BBC: Army mishandled sex assault before death - coroner
'
The death of a soldier left terrified after being sexually assaulted by her superior was, in part, caused by the British Army's handling of her complaint, a coroner says.
Royal Artillery Gunner Jaysley Beck, 19, was found hanged in her barracks at Larkhill Camp in Wiltshire on 15 December 2021 after a Christmas party.
Gunner Beck had filed a complaint against Battery Sergeant Major Michael Webber after he
"pinned her down"
and tried to kiss her at a work social.
On Thursday Assistant Coroner Nicholas Rheinberg ruled she died by suicide and determined the Army's handling of the complaint played "more than a minimal contributory part in her death"
