Yeah but that is just a story relayed to a poster here (Polo?) and there is nothing official to suggest it is true yet. I will say that the details about most things in this case seem to have 3 options...
For the car: Halfords car park, Waitrose car park, On the road, Robert Boby Way
The time Corrie last seen on CCTV: 03:20, 03:24, 03:25
Going back to the phone....I would still like to know which site the bin went to once and for all (in the Forces TV video it showed Mildenhall town centre). From how DS Katie Elliott described the reasons why they didn't search the site is because the processing that takes place at the site and weighing up the likelihood of the phone either being destroyed or taken elsewhere. The latter is interesting because it is something I have thought right from the start. If the cardboard gets placed on a conveyor system monitored by people then a phone will be spotted and taken.
I worked at a recycling sorting centre in the early days back in the late 90's and it was disgusting most of the time (used more for general waste..) but you wouldn't believe the amount of money and valuable items that were disposed of. On the other hand the hundreds of hypodermic needles per shift kept you on you're toes....
It was standard for most things to be taken (though things like wallets and unopened mail were handed in in my experience)
