Jacob was stabbed in the neck while out for the night. His attacker had been recently released from prison, but with no co-ordinated plans to manage his serious mental health condition and the risk he posed to others.

Along with the lack of integrated working across services, the Coroner identified a specific problem with the healthcare system used in prisons, which had no access to other relevant healthcare records and which didn't display key information in an accessible format.
