Overview
- Debbie Duncan appeared on Good Morning Britain on November 25 to call for a legal duty on platforms to remove misinformation targeting bereaved families.
- She said she receives abuse every day, including fabricated photos and videos of her son, and expects more harassment following her TV interview.
- Conspiracy theories began during the search in Tenerife, and she said early helpful publicity later gave way to targeted accusations against her.
- The inquest at Preston Coroner’s Court found Jay Slater died on June 17, 2024, after a 20–25 metre fall in the Juan Lopez ravine in Tenerife, with no third-party involvement.
- Jay’s body was recovered after a 29-day search by Spanish police, volunteers, family and rescue teams, and Duncan says ‘Jay’s Law’ is meant to stop continued abuse when facts are established.
