Headless body found in grounds of Callington Road Hospital is identified
A HEADLESS body found in the grounds of a psychiatric hospital in Brislington has been identified as that of 39-year-old Michael Eyers, of St Anne's, Flax Bourton Coroner's Court confirmed yesterday.
It has not been disclosed whether Mr Eyers had been receiving treatment from Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Trust, which runs Callington Road Hospital, although at the time his body was found, on January 11, the trust said that no current in-patients were missing. An inquest has been opened into Mr Eyers' death, which is not being treated as suspicious.

“Oh dear MrsN123, Perhaps you've never heard of satire, so I will expand. How on earth can such a tragic and shocking death NOT be treated by the police and other investigating authorities as suspicious? If there was a simple (non suspicious) explanation for the unfortunate and untimely death (e.g an accident) of this poor man, then it should surely have been reported as such. My issue here is with the reporting of the story, and the apparent lack of an adequate explanation by the police. I certainly did not intend to cause any offence, but if any offence has been inferred by friends or relatives of Mr Eyres then I sincerely apologise.”

“Hope you thought that that comment would be useful "scorpio2429"! Maybe you should learn to hold back on insensitive comments, people are being gravely affected by this, Shame on you, lets hope you never have to go through something so traumatic, and have to listen to and read spiteful comments from someone who is completely un-related to the tragedy!”

“Nothing suspicious about the discovery of a headless body in the grounds of a psychiatric hospital? Gosh, I wonder what Miss Marple would have made of it?”
