i find this quite frustrating - i've been trying to find out if any further action has been taken in a cyclist fatality case in July close to where i live, but haven't been able to find any information other than the initial press coverage.
has anyone had any luck contacting the police directly to see what the status of an investigation is? or would they not give out that kind of info to a member of the public?
They wouldn't, except to people involved with the case, e.g. lawyers, especially if there's a court case, which is obviously sensitive in respect of how much information is reported in public.
Also bear in mind that some families/friends want to be left to grieve in peace for a relative or friend, while others want to grieve in public (and others are in between those extremes). If you're unconnected to the case, your best chance is to pay attention to the inquest listings at your local coroner's court and go to the inquest when it happens.
