Everything but the kitchen sink

The sink picture was reported on Itn news when CL first went missing. Like the hair dye picture and other evidence, bus cctv, focus cctv - the police have revealed it for a reason - they feel
It’s important. When you read about the case - “the left handed smoker” comes into view on a couple of occasions - with a black hoodie seen on melrosegate bridge “allegedly “ and a cig end found in CLS car also is said to
Belong to a left handed smoker. We think
CL is right handed but some of the cutlery and toothbrush seems to be placed in the sink by a left handed person - I think it may be relevant
- there again it may not. Another observation is if you look at the two top dishes they both look like breakfast bowls - both used by Claudia on following days or perhaps by someone who
Has stopped over - two glasses of wine, two pints, two breakfast dishes - left together out of sight from the rear of her home in the morning? A married man locally well known?

Could she have been drying out her tooth brush on the drainer because she was planning on packing it and taking it somewhere with her? Nobody wants to put a soggy toothbrush in their bag next to their pants. Probably unlikely but it’s what came to mind. MOO.

The longer this search goes on with no news the more I think the police have found nothing of interest.

Was just going to ask...when was the last actual Police update given thread has veered back into theories of the night of the 18th....Thursday, Wednesday?

Was hoping they'd pinpointed a good spot and found things of interest but you'd have thought they'd have announced that already while continuing more searches around the gravel pit.

I don’t think they have anything, I’ve looked over the area and it’s absolutely vast - plus there’s all the mod land surrounding it - haystack and needle spring to mind. It’s a lottery - they will need to be exceptionally lucky to find anything after 12 years and that’s if there’s anything there.

I don’t think the house or the breakfast dishes or the toothbrush has anything to do with Claudia going missing, I think she was grabbed on the way to work and bundled in the car.

As soon as she left her door as two possible cctv captures before touching the end of her road. Just feel someone would have heard a scream or a scuffle in that small time frame x

 

[Novosti]

Yes, on balance it seems more likely that she left Heworth Road (unclear from which address) in a vehicle, rather than on foot.

Has anything been researched on CL house. The outside layout looks like it might have once connected to next door? The roofing is the same as the house to the right…. But a different height.

Did the later added extension to her house have any skylights that would access the bathroom and kitchen?

From the info I’ve seen, the houses on Heworth Road were built mid 1800s. Number 50 is noted as “letter receiving office” on the 1852 OS Map. They could well have shared loft spaces as some houses built around that time do not have dividing barriers in lofts.

I viewed a number of similar age houses a few years ago - some had shared loft space and others had dividing walls put in much later.

It’s for sale if you fancy a viewing

There are both unidentified dna and partial fingerprints found in Claudia's house Forensic re-examination theory

Claudia bought her house 2 years before she left for the last time. The DNA samples could belong to the previous owners and any one of their friends or any workmen who entered the house - plumber, electrician, handyman...

Just thought some might find this article on how science is helping the police search for bodies in water an interesting read

Was just hoping the enviornmental search had clocked something given all the resources that have been put into this search e.g. they'd found a possession of CL's as speculated on here and they concluded the body would be somewhere close to this although of course it could've been buried elsewhere or even moved in the 12 years since.
