This is my first post so please be gentle with me.
From day one I've thought Corrie went awol. I think he is gay.....not that it has any bearing on things but his mother stated he was not....how does she 100% know that.
The first police news conference she says he often walked home but at a later date says he never walked home.
If the puppy was left from Friday night to Monday morning wouldn't it have barked or cried if it hadn't been fed or let out?
IMO Corrie wanted to be seen that night. He was thrown out of the club...a bouncer would remember this....he played rock scissors paper with a stranger. He was wearing clothes that would get him noticed.
Tony is an intelligence officer.....
What were the 4 phone calls to Corrie's brother about. Youngster text. I could accept 4 texts but would they really speak 4 times on the phone.
If you're going awol but you want it to look like something else you appear missing.
Now there is a money raising page.
Curiouser and curiouser.
I think the walking home thing was a genuine misunderstanding. I think Corrie had done that back in Scotland and Nicola had maybe been told some lads walked home from Honington but it turned out that Corrie hadn't. I think it's just one of those things where young people move hundreds of miles from home and some things change but their parents aren't aware of every change or every detail?
It's hard to know about the puppy. I would have said it indicated that Corrie intended to go back that weekend, but we don't know the details of how much food was left out or anything like that.
For the bouncer and rock, paper, scissors, both of these things seem to be a result of drinking heavily...and it's a Friday night out, pub crawl followed by club. The clothing, while it might be Corrie's own style in some ways, isn't really abnormal for a night out when a young, single man might want to look and feel good just in case he meets someone? So how much can we really attribute those things to planning, and how much to it being a Friday night on the town and having a bit too much to drink for the liking of the bouncer at the club?
How many people who take off, from life or from non-deployment military, actually go to any lengths to cover all these details and plan all these things? Lots of people don't even put much planning in where they're going to go, but if anything that is what they will plan on, with things like stuffing some clothes into their usual bag, stashing money they've been withdrawing from the bank (if for some reason they don't want to use their old bank account, if that even happens in many cases?) Lots of people who have their own car will drive off in their own car. I would also posit that most people who want to disappear would say they're going out to school/work/friends place, and not turn up as opposed to going out to that place and then disappearing.
Normally I'd expect something like Corrie taking off on Saturday morning, telling his friends he's off to stay with a friend for the weekend, but the friend knows nothing about it and he never turns up.
Generally, I think the police do get a good sense of what's likely happened to someone. Some of the other missing people that have been noted from the Suffolk area during Corrie's time missing, we haven't heard of the same level of searching roadsides etc for them. And they've all turned out to be voluntary disappearances, and we've heard when they turned up, even if we didn't get details. So those people weren't in the military, they weren't technically AWOL...but neither did they have their family on TV crying because they don't think they'll ever see their loved one alive again.
Unless someone has actual evidence, I think we need to stay open to all reasonable possibilities. And I think on some level we must be doing that, or we wouldn't still be posting in this thread?
