Just to confirm that applications are open until 14 May.

Would birth announcements in the local paper(s) be worth looking into?

There seems to be some confusion about the situation. Earlier reports were that the woman she struck had died, which should lead to a charge of murder rather than attempted murder. The fact she has been charged (so far) with attempted murder suggests either that the other influencer has not been...

So Suzanne died of heatstroke rather than, say stroke, heart failure or cardiac arrest, which does make sense in the circumstances. I would imagine that she initially suffered exertional heatstroke due to the physical effort required during the section of the climb that she managed, and that...

If reports are to be believed, the incident arose from two women arguing over a man.

I hope so as well. I'm guessing that the guy who suffered "life-changing" injuries has probably lost a leg. This incident happened over 12 hours ago so I would have expected more details to have come out officially by now, especially as it's pretty clear that this is not a terrorist incident...

Yes, this is what is being reported on social media. One influencer ran another over, hitting two other people in the process. There are reports that the influencer who was struck has since died but this is yet to be confirmed by MSM.

Woman arrested after car driven into pedestrians in central London A woman has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after a car hit pedestrians in central London in the early hours of Sunday morning. A woman in her 30s is in hospital in a critical condition and a man in his 50s...

A quick look shows that some things match, ie the age range and the general facial likeness, but others don't, eg the height discrepancy. However I'll pass this on as a tip to the team handling the case.

A shotgun would also have that effect. Shotguns, especially sawn-offs, were the usual firearms used at this time by criminals. Handguns and, to a lesser extent, rifles had been brought into the UK by returning soldiers after WWII as trophies but were not widely used by criminals who were...

It was indeed very difficult once European countries fell under German control, although a few people made it out on fishing boats and similar. Indeed, a fishing boat to Shetland in Scotland was how the Norwegian royal family escaped to the UK. In addition, Dutch official resistance to the...

David's and Patrick's case is still well known here in the West Midlands but there are a number of differences involved. Firstly, it was in the pre-social media and legacy media age when how widely a case became known depended on whether it was reported locally/regionally or nationally and how...

It's also interesting that they don't have at least a first name for him, even if that would be a pseudonym, since I gather that at meetings each person attending introduces themself as "My name is X and I am an alcoholic". I'm not really familiar with what records they keep so don't know if...

Interesting stuff - thanks. So it's possible that Phye was a serial killer as well as a paedophile.

The chances of her being "kept in the house" by a man in a way that isolated her from others are very remote. I think it much more likely that either she moved to the West Midlands alone for factory or other war work or with a husband/partner looking for the same. Even women with young children...

I was under the impression that it was a matter of honour for the Mafia never to target women and children, regardless of what the man of the family might or might not have done (although other organised crime groups have done so, especially in more recent times).

These Spring Break baccanalias are pretty well-known even here in the UK. I imagine that much of the carnage is down to the higher minimum drinking ages in much of the US compared to Europe, so American students probably have less experience of handling drink if not necessarily drugs than...

At least he's been found and will be returned to his family, unlike Levi Davis who went missing in Barcelona in 2022 and remains missing.

It's rocky and uneven. He could have tripped/fallen, hit his head and slipped or rolled into the water.

Agreed. It feels more like a bid for attention than anything else.
