THE mother of a housebound, disabled woman who killed herself after her benefits were cut lost a High Court bid today for a fresh inquest into her daughter’s death.
Jodey Whiting, 42, from Stockton-on-Tees, died in February 2017, around two weeks after her disability benefit was stopped for missing a work capability assessment.
Her mother, Joy Dove, asked the High Court in London in June to grant a new inquest into the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP)’s role in Ms Whiting’s death.
