Charles McConnell

Charles McConnell was found dead in his bed at the Aylesbury National Service Hostel in Aylesbury on Sunday 19 April 1953.

He died from head injuries and the police initially said that they suspected murder. However, they also said that they had not ruled out the possibility that he had died from some other cause. He had a severe injury above his left ear and a fractured skull. However, his inquest later concluded that he died from misadventure after he had climbed through the window into his room and fallen and hit his head resulting in his death.
