A 23-year-old man died in an Irish prison in 2023 after a 2018 burglary conviction, due to failed monitoring and systemic safety lapses.
A 23-year-old man, Edward Woodland, died in Limerick Prison in January 2023, three days after being sentenced for a 2018 burglary.
An investigation by the Office of the Inspector of Prisons found serious monitoring failures, including 15-minute checks on Woodland delayed by up to 70 minutes, with falsified records altered by pen.
CCTV contradicted written logs, and physical checks like kicking cell doors were deemed unreliable.
The OIP recommended replacing security observation with medical care for prisoners suspected of hiding drugs and urged adoption of remote vital sign monitoring, citing similar concerns after a 2020 death.
Woodland, who had cannabis and tablets found during a search, declined a hospital referral despite a doctor’s offer.
The report highlighted systemic failures in prison oversight and safety.
