It has been nearly two decades since this A- list singer died.

Sure, there were drugs in his system, but to protect the family, the police made no mention of that fact it was an auto ero-tic situation gone bad.

Michael Hutchence death explained: the Coroner’s account in his own words

… London psychiatrist Mark Collins was consulted by Hutchence on October 17, 1997, in regard to a minor depression being experienced by him. Dr Collins said there was no hint of suicidal thinking by Hutchence.

An analysis report of Hutchence’s blood indicates the presence of alcohol, cocaine, Prozac and prescription drugs.

It has been suggested the death resulted from an act of auto eroticism.

However, there is no forensic or other evidence to substantiate this suggestion.

I therefore discount that manner of death.

On consideration of the entirety of the evidence I am satisfied Hutchence was in a severe depressed state on the morning of November 22, 1997.

This was due to a number of factors, including the relationship with Paula Yates and the pressure of the ongoing dispute with Sir Robert Geldof, combined with the effects of the substances that he had ingested at that time.

I am satisfied the cause of death was “hanging”.

I am also satisfied there was no other person involved in causing the death.

Nothing will be gained by holding a formal inquest.

The identity of the deceased, the date and place of death and the manner and cause of death are clearly set out and the time and expense of holding an inquest is not warranted and will be dispensed with.

May I offer to the family of Michael Hutchence my sincere condolences on their sad loss.

D.W. HAND,
