yes, popejohn, I. agree with you....and if anyone knows names, they should come forward, if only to eliminate someone who just doesn't want to get involved...easy to say, I know.

you can call it female intuition...id call it. something else...but when jk uses. her graphic language, she usually hits the nail on the head.

if you remember, she said shed had a dream about claudia, who said it had all become too much...I think thats the key..and. I think its what kir was saying...I suspect the catalyst was something that happened at that big weekend at the nags and there were lots of reasons why they all decided claudia was just too dangerous for them....I dont know to what extent jealous boyfriends or their partners played a role

When you say they ALL decided Claudia was too dangerous... can you tell us roughly what figure you have in mind ? 3 people ? 4,5,6 more ?

I wouldnt read too much into dreams so many factors can effect dream sleep.. drink, medication drugs

This is what the CL case needs.
Police force uses podcast in bid to crack 23-year-old unsolved murder of delivery driver | Daily Mail Online
A police force have become the first in the UK to use a Making A Murderer-style podcast in a bid to crack an unsolved 23-year-old homicide.
Derbyshire Constabulary have teamed up with podcasters to create a 64-minute episode about the murder of Michael Pritchard who was killed in November 1997.
Despite one of Derbyshire Police's biggest ever manhunts and a string of high-profile appeals over the years, Mr Pritchard's killer has never been caught.
Now, the case will be coming under the scrutiny of internet sleuths as part of a new True Crime Investigators UK podcast.
The force has turned to the unique method following the success of Netflix true crime documentaries such as The Staircase, Amanda Knox, Abducted In Plain Sight and the Disappearance of Madeline McCann.

Presented by retired cops John and Sally Midgley, the episode features an emotional interview with Mr Pritchard's widow, Hilary, and contributions from senior officers.

Surely the money would be awarded AFTER a conviction?

I dont know how many people were responsible for the decision to kill claudia...I personally think a mixture of locals and non locals were involved, so it, really depends how many factions or gangs were involved...presumably the couple of most influential people from each one.

I dont think jk ever had that. dream....I think saying that. was her way of explaining why claudia died

I agree @cortina

A quick question did newby and cummings know Blake B?

 

[cortina]

if there was only one person who was responsible for the whole operation, then I think it was the head of the drugs chain of. which the Heworth crowd were a part....he may. also have been Claudius lover or he may have presented a meeting as a date...or not....I don't know if he did the dirty work himself or not...it would have been someone with considerable power who could frighten others and could get others to work for him in York and at least one other part of the country.

however many , or few. people or groups were involved, I think they saw Claudia as a destabilising force who could get them into trouble.

its so frustrating feeling you can't do anything to help solve this

 

[cortina]

who are Blake b Cummings and newly
