So you’re saying Haliwell is not white jacket man, he’s not alleyway man either - just to be clear? Also that he could never have had any contact with Claudia on the 18th or 19th so there’s no need to mention Haliwell ever again
Whether or not CH is a possible culprit in the Claudia case, it is definitely interesting to read the reasoning behind the verdict.
Diversionary tactics. I thought you were open minded. You don't seem very open to me.
Sorry, I'm confused here, why are we even discussing CH when it was established by the police that he was in hospital at the time of the CL disappearance? Pointless.
Halliwell was caught with a 'MISSING PERSON' poster in the rear of his TAXI as he aimed to pickup his next victim. A disarming tactic. https://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2012/10/20/article-0-1595384B000005DC-584_634x411.jpg
You might find it pointless but there were witnesses that said they saw CH in York two weeks previous to Claudia's disappearance. Another witness saw him waiting outside Nestle in a car. Another witness said they had seen Claudia asking a taxi driver for change so she could ring her dad. Dai said CH had never been to York I very much doubt that.
Sorry but I don't quite know how you interpreted what I said as that? I pointed out that as a taxi driver it wouldn't be unusual for him to be fuelling a car, and then an article with NYP's opinion about him. Nowhere at all did I say I personally didn't think he was or wasn't involved and nowhere did I say he was or wasn't worth considering.
Yes I agree with you suzie that’s what I’ve always thought Haliwell is just a tool for the diversionist along with RC and the new boyfriend, stranger….
Or murder weapon
Not quite sure why you insist in calling me Suzie. I am not and never have been a Suzie. If you think I'm SC you are a very bad sleuth. Susie Sixpence thank you.
He'd be a pretty inept murderer fumbling as he did and been seen so easily on CCTV, anyway whatever happened took place the following morning.
No one said phone was switched at Acombe !
Where was it switched off, near her home or the University?
Why couldn't CH be Alleyman and be a taxi driver? I don't see how they conflict...The POI mentioned before is also worth looking into. Acomb came from police reports of where the phone was switched off on the 19th. That's why they searched the Acomb pub, which has now changed its name to The Clockhouse - presumably to rid itself of assocatiations? POI stayed at a hostel in Acomb though. He could have hidden a bag or a phone perhaps, but I imagine if he hid a body it wasn't on site there. I posted CH's 'systems' of killing - to pick someone up in a car and force them somewhere, then dispose of the body and come back later to bury and/or burn it in remote areas. Car use would explain the absence of CCTV footage. Unless the police believe the locals know something as they suspect hidden/destroyed CCTV footage or else someone has the phone or bag. The phone and the bag needn't be int he same place, of course. Having finished work and got home, she is more likely to have the phone on her person than the bag with whites and straighteners. Especially if there was a call and she went outside on her phone. This is the only explanation I can think of for no forensics in the house - if she had been there on the evening of the 18th or early on the 19th. Leaving for work then getting in someone's car seems logical - but perhaps someone wanted it to LOOK that way. Particularly if they went back to the house to collect the bag and make it look as if she had gone to work. That makes it look like she was alive on the 19th, and not disappeared on the 18th, through someone luring her out fornt whilst she was on her phone on the evening of the eighteenth.
The police did. A 'residential address in Acomb.' They perhaps have an address, but no firm method or motive. Or even an identifiable person, if it was a rental address or linked with other people locally (landlords etc.).
I think POI is a possibility, but if he is Alleyman must be unrelated as he's a lot older? If Alleyman is completely unrelated, why has he been such a focus of attention for police? Why did the police make comment about the local community? We have missing information here, although I do find you POI compelling and I'm being pulled in different directions a lot. I think the methods and propensities of offenders do matter too. As far as we know, your POI has not killed. We know CH is definitely a repeat offender who plans his attacks. The POI does not. The POI also seems mostly to attack women very late at night (as in the small hours, rather than just before work), whereas CH does late at night and at early commute-times. It could be there's info about the POI I don't know relating to his attacks, but why the comments about the local community by police? There must also be local possible suspects too.
The police said her phone had pinged in Acomb in the weeks prior to her dissaperence. Her phone was turned off in a 9 mile sector from the Tockwith mast, this includes most of the top side of York including the university and her home, Acomb might be on the cusp of that arc but by no means the centre of it.
