A coronial inquest is investigating how Sean Collins came to take his own life in prison even though his family hired a private investigator to try and find him.

The Northern Territory coroner is investigating how an American citizen came to take his own life in Darwin prison in October 2017, after illegally overstaying his visa by almost three years.

His family, including his two sisters, had not known Collins was in prison in Australia until they were notified of his suicide. Collins, 32, had been a year into a maximum four year sentence for buying trafficable quantities of MDMA, LSD and cannabis on the dark web.
