  • The coroner said likely falsehoods were embellished and exaggerated through social media.
  • Kai Lloyd had been questioned and released while inquiries continued in 2021.
  • Family and school reported no behavioural red flags in the days before his death, though online posts and local bullying upset him.
  • The coroner found no evidence that the acts or omissions of any agency caused or contributed to his death.
