Inquest into murdered Hertfordshire student fails to establish cause of death

Samples taken from Joy Morgan’s liver and muscles revealed presence of MDMA in her system

Mystery still surrounds the murder of a midwifery student by a fellow member of her church after an inquest failed to identify the medical cause of death.

The body of 20-year-old Joy Morgan was discovered in woodland in Stevenage, Hertfordshire, on 5 October 2019 – two months after Shohfah-El Israel was jailed for life for her murder.
