Summary
Jay Slater’s inquest was paused as his mother, Debbie Duncan, urged for key witnesses who saw him in his last hours to testify; however, police stated they cannot compel individuals to attend. The 19-year-old was found dead in a ravine in Tenerife after a 29-day search, with drugs and alcohol in his system and a head injury determined as the cause of death. Despite efforts to summon friends and others he met during his trip, key witnesses, including his best friends Lucy Law and Brad Hargreaves, did not appear, leading to a request for further investigation before resuming the hearing.
