There are lots of images online of the Kajuru Castle, a private house in castle style built in the 1980s by a German expatriate to vaguely resemble European castles and rented out for parties and events with a small capacity for overnight stays (five rooms). The kidnappers did not enter the...

Faye Mooney, a Briton, was one of the two persons shot dead at Kajuru Castle in Kaduna state on Friday morning. Suspected bandits had attacked the holiday resort but two mobile policemen guarding the facility were said to have prevented them from gaining access to the facility. A source told...

That she worked in a pub has little bearing on whether she would know drug "users". Again, you're not specifying the "drugs" you are suspecting here. Most people in and out of pubs will know someone who smokes weed for example. Moreover, there is a bit of an ignorant inclination to think that...

Unless one of you is going to claim responsibility, I highly doubt that anything we say could prejudice the trial. I mean, there wouldn't be any "trial" threads on this website if discussion of the case would prejudice them... http://www.websleuths.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?8-Trials

Glad this thread is still open - I messaged a couple of mods to keep it open after the trial but they responded as if it wasn't the done thing after a trial is over. Very frustrating and probably dispersed the number of attentive people who went to the trial with me. I went to this trial for...

What makes you think that drug use/purchase was involved? What kind of drugs are you referring to? Do you think there's a possibility her friends aren't "giving all information they can"?

I went to the park last night around 8pm. There was an eerie, still calmness. A very lonely place to die. The police tent is still up. The entrances to the park are all open well after dark - in fact I stood in front of the sign with all the tributes in the park entrance nearest her house. You...

The only people who buy cannabis off the street in London are tourists or teenagers, or the incredibly naive. Cannabis is not hard to procure in London and a few calls around to friends will find someone who can provide a social amount of something in a safe context. Given she worked in...

I think it's a pretty clear cut case. This was an opportunistic killing and potentially a sexual assault (that's speculation though) by a vagrant as she walked through a large, dark park at night, in an area notorious for being home to all kinds of people down on their luck. They will either...

Yeah that's what I said earlier, if you're familiar with the route you will do it if there is a significant convenience, the more often you do it the more familiar it is and the less dangerous it seems. Kind of makes me think twice about taking a shortcut from now on though...

Finsbury Park really is an unreformable hellhole. As a lifelong Londoner, this area is the only place where I still feel unsafe after dark. It was once very grand around Finsbury Park, with huge Victorian mansions all along Seven Sisters Road opposite the park. At some point (after the war?)...

The suggested fastest route from the World's End Pub to her home at 94 Upper Tollington Park (at the junction of Oakfield Road) using Citymapper app suggests taking the bus to stop Q and then walking through the park. She lives very near the park. https://citymapper.com/trip/Tkjm4oo...

shocking crime. I take that bus home to North London from Camden and know the scene and the transport well. I've never heard of this kind of thing happening in all my time of living, working and socialising in Camden.

Does anybody know which prison IS is in?

I've found a good source for those interested in the pathology of the body. This pathologist's textbook describes all manner of human death (with illustrations - not for the faint hearted) but what's interesting in the chapters on suffocation (ch 14, p352) and "immersion" (ch 16, p395, bodies...
