A coroner’s inquest into the death of a disabled teen who was in the care of an Ontario school for blind children is set to begin today.
The inquest for Samuel Brown begins at 10 a-m and is expected to hear from 13 witnesses over 10 days.
Brown, who was born with a genetic condition that left him blind, deaf and non-verbal, died five years ago at the age of 18 while attending the W. Ross Macdonald School for the Blind in Brantford.
His family has said medical experts disagreed about what led to his death and alleged he was in good health the weekend before he died.
