Re:Information on past offence  
OK, how long ago was he sent to prison? Did he died there? If you know the area in which he was convicted then contact the local magistrate or crown court for information on the case, you will need to have his DOB, and any additional information, month and year of conviction etc...as regard to his death then the local coroner will be able to assist.  Best of luck! If stuck get back to me, or here, etc.

Re:Intro + Search Help  
You have to find the defendants case on the sentences page then click on the whole line (like excel ) and then it opens up to show you the conviction etc but it is hard to find the cases are they are not up to date prob about a month behind .

Re:is it wrong to think this.  
This makes sense for countries where the death penalty still exists.

Where a criminal commits murder or other offences where the sentence is death, they can never pay back for their crimes. However if the penalty is death, maybe their body should be made available to the health services to help save other lives.

Re:Is my sentence spent?  

Whether or not your conviction is spent depends on the length of the sentence given for the offence. This runs from the date of the conviction. If you have been given a sentence of more than 30 months (2 ½ years) imprisonment, your conviction/s will never become spent. Depending on your age at the time of conviction, most convictions become spent after five years. If you were an adult at the time and received a term of imprisonment of more than 6 months but not exceeding 30 months (2 ½ years) the (Rehabilitation) period is 10 years. For periods of imprisonment up to 6 months the (Rehabilitation) period is 7 years.
 
There is a useful guide here: http://www.justice.gov.uk/downloads/offenders/rehabilitation/rehabilitation-offenders.pdf. Note :- The Rehabilitation of Offenders Act has exceptions where you have to reveal spent convictions to employers (when the job concerns sensitive areas such as work with children and vulnerable adults, work in law enforcement and the legal system, and high level financial positions).
