Jury in Hillsborough inquests to deliver conclusions tomorrow

The jury in the Hillsborough inquests will deliver its conclusions tomorrow following 19 days of deliberations looking into the deaths of 96 Liverpool fans.

The jury in the Hillsborough inquests will deliver its conclusions tomorrow after answering a 14-part questionnaire relating to the deaths of 96 Liverpool supporters.

The nine jurors were informed by the coroner on Monday that they were allowed to reach a majority decision on whether the victims were unlawfully killed in the 1989 disaster.

It was granted after the jury could not reach a unanimous decision on question six, which reads: "Are you satisfied, so that you are sure, that those who died in the disaster were unlawfully killed?"

Answers to the remaining 13 questions are unanimous, and all 14 conclusions will be delivered tomorrow, but not before 11am.

The coroner has delayed the formal announcement to allow families of the victims to attend the makeshift courtroom in Warrington.

The jury has heard two years of evidence relating to the 96 people who died as a result of a crush in the Leppings Lane end of Hillsborough stadium during an FA Cup semi-final between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest on April 15, 1989.

The original 1991 inquests delivered a conclusion of accidental deaths, but fresh inquests were ordered when evidence of an alleged cover-up by South Yorkshire Police came to light in 2014.
