2-Year-old girl died at home after drinking toilet cleaner before sister knew

A two-year - old girl, Arietta-Grace Barnett, died on Tuesday, June 30 after drinking toilet cleaner, a very toxic household drug, attending an inquiry into her cause of death.


Once she ingested the drug, Arietta-Grace Barnett was at home and her sister had found it. Then, she was rushed to Southampton General Hospital by her sister.



She returned home four days later after receiving treatment but suffered a nose bleed and began vomiting blood six days later then she died after she was rushed to the same hospital again.



The sad incident happened in June last year, Portsmouth Coroners Court heard today.



Her parents Lucy Cook and Scott Barnett attended the preliminary opening of the inquest according to the Sun UK.

Area coroner for Hampshire, Portsmouth and Southampton, Rosamund Rhodes-Kemp said: "On the 28th June 2019 (she) ingested toilet cleaner.

"On the 9th July, very sadly Arietta-Grace Barnett suffered a nose bleed and then she started vomiting blood.

"She was taken back to hospital but unfortunately it was not possible to save her."



The family reportedly wants a full inquest so Coroner Rhodes-Kemp has said the date and location of the full inquest, which will take two days, is yet to be determined.
