S18E09 | Steven Hoskin (St Austell, Cornwall, 2006)

In the summer of 2006, emergency services were called to the foot of a railway viaduct in St Austell, Cornwall, where the body of a 39-year-old man was discovered.

His name was Steven Hoskin, and while his death initially raised more questions than answers, what investigators would soon uncover painted a harrowing picture. Not only of the cruelty he endured in his final hours, but also of the systemic failings that allowed it to happen.

Steven was vulnerable, well-meaning, and eager for friendship, but in a world not built to protect people like him, those qualities made him a target. This is a story of prolonged manipulation, unchecked cruelty, and a deeply troubling case that disability charity Scope would go on to describe as "an extreme example of disablism".
