Mark Holdsworth

In the circumstances it is my statutory to report to you: Mark Anthony Holdsworth was arrested by the Police on January 2015 on suspicion of rape of his 14 year old step daughter He committed suicide in the early hours on 24th January 2015 shortly after being released from custody on police bail. Shortly prior to his arrest; other officers took the comnlainant anduher mother to Spring Lodge for an ABEINWI interview. On route, Mother] Itold the officers that Mr Holdsworth had said he would 'kill himself if released' This information was , am told, later added to the incident log but was not drawn to the attention of either the arresting officers or the custody staff or Custody Sergeant 10th The duty 23rd

There is not criticism of the risk assessment procedure undertaken by the custody staff when Mr Holdsworth was booked in at Lincoln station but it's clear that they lacked the significant information that Mr Holdsworth had very recently threatened to kill himself am not sure what time the incident log was updated (I have not seen it) but | appreciate that it is impractible to suggest that custody staff examine incident logs regularly because of the pressure of time and work:
