AI-generated summary
Clem McCullough died between 8-10 June 2019 from mixed drug toxicity. The inquest, held in May 2026, resulted in an open finding as the available evidence did not permit the coroner to determine the place or manner of death. The case was referred to NSW Police's Unsolved Homicide Unit, indicating suspicious circumstances. Without additional investigative findings, the coroner could not establish whether the death was accidental, intentional, or resulted from criminal act. The finding highlights the complexity of drug-related deaths where circumstances remain unclear and demonstrates the need for continued investigation by law enforcement authorities.
