A date has been set for an inquest into the death of a London man who was electrocuted while on the job.
Jeremy Bowley, 21, died on Aug. 1, 2013 when a pole for a tent being set up for a wedding at a farmhouse near Watford contacted an overhead power line.
The inquest, which is mandatory under the Coroners Act, will include testimony from around 18 witnesses and examine the events surrounding Bowley’s death.
