Can I add about the backroad into Newborough, it isn’t as quiet as you might think, you very rarely go down without having to pull in or have somebody pull in to let you by (possible appeal for dash cam footage could have been done?) Add in lockdown and this road was being used more by people avoiding the main road due to local groups citing that police were stopping individuals asking them where they were going. At night although it’s quiet you do still get people using it.
The issue is once you come out off of the backroad you have a left or right, left and right again you have places where cars park up and walk dogs, and seeing parked cars there wouldn’t arouse suspicion. Likewise, locally we have a place known locally as nine bridges (through Peakirk) that’s 5-10 minutes from Newborough. And cars park there all the time so you wouldn’t be surprised to see one.
I do wonder if the alarm was raised sooner that possible malicious harm had come to Bernadette that people would have volunteered in their hundreds if not thousands to help look for her, especially during lockdown and people having more free time.
edit: edit to say the backroad into Newborough is unfortunately cluttered with flytipping on a regular basis, so much that a lovely lady at the end is seen quite often litter picking. So seeing clothes or stuff that could be suspicious wouldn’t be looked at twice.
