SocietyMother was assessed as no immediate risk weeks before Elizabeth Struhs’s death, inquest hears

A Brisbane inquest heard that three weeks before eight-year-old Elizabeth Struhs died, a correctional services officer assessed her mother, Kerrie, as posing no immediate risk to others. The officer lacked access to details of Kerrie’s child-neglect conviction. Elizabeth died in January 2022 from diabetic ketoacidosis.
