Overview
- Tiegan Jarman, 13, was found unresponsive at her home in Thurmaston on March 6 and was pronounced dead at the scene after resuscitation attempts.
- Her relatives say she died after taking part in a social-media trend known as chroming, which involves inhaling solvent vapours from household products.
- Stepfather Rob Hopkin said at least one can of deodorant was used and that the family does not know if she had tried chroming before.
- Sister Alisha launched a Change.org petition titled “Enforce warnings on solvent products and educate on risks,” seeking more prominent labels and compulsory lessons on dangerous online trends.
- The petition had 1,232 signatures at the time of the Daily Star’s report, and the articles do not cite official findings or responses from social platforms.
