Drew Kenney’s Death and the Charges Dropped | Leicester News
Description
Two officers won’t face manslaughter charges in the death of Drew Kenney, a 24-year-old with autism and ADHD who died during a police welfare check last March — but his family insists the outcome was preventable and demands answers. His sister called him vibrant and devoted to his kids, saying proper handling could have saved him. Concerns also linger over whether hospital staff were informed about his drug use. Though criminal charges are dropped, both officers remain under IOPC investigation for gross misconduct, with a final report expected soon — and the family says they’re still waiting for full transparency.
