We need to know if Bellfield really did know Patsy. In any case, I believe he was responsible for the phone calls.

It may be out there, but I've never seen a good source for LB actually knowing Patsy, or going to the same school as her, or confirmation he was absent from school that day.

He could be responsible for the phone call, but so could any young local weirdo. LB also had a very squeeky voice as an adult, so must have been ridiculously high pitched as a twelve year old.

Bumping this sad case ahead of tomorrow's 45 year appeal...

If she actually knew Bellfield, Bellfield is probably the killer. Most people probably never meet a single serial killer in their lives and the odds you could know one but get murdered by another are astronomical. Same deal as the murdered little girl who was a neighbour of Ted Bundy’s when Bundy was 13 or 14 - Occam’s Razor is that the known killer who knew the victim is probably the one that did it.

Problem is that the English tabloid media is so freaking terrible that you really have no idea what is true in this case. It just appears to be decades of misinformation repeated as fact. Bellfield’s sensationalized ‘hatred of blondes’ being used as evidence he killed this brunette is just bizarre.

It would be nice if police could actually clarify what the relationship between the two was when they’re doing fresh appeals.
