A WOMAN died after taking a lethal mix of alcohol and drugs, an inquest heard.
Jennifer Skinner, 41, was found collapsed over a bath at her home in Davis Field, New Milton, on July 30 last year.
Her inquest at Southampton Coroner’s Court heard Miss Skinner’s post-mortem found the alcohol in her system was the equivalent of more than four times the legal driving limit.
A high level of morphine was also found, the inquest heard.
Deputy coroner Gordon Denson recorded a verdict of accidental death.
