Has anyone heard of the Janet Murgatroyd case from 1996? Attacked and murdered in Preston, Lancs. Body disposed in the river. Three suspects really.....main ones. Andrew Greenwood (whom served time for this crime, then was released), A local drug addict (Raymond Hayes), who was found with some of her possessions and her ex boyfriend. Is anyone on here from the Lancashire area and knows anything about this case? She was walking home across a bridge after a night out, she had been watching the England national soccer team playing in the Euro 96 soccer tournament. Andrew Greenwood confessed to the murder, and pleaded drunken memory loss. He was later released after appeal. Apparently police had not entered a piece of evidence (DNA on underwear) that linked her ex BF. Police have stated that they will not pursue anymore suspects or evidence in the case. Does anyone who is familiar with the case agree with this stance? Raymond Hayes was the other suspect in the case was a known thief (currently in jail for it) who was questioned due to being in possession of some of Janet's belongings. He admitted to taking items from her, not realizing she was deceased. He was cleared based upon a strange alibi linked to the temperature of a takeaway he took home to friends after. Apparently this made the timeline impossible. I find Mr.Hayes extremely interesting. If you look into her offenses after, they are mainly attacks from behind. Does anyone else feel like the alibi is flimsy and convenient?
