Infant Prisoners at Milbank Penitentiary Inquest Report
An inquest at Milbank Penitentiary examined the death of fourteen year old inmate Charles Hodge. The boy, received from Woolwich on December 17, 1835 after a July Exeter conviction for stealing books, died after debility and lung consumption worsened by prison discipline. Jury verdicts labelled Natural Death with calls to stop such punishments. other inquests covered drownings at Shadwell including a four month old, and a 19 year old aboard a coal-ship, all ruled accidental or natural deaths amid public-safety concerns. Balloon tragedy and multiple river drownings were detailed with grim outcomes and appeals for safety.
