Im liking Martin Joyce as a possible match. They thought he was buried at a pub, but found nothing. Last seen 13 miles from Bolton in 1999.

It sounds like they will try to identify him through DNA. Sad case all around but hopefully answers come soon.

@sonz82 Good finds on possibilities.

It's appalling that those youtubers found human remains and not only disturbed the crime scene, but picked the remains up.

Arseholes. They could have jeopardised a murder investigation just to make their youtube video a bit more interesting.

What people do for their own 5 minutes of "fame". In case of yt, it is also an economic factor, the more sensational videos (and "creepy" sells well!) you post, the more people watch them which in turn makes you earn more money.

I'm a local and it was found to be historic and not linked to any current investigations

 

[Susikatze]

Now comes the big question, who deliberately put an old medical specimen or an archeological skull into the bushes to be found on camera?

Do you happen to have an article to link?

Oh, I misunderstood and thought there was yet another update, newer information. Hopefully that will come with time.

Maybe a prop for their video.

I live in Bolton, my first thought was Sheila Fox, who disappeared from the next street over from me many years ago. But I don't think this is a child's skull

That article is similar to the one i posted weeks ago, the skull is less than 50 years old. It isnt ancient.

It doesnt appear that there's any updates yet.
