UK UK - Corrie McKeague, 23, Bury St Edmunds, 24 September 2016 #17

[eilyfletch]

So if C was using his phone on the way to BM it says to me he was still alive which then brings me back to the vehicles specifically the one with no reason to be in the HS area. I then think about what the guy from sulsar said about C being hit by a car and then his body being hidden. I keep going bk to that theory. I think possibly his phone ran out of batt or the perp turned it off.

If his phone was in use then it couldnt have been in the bin lorry. But it might not have been Corrie using it. Remember he was not seen using his phone at all on cctv that night.

I remember N said that tracked his phone on a few pings as apps updated on their own. Now there is the story he might have been using the phone as it travelled to BM or someone did. Why does this keep happening with this story I wonder? This case is confusing.

 

[eilyfletch]

Yes we know he used it in his Car as he was talking to his brother but didnt the police say they didnt see him use it in hughes doorway. But in both cctv clips of C his pockets look full telling me he still had his phone

I think we're all as confused as you are with regard the constantly changing stories. I've never known a case like it!!

If you think about it we haven't really heard that much from the police, certainly no more than normal, but some of what they have said has been purely in response to family comments and/or social media speculation. I can't help but feel it would be useful for Suffolk Police to issue a timeline or something official to curb some of the wittering that is going on.

Suffolk Police have confirmed they have identified the cyclist ... I'm trying to add the link but it won't let me

they state they are still looking for the other 2 (the older gentlemen and the person walking through bus station area)

Here you go, Jayneyt.

Police have identified the cyclist shown in recently released CCTV images

Suffolk Police website confirms now that the cyclist has been identified:

"A further potential witness has been traced as the investigation into the disappearance of Corrie McKeague continues.

Police have identified the cyclist shown in recently released CCTV images – but are renewing appeals for any information to locate the two remaining individuals seen on foot in the area where Corrie was last seen who have not yet been positively identified – an older gentleman and a person seen walking through the Brentgovel Street/ ‘horseshoe’ area of Bury St Edmunds around 5.15am – 5.20am on Saturday 24 September."


Also says near the bottom:

"Police have also been reviewing data that has now been provided by a private company employed by Nicola Urquhart to see if this can provide any further information to assist the investigation."


And the landfill search has been delayed:

"“The work to trace Corrie remains a priority and we are continuing to progress our investigation as the work around the site search is being planned. It was initially hoped that the search could start next week, but the logistics of building access routes and ensuring the area is safely accessible for those who will be carrying out the work mean further preparatory activity will need to be done first.

“This is a considerable task and we need to ensure everything is in place before officers begin the process of going through the waste in the landfill. We have been liaising with Corrie’s family around the timescales involved and, while we can’t confirm a start date, this preliminary work will be completed as quickly as possible, so the full scale search can take place."

Who the **** knows? Presumably just no entry and old woman unless they are all the same person jmo.

Eta did the reward maybe get claimed by the cyclist or the taxi driver? Looks like this case began with a bike and may end with one also imo.

Seems strange they only just come forward and the reward ends tomorrow.

Who is this person then I'm confused, I thought this was the person near the bus station,

 

[Taskforce88]

Interesting that it took so long for the cyclist to be identified.

Even more interesting that the cyclist did not come forward sooner.

Indeed!

Police knew who he was and were waiting on an informer to put him in the taxi image (car occupants)? I wonder how many phone calls the police had to answer in regards to the cyclists identity?

I hope they've delayed the search because the bike man is "helping them with their inquiries" and they're just using site preparation as an excuse.

Yes I think it is that person seen walking past Cornhill cam at 5.18 and in the bus station car park too.

"Police have traced a potential witness seen in the area where Corrie McKeague vanished as officers prepare to search a landfill site for the missing RAF airman.

The 23-year-old disappeared after partying with friends in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, on September 24 last year, and hasn't been seen or heard from since."

Well let's hope they have got over their collective amnesia during the last five months.

I can't see that it says the cyclist came forward, I think someone identified them but still interesting that they've waited until now to do it.

I don't think this is connected to the reward, I don't think it would be paid for simply giving a name

The terms for claiming the reward are pretty clear and no you wouldn't be paid for giving a name. It's likely names were put forward for the cyclist, multiple names could have been put forward of course.

Sorry I worded it wrongly. I wasn't suggesting that they came forward, only saying its interesting that they have not come forward voluntary, as if they were 'hiding'.
