"They said he fought for his life. There were signs of a broken hand, as if he'd given somebody a good right hook. And they found trauma to his ribs and his back, as if he'd been grappling with someone and they'd been punching him in the ribs. Police believe he'd been left somewhere for a week or more before they buried him, because there were fingers and ribs missing as if he'd been ravaged by foxes and badgers. Whoever killed him went back to make sure he was never found."

Discovering the identities of who the police suspect were the two main culprits dealt a great shock. Both individuals are now deceased and cannot be named due to legal restrictions; however, Russell maintains frequent interaction with the grandchildren of the two men suspected of murdering his grandfather, admitting, "They are people I have daily contact with. It came as quite a blow actually".
