This assessment triggered a decision by the jobcentre to stop his sickness benefits, leaving him just £40 a week to live on. His housing benefits were stopped at around the same time.<p>&gt;The Oxfordshire coroner, Darren Salter, said that although it was impossible to identify the cause of death, it was probably &quot;caused or contributed to by Wood being markedly underweight and malnourished&quot;. He weighed 5st 8lbs (35kg) when he died; <i>his doctor said his body mass index was not compatible with life.</i>
