An inquest into Kristie’s death was held at Ampthill Coroner’s Court on October 6.

Coroner Dr Sean Cummings, said: “Kristie was found collapsed and had been in that position for a prolonged period.

“As a result of that, the doctor told me she had a condition called rhabdomyolysis, where the muscles die and break down.

“It floods the body with toxins… the collapse started with drug use.”

My conclusion is that Kristie died of a drug-related death.

Dr Cummings concluded: “My conclusion is that Kristie died of a drug-related death.

“That concludes the inquest and I’m very sorry.”
