I think the 'Ford Factor' is just a coincidence with Wright. It is believed the keys came from either a Transit, Escort or Fiesta whereas Granada's and Mondeo's are much bigger estates. Melanie Hall was severely assaulted with a fractured skull and broken jaw which suggested a 'frenzied'...

It does seem odd to confess to a murder when he never admitted to anything previously. I don't know how all these processes work though it was interesting watching the recent '24 Hours In Police Custody' on Carson Grimes, where they were talking about if he went to court then he could lose his...

I would suggest the Vicky Hall murder was purely on circumstances. Unfortunately she was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

If you go to 31:17 of the Crimewatch report then you have an image of what I assume is her bedroom. You can see no curtains and smoke damage up the one window. Without lining everything up, I assume the passer by has seen the flames from here. It's interesting how isolating the fire was from...

Maybe they have the same queries we do. What exactly did he see? Why report on the phone he did? Other reasons just to eliminate him from their enquiry.

Again, what is the motive with the fires? She was stabbed multiple times, strangled and hit with a blunt object. There was no need for the fire with regards her death. Her body may of laid undiscovered for days without the fire. Which has got me thinking. Has someone hunted for matches to start...

I think there should be more emphasis/consideration on why the fires were started? What was the killer trying to achieve? Joy was already dead so logical reason would be to hide something. But what? Clearly not enough dna evidence that would lead back to the killer plus trying to burn a 6th...

I think you may be putting too much emphasis on the fires. The problem is we have so little to go on barring a few photos of the aftermath and a phonecall supposedly seeing flames. Not every fire turns into a blazing inferno or spreads even in a contained room. How many fires just fizzle out and...

The running man in the Crimewatch report was suggested "some time just after 10.30". I don't believe there has ever been a description of the caller? Surely if Joy had some kind of association with a 6ft 4 black man then it would of cropped up in investigations at some point? If he was a paid...

I can see where the idea of two people involved works, I just don't see the overall logic of it. Majority of murderers wouldn't involve another person as they don't want the added risk of more people knowing what happened. But this tall black man has ran out of the flat having killed Joy, gone...

We have no idea when that footage was taken so for all we know it may just be stuff left on the table by a detective or investigator. E-fits etc would seem very strange items for Joy to have, let alone left in full sight, whilst if it related to her killer then they would surely of destroyed...

The bit I found interesting was when the police turned up, she admitted to most of it, apart from insisting that she didn't start it ("The first ones didn’t start, like, with me"), putting it down to "random, or whatever". She has admitted to everything else so why not just say she started it...

I'm actually just looking into this possibility. Yes, it is different MO but is this murder the reason for the change? Maybe he didn't feel comfortable murdering elsewhere and probably vulnerable to being caught which is why he moved on to prostitutes (generally) and 'luring' victims to his flat...

This is what interests me. It was quoted earlier that it was a "smouldering" fire started in the living room and bedroom. If that was the case, then I would be surprised if a passer-by would see anything up in a 6th floor flat. Would there have been flames from a smouldering fire? Not in my...

It's not a jacket but his satchel, as seen in the King's Cross footage.
