THE death of a woman found crushed in her hotel room after a night out remains a mystery three years on.
Chloe Haynes, 21, was discovered by her work friend trapped under a wardrobe at the Adelphi Hotel in Liverpool.

Despite initially arresting three men on suspicion of murder, police released them without charges.
Officers ruled Chloe’s death in September 2022 was as the result of a tragic accident.
A probe was launched by Liverpool Council’s Environmental Health department but this is still continuing three years on, Liverpool Echo reports.
Now any potential clarity surrounding Chloe’s death has been delayed even further after a pre-inquest review due to be held tomorrow was pushed back.
Chloe had travelled to Liverpool for an engagement party from the holiday park in North Wales where she worked.
She was sharing a room with her colleague, who later discovered her body.
Her mum Nicola Williams, from Wrexham, said at the time: “By midnight, she had been drinking shots and so on and she was a bit drunk, so her friend has taken her back to the hotel to sleep it off and then he’s gone back out.
“It seems she has got up out of the bed confused, not knowing where she is, and she’s opened the door of the wardrobe maybe thinking it is the toilet or the door to go back out of the room.
“It was a big, old, heavy wardrobe and it’s fallen on her and crushed her windpipe.”
Nicola said Chloe’s colleague raised the alarm, with three men rushing in to help lift the wardrobe.
Tragically, she could not be saved and was declared dead shortly after.
Liverpool Council carried out spot checks on the premises and issued prohibition notices to Britannia Hotels regarding the safety of the wardrobes found in Chloe’s room.
The checks also raised concerns over the condition of the hotel’s windows.
Britannia Hotels challenged the notices and the council agreed to drop them after seeing evidence work had been carried out to make them safe.
Paying tribute to her daughter, Nicola said: “My little nickname for her was birdy. She was so petite and little and when she ate she was like a little bird.
“She was quiet, she was somebody who didn’t speak unless it needed saying.
“But in the last 12 months she was coming out of her shell. She was gaining her confidence and she had a wide circle of friends.”
