Assistant coroner Simon Brenchley recorded a narrative conclusion, noting a combination of drug toxicity and alcohol as his cause of death at a hearing on Monday (August 21). But it was not known whether his death happened accidentally or through a deliberate overdose.
Mr Mitchell had a history of poor mental health, suicide attempts and was suffering from financial difficulties amid struggles finding and maintaining employment, the coroner said. He began taking drugs in October 2022, when he was released after serving six weeks in prison for breaching his ten-year football ban, the inquest was told.
He was 'advised to abstain from alcohol' and diagnosed with an adjustment disorder, the court heard. Mr Mitchell had been unemployed since November, and 'admitted drinking 15 cans of cider a day' - although he had cut it down to six. He denied having active suicidal thoughts," added the coroner.
