I think you may be referring to when they used a cross reference system and narrowed down to where Leah's phone last pinged to one square mile - this included Loxbeare Drive.
The police visited all the properties in this area, however if they didn't get a reply all they did then was put a...

Picking up on some of the points raised:
Speaking to The Mirror about the distressing handling of the case by the force, John said: 'It was torture, we understand the police were doing the...
This subject has been discussed before on the thread, and the info was from Christopher Berry-Dee.

I think JC has to be considered a suspect. However, i don't believe he was responsible for Suzy's disappearance - i have always thought it was someone she knew who abducted her that day.
It would be good to know exactly who and how many people the police interviewed at the time, and if they...
The Crimewatch show has MG going to 37SR around 4.30pm. If he didn't have a set of keys and couldn't get into the property, why go back later?
As you say, AS doesn't make it clear if MG actually went inside 37SR or not. It's only the Crimewatch reconstruction that shows MG & a male colleague...
The Crimewatch reconstruction has MG (and colleague) at 37SR around 4.30pm. We know from AS's book he visits 37SR again, and we also know that he phones the police to report Suzy missing at 6.45 that evening. I would reckon that his second visit to SR would be around 6.00 - 6.30.
I wonder...
It does say in the book (very briefly on page 10) that MG 'returned to Shorrolds Road again: still nothing'.
It doesn't state what time this second visit was, or if he spoke to HR again, but he did say to the police officer that HR 'now thought' the couple had been arguing and the woman was...
It has never been stated who MG went with when he went to 37SR that afternoon. In AS's book (page 8), it just states that he went 'with a colleague'. In the Crimewatch reconstruction, it of course shows him banging on the door and looking through the window of 37SR with a male colleague, so...
The police believed that Suzy had driven to Stevenage Road, met someone there, and had then gone to Shorrolds Road to view the property, tying in with HR's alleged sighting of a couple around 1.00pm.
What doesn't make sense about this scenario is that, if Suzy thought it was a genuine...
AS's book explains this perfectly clearly on page 26:
WJ called for a neighbour, AM. She noticed as she did so that a white Ford Fiesta was parked by AM's garage, slightly overlapping the entrance, and she wondered whether AM's husband LM would have difficulty getting his car into the garage...
Although we know that WJ, the taxi driver and the owner of the garage all say they saw Suzy's car parked overlapping the driveway that day, i don't recall any of them saying that they saw Suzy's straw hat in the back of the car.
WJ passed the car 4 times that day, on her way to the...
This is a likely scenario, that she was hoodwinked into meeting someone at Stevenage Road.
However, the fact that the driver's door was unlocked, the handbrake off and her purse left in the car suggests that someone else parked it there and left in a hurry.
Like everything else in the mystery...
Just for the record, these are the places the police have searched for Suzy's remains since the case was re-opened in 2000:
2000 - Norton Barracks
2001 - Quantock Hills
2001 - Norton Barracks
2003 - Shipton Road, Sutton Coldfield
2004 - Shipton Road, Sutton Coldfield
2010 - Drakes Broughton...
As you have pointed out, JC has become the sole focus for the police, especially since the case was re-opened in May 2000:
https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2000/may/13/paulkelso
The Sturgis office kept details of clients but there wasn't any for a Mr Kipper, which gives credence to the idea that...
Only the fact that her car was found in Stevenage Road at 10pm that night.
AS's book contains a lot of information from the police investigation at the time, the book was published in 1988. However, it seems a lot of people either overlook or don't believe what was written in the book, so...
If you are referring to the Crimewatch October 1986 show, DSI Carter holds up a Sturgis yellow fob - there were no keys attached to them.
If the keys were left in the office, then why didn't MG take them with him when he went to look for Suzy that afternoon at 37SR?
MG goes to Shorrolds Road...
If Suzy didn't take the keys or the house details with her, then what's the explanation as to what happened to them. They have never been seen again?
DV seems to have spread this myth about Suzy not taking the keys, but as some posters on this thread have pointed out, whether the appointment...
