The inquest into prisoner Michael Davidson is set to continue today (Fri) after the jury was sent home yesterday as some of them were ill.
Yesterday afternoon, Dr David Hedley gave evidence to camera for the jury to watch at a later date.
Although he had no direct interaction with Mr Davidson, Dr Hedley was the lead forensic medical examiner for the Isle of Man when the prisoner died in March 2012.
The court heard Mr Davidson had been prescribed 60mg of Diazepam in one day whilst in the police cell.
Dr Hedley said he wouldn’t personally prescribe this large amount.
Later today the inquest is due to hear further toxicology and pathology evidence.
