Maria Voisin

Maria Voisin is a coroner currently presiding over significant inquests. She is notable for her involvement in the inquest into the deaths of three British aid workers killed in Gaza by an airstrike. This inquest may involve testimony from Israeli and UK military commanders and could examine the origin of the weaponry used. Additionally, Maria Voisin recently concluded an inquest into the death of Clare Dupree, a woman with severe mental illness who died in a prison cell fire at HMP Eastwood Park. The inquest found that there were 'missed opportunities' to prevent her death from smoke inhalation. Voisin's role highlights the judicial process of investigating deaths to determine circumstances and potentially identify failures in safety or protocol, with her current cases drawing attention to international conflict and prison safety.
