As per my previous post: RH said the man he saw leaving the garden was wearing a dark waxed jacket, like a Barbour. He also said the man was white, well-dressed and clean-shaven. Was BG clean-shaven in 1999? As RH was the only person to see the man leaving the scene of the crime, surely his...

I have just read the book Jill Dando: Her Life and Death by Brian Cathcart (first published 2001). On page 129 there is the description that RH gave to the police of the man he saw at the gate: 'He (RH) could not see the doorstep of number 29 but he had a clear view of the gate and there was a...

Whatever happened to the 'recent developments' that were due to be published in December 2023?

He didn't have an accountable alibi from day one though, did he? You yourself have stated that he initially told the police he drove a different way to his office (presumably past Aeolian House) before changing it to driving back via the village of Croft. So, right from the very start, he has...

IMO the timeline has always been problematic for the police, simply because over the years there has been different versions of it given by Mr Heron. The police have seemingly always been suspicious of his drive back to the office that afternoon. Lets not forget that Mr Heron gave a different...

Mr Heron's lunch break that day was between 1 - 2pm. The police have stated that Ann was killed between 4 - 5pm, so definitely not during the lunch hour. Mr Heron's drive home after the meeting at Cleveland Bridge has always come under suspicion, as there have been many different times given...

Hi again. In my previous post i did mean to ask you the following question: Mr Heron said that he drove back from Cleveland Bridge via Croft to his office in Middleton St George that afternoon, so at what point in this journey home did the first witness see him and also what time was it...

Thanks for replying. At what point did Mr Heron change his account of his drive from the meeting that day? We know that a week after Ann's murder the story of his affair with the barmaid became known but when did he tell the police that he had driven back to the office through Croft village...

You could be onto something there @SouthAussie! An altercation early morning with someone dumping rubbish - it's a possibility. Brittain Street is mentioned in the photograph, is that a street Samantha would be running on that Sunday morning?

Hi, I have asked you this question before back in December but you didn't reply. Did the witnesses who saw Mr Heron drive 'the long way back to the office' come forward with this information before or after he changed his statement about the route he took that day? TIA

It would be great if the police confirmed the time of the ping. I know the Daily Mail very early on published it was 5pm but that doesn't make sense to me, i still firmly believe the ping was around 8am and that was the information that led to the searches that afternoon shortly after 3pm...

The police have never stated the phone pinged at 5pm, that came from a very early report in the first couple of days after Samantha went missing but never confirmed by the police. Besides, the first searches for Samatha were that Sunday afternoon shortly after 3pm, so if that info came from the...

Speaking of the family business, was it open on the Sunday Samantha went missing? If it was closed i wonder if she was taken there that Sunday morning. Does it have an incinerator?

The recent developments you mention, are they related to your own investigations or are they relating to the Durham Constabulary's appeal for fresh information 6 months ago...

Defiant volunteers aim to carry on searching for Samantha: https://www.skynews.com.au/australia-news/crime/defiant-volunteers-invite-victorians-to-join-in-major-search-for-missing-mum-samantha-murphy-who-disappeared-mysteriously/news-story/5ebcffb62782357c3448ab6f489082ef
