There is a parallel situation here in the UK in connection with the "Grooming Gangs" scandal. Now that the extent of the issue is more widely known here, a number of people have come forward and said that they knew of the problem but felt unable to speak out earlier for fear of being accused of...

"A historical anti-slavery note long believed to have been lost forever has been discovered in the depths of an American Baptist church archive. Volunteer Jennifer Cromack made the extraordinary discovery while trawling through 18th and 19th century journals which had been stored in boxes for...

Is this Diligent Corporation or another software company also using the Diligent name?

I have long been of the opinion that the verdict in this case was dodgy and that Bamber would never have been convicted by a modern jury. The case has to be looked at in the context of the time at which he was convicted. He was convicted in 1986, only two years after PACE (the Police and...

My understanding, based on what a Sikh woman told me at university, is that these are not strictly surnames but titles. Singh means "Lion" (denoting a warrior - all Sikh men are deemed to be warriors) and Kaur means "Princess" as all Sikh women are considered to be of high or noble status...

Agreed. He could have been an agency worker covering a few weeks' holiday here, a few months' sick leave there. It would all have added up to frequent moves without necessarily raising red flags. Also agreed. Here in the UK there are regular pronouncements about increasing male entry to such...

"About 1,200 children are being urged to undergo testing for infectious diseases after a Melbourne childcare worker was charged with a string of offences including child rape. Joshua Dale Brown was arrested in May and faces 70 charges, with police alleging he abused eight children - including a...

I understand that although some of the younger generation in India are finding their own partners, eg someone they were at university with or work with, traditional arranged marriages are still very much the norm for the majority. Even for those who identify a partner for themselves, the...

Desirable in what way? As I said, she's a bit old for an Indian bride unless very well educated/professional, which she does not appear to be. She is pretty and has a light complexion, which do go in her favour. I'm curious as to the requirements for obtaining a fiance visa in the US. What...

Things don't add up here for me. 24 is pretty old for an Indian bride, unless she was a well-educated/professional woman who had completed university before looking to marry. But then, I would very much expect her to speak fluent English and for her to be looking for a similarly educated and...

So basically, switch it off and back on again.

Clearly she has now served her purpose and can be discarded.

On the contrary, the US is just about the only country in which this could happen - outside, perhaps, of one or two places in Central America.

That baby will also have lacked pre-birth interaction with its mother. From what I have read, women who are happy in their pregnancy (which presumably Adriana was) constantly talk and sing to and generally interact with the foetus so mother and baby are bonded before the birth. How can this baby...

Sea currents in that part of the North Sea run north to south, so they will probably be looking for her body along the coast towards Holderness and Lincolnshire.

Boeing again - albeit apparently the first serious incident involving a dreamliner. Of course the cause of the crash may turn out to be nothing to do with the plane itself, but at this stage one feels obliged to do a chinny-reckon.

I'm not sure that that is correct. The only companies which currently allow LE to access their databases are GEDmatch and Family Tree DNA, and only then if the member explicitly opts in to LE accessing their matches.

This thread has been quiet for a week or two but there is an article in today's Mail claiming that Brits are being specifically target as drug mule. Of the cases they discuss, the only one I would consider "vulnerable" is that of 79 year old William Easement whose age suggests he could be...

I doubt it. I may be cynical, but too many Met cops have turned this into an annual jolly in the sun for them to give it up without a fight.

It's not as simple as that. A team at Locate has been working on Wembley Point Woman for a year or more and (IIRC) she was the subject of a huge media push a few months ago by our media team. If it's the case I'm thinking of, it actually got a lot of take-up by local news sheets and other media...
