One of the men seen outside Claudia's house a week or so before her death may have been Cuban (Asian looking).
 
> Car in garage: everything PJ3 mentions: why when where who how. Was this pivotal to a well planned attack?
> Ford Focus: as per Yozzer, was this Snelling? Was this someone else who lived on Heworth Road? Neither? Is there additional CCTV?
> Texts: as per ML analysis, Sammons may have offered a room to stay in to minimise costs if not help with paying for her flight. I wonder if he and Claudia had previously set a date for her visit but someone else she knew from Cyprus was visiting/not busy say a week later and she wanted to meet up with them both. A little white lie about flight costs that week to achieve this is hardly manipulative but perhaps would point to the sensitivity of either Sammons, the other guy, or both, of each other. Or perhaps it made Claudia feel better to say so, which jives with the compartmentalisation she, like many other fairly normal people applied to her life depending on the situation, either way. It wouldn't be hard to see if Claudia was lying though, and there might be evidence of this in their internet browsing history. Missing x in Jen text could be a clue too as PI said. The exchange with her chemist worker friend's text coincidentally or not strongly suggests she planned to walk to work the next day. Weather that morning too. Is there someone close to her Malton friend who may have found out this information and acted upon it for whatever reason? Claudia texting her first makes me less inclined to believe foul play was committed by her after finding out this information. Perhaps it does point to them having recently met up, placing her recently in Malton or York depending on who visited who and how often and the nature of their exchanges. They'd holidayed together in the past - perhaps Malton friend settled down and the girly holidays ended, for practical reasons as much as anything else if she had children. Claudia eventually moved to York, met Suzy, and began a perhaps similar functioning friendship. Despite being one of Claudia's oldest friends she was distant in her Missing Person appeal.
 
Her partner has been charged and dropped a

Yes-JK does not endear herself to the public in the same way that Suzy Cooper does-Why is that?
I think her view of the investigation changed in 2015 when I detected a harder tone set in which conflicted at times with the message she appeared to want to portray in interviews. SC on the other hand, has never shifted position from being a genuinely devastated and lost soul.
 
I am posting this still so that you can all review.
It is from the CCTV of the car that is believed to break as it nears Claudias house on the morning of 19th March.
I have placed a square box around "Something" I would like your view of??

Looks like a romantic clinch?
I didn't think of there being 2 people but might be. I see what looks like a backpack with the black x shape (of straps?). Also long legs with what might be blue jeans. If someone was standing so near to the road, did the driver first brake to avoid him/her? Then second brake to reverse park perhaps?

The video shows movement of the figure(s) as the car passes by. But could this als be someone who saw Claudia being dropped off by this car from an all nighter with her "New Boyfriend" who then went on to seek revenge?-Motive.

Driver breaking because he was curious

Like a stalker who was staking out the place? Most adults would just sit in a car parked on the road though surely? Unless they lived very locally I suppose, which we know some suspects did/do.

Perhaps taking the "Dog" for a walk? Who did she know that had a dog?

what is the context of the facebook post?
@Nikynoo I am not sure really but of all the nasty comments on FB, I thought that this was up there as one of the worst. it was posted on FB around the period of 15th May 2010 and here are the messages that responded. This exchange of anger was only raised by another FB member in August 2018 as possibly relevant to the case.
It could have been a man or woman scorned.

Claudia was known to (Shown in CCTV from her leaving work) The fashionable at that time-flared denims. In the Crime watch reconstruction she had a dark short jacket on which was different from the normally noticed light short jacket.
