An inquest has unveiled troubling revelations surrounding the death of Kane Boyce, a man who kicked his girlfriend to death in a Croydon street, only to die in his prison cell after consuming homemade alcohol, known as hooch.
Boyce, who admitted to murdering his girlfriend in 2015, was serving time at HMP Lowdham Grange when he was found unresponsive in his cell on October 3, 2021, during a routine nightly welfare check. The 41-year-old had celebrated his birthday with a drinking session, consuming the potent prison brew, before being discovered with a ligature around his neck.
