Postponement of the investigation into the death of Maddy Cusack

The inquest into the death of former Sheffield United footballer Maddy Cusack has been postponed until December to allow further evidence to be gathered about her medical history.

<h2>Postponement of the investigation into the death of Maddy Cusack</h2> The inquest into the death of former Sheffield United footballer Maddy Cusack has been postponed until December. Cusack, 27, was found unconscious by her father David at their home in Horsley, Derbyshire, on September 20, 2023, and pronounced dead the same day. The inquest, which began at Chesterfield Coroners' Court on June 29, was due to conclude on July 27. Assistant coroner Sophie Cartwright KC apologized to Cusack's family for the delay before adjourning the hearing to December 7, to allow Sheffield United to seek documents relating to his medical history.

During the hearing, it emerged that Cusack's family had sent a letter of complaint to Sheffield United in the weeks following his death, highlighting issues relating to his working relationship with the club's manager, Jonathan Morgan. Cusack's mother Deborah described Morgan as her daughter's "enemy", adding that he had made comments about her weight and her relationship to "get her down to size" and to "be in control". Grace Riglar, who played for the team and was in a relationship with Cusack, told the court that Cusack was "anxious" about Morgan's arrival at the club, having already had a negative experience working with him at Leicester City.

Morgan, giving evidence, said he had no concerns about his relationship with Cusack when he became Sheffield United manager, saying he was "very happy" to have her on his team and had offered her a full-time contract. However, the investigation revealed that Morgan had told the Football Association (FA) that Cusack was "generally a liar", saying she had "left out a lot of information" when speaking to her family about her behaviour. It was also understood that Morgan had previously ruled out the player when he was manager at Leicester City.

The coroner said the inquest had to be adjourned to allow further information to be requested about Cusack's medical records. Sheffield United will be asked to search their Microsoft Teams and Google Drive archives for any information relating to Cusack, and will be asked for an audit of his health records in the club's system in the months leading up to his death. Previously, club doctor Dr. Subhasis Basu said Cusack's medical documents had been lost. Addressing Cusack's family, the assistant coroner expressed regret at the long wait for this inquest, promising to do everything possible to ensure that all necessary material is examined. The resumption of the investigation, when it occurs, is expected to last five days.
