Goodness, I haven't been on this site for a long time. I used to frequent the threads here and there are quite a few comments from me early in this thread and in the other one. I was a student here and moved away 2 years ago, but still have family in York. I was always intrigued by the Nags Head and fancied going in one night for a pint and a look around, if anyone would fancy that sometime.
Just skimmed over some of the replies from the last few years and I had some brief thoughts (I'm sure more will come to me later though). I don't think Halliwell's father lived in York. I think he lived in Huddersfield and the press have sensationalised everything. He probably killed more people than we know but that makes the link to Claudia more tenuous.
Also, the guy in the CCTV I posted here years ago was apparently investigated and died shortly after Claudia's disappearance - I believe he was found to be clean and owned several rented properties in the area, which explains the footage to some degree. It's still suspicious but I always wondered if his stopping on the CCTV was more due to seeing someone he feared rather than wanting to hide. In the dark CCTV video taken at night - if you look at the house at the top left you can see halfway through it looks like someone has walked in front of the house - there is a figure there stood staring towards the road the man disappears down and towards Claudia's house.
Also, I read about the girl that was raped in the van and I think I knew her at the time. We weren't close by any means but she was on the same uni course as my housemate and friend from home - I will ask for more details from my ex housemate. I distinctly remember hearing about it - she had a lot of time off due to it. I miss York and I hope to move back someday, but it had its creepy elements - always reminded me a bit of Derry in Stephen King's It. A great city and one I miss but one with an undercurrent and an unseasonable amount of crime. It sounds like a silly conspiracy but at one point I wondered if there was any truth to the river pushing theory
