Blind university student found hanging in her room with her guide dog by her side just days after breakup
A university student who was blind and used a guide dog was recently found hanging in her university dorm room with the dog pacing close to her.
An inquest heard that 24-year-old Jade Clements hanged herself only minutes after she sent an upsetting message to her friend at the Keele University in Staffordshire in March 2018. The inquest also heard how a security guard had to access her room after a risk assessment officer at the Holly Cross halls became worried. However, they arrived too late and found her dead.
Clements' faithful black Labrador named Toffee was next to her when she was found. The inquest was told that the student, who is from Godalming, Surrey, had been fighting multiple health issues and she also recently went through a break-up, the Daily Mail reported.
