My account including legal corespondance of my Daughters Death at the hand of a 15 year old irresponsible motorcyclist. Was the Coroners verdict the right one. In my opinion and the opinion of independant resources since that day, that the Verdict was flawed. No charges were ever brought against the boy for her Death.
