I have just had a look at the Wilson family tree on Ancestry.co.uk and was surprised to see Ruth listed as born 31st Jan 1979, died 27th Nov 1995. So the owner of the tree must believe she is deceased Her mother is listed as Nesta Burdenshott Gate Landeg 1st May 1948 to Jan 1983 and her father...

There will be answers now and the family can at least lay him to rest. RIP Jay.

Not as rare as you might think, I know three people with no middle names. One was a newborn foundling and was given the name of the train station she was left at (Victoria). The other two the parents couldn't agree on any name they both liked so in one case the child was named after a...

Maybe because there was more chance of being spotted in town, if she was being collected she didn't want anyone to see the car or driver. Another possibility is whoever picked her up arranged where to meet because it was on their route.

She could easily have used public transport. It is worth remembering that CCTV on buses didn't become a thing until 2008, firstly in London and then other areas began to have them. In late November 1995 the only way Ruth would likely have been conclusively identified was if a fellow passenger...

I read it as JC was saying he had brought Logan up since he was a baby. He and AW had been together for around 4 years and had a baby together.

There are already calls to re-open the case of the Chillenden murders in light of this event. It seems unlikely that the same person is responsible for two attacks 25 years apart, but who knows. Michael Stone was a violent drug addict and certainly capable of attacking people but the...

Yes. As far as I remember it is a long-term camp, it was there 20 to 25 years ago.

My sister lived in Snowdown years ago. It is a very small village with only about 50 houses and a population of less than 250, everyone tends to know everyone else. If anyone from there is responsible the locals will know. It is literally down the road from Aylesham which, I believe, is the...

There may be innocent reasons why the hiker hasn't come forward, but he needs to be found and spoken to. I wonder if it would be possible to triangulate all mobile phone data for the area for say, the 22nd and 23rd of November, since there won't have been that many people up there. If LE...

I am still not convinced there were any valid sightings of Louise after Thursday evening (7th). The neighbour of Stuart Hazell 'saw' Tia Sharp setting off on her shopping trip even though the poor child was already dead and dumped in the attic. People can misremember even when they are trying...

Unfortunately that doesn't mean Louise was with the phone in the skate park. At the moment the last verifiable sighting of her was at Tesco's on the evening of Thursday 7th May.

Like you, I am puzzled too. I understood it to mean the couple noticed Crying Girl, carried on walking anti-clockwise and saw her again as they were completing their lap. If she was making her way towards the Premier Inn (possibly directed there by whomever she was speaking to on the phone)...

Me too.

The weekend before Christmas is going to be one of the busiest of the year. At 7.30 pm people will be leaving work, going to work, shopping, visiting others, starting an evening out etc. The chances of spotting an ordinary looking individual, who is dressed unremarkably on CCTV are slim. Add...
