was such an explosive claim that the family, in a pre-inquest hearing in June 2021, demanded that the coroner and the PS9 take this seriously and investigate it.

Six months later, The P.S. and I came to the then coroner, Joe McCrisken, to say that they'd investigated the claim and found that there was no merit to it.

But, you know, one wonders just how seriously they did interrogate it, because there's a sense throughout this entire investigation the P.S. and I have been incurious, reluctant to explore the alternative theories other than Noah voluntarily went into the storm drain, voluntarily stripped himself naked.

and was effectively the architect of all his own actions and consequences.

And let me explain PII's, Public Interest Immunity Certificates, or certificates withdrawing or redacting documents from the public view.

PII's are normally associated with terror cases, highly, you know, international terrorism, MI5, MI6 cases.
