Charges are unlikely to be faced by the two DJs whose prank call was linked to a nurse’s suicide.
The tragic mother, Jacintha Saldanha, 46, was discovered hanged just days after being deceived. She transferred the call from the Australian DJs to the hospital room of pregnant Kate Middleton, who was receiving treatment for severe morning sickness.
Authorities in Sydney disclosed that no request to question the pranksters, Mel Greig, 30, and Michael Christian, 25, has been received from Scotland Yard. “Nor do we anticipate any requests,” stated police chief Nick Kaldas.
Last week, British police sent a file to the Crown Prosecution Service — however, Australian authorities feel it may be challenging to identify a charge against the 2Day FM hosts.
This month, Greig and Christian called London’s King Edward VII Hospital while pretending to be the Queen and Prince Charles.
Three days later, Jacintha, who resided in Bristol, was found deceased. She had previously attempted suicide on two occasions within the year.
