Thanks very much @Tortoise and @lollipop63 for finding this. Bizarre how difficult it's been to find this information all this time, when it was there in MSM all along.

Coldingley is in Bisley, near Woking (about 70 miles/1.5 hours from MK) so although it's technically just possible for JMcC to have travelled from there to the MK area in time for Leah's morning walk, my feeling is that it's vastly less likely than feared when we were speculating that he might have been at Woodhill. I think it was a reasonable line of enquiry but for me it's pretty much been ruled out now.

There's nothing whatsoever to suggest that.
This is the article which states that she feared for her life. Milton Keynes woman denies leaving her three dogs to starve to death in her seven-bedroom house
Quote 'She claims she had to leave her farmhouse suddenly in February because she feared for her life after being attacked by people with a vendetta against her'.

There is nothing to suggest JMCC was the person she feared and as I stated previously just my thoughts on the matter. This was with the assumption that he had left Woodhill Prison and may have had some shady local contacts but this has since been ruled out.

Isn't that what I just said? (the bolded sentence)
You seem rather confused.

I'm confused... I was never that convinced of the link between Leah and Eaton Bray - but why would there be a link between JMcC and Eaton Bray? Because there was said to be GRT community nearby and he has Traveller heritage? There are GRT communities everywhere, and people with GRT heritage everywhere. It's a real stretch imo.

If there's some other reason to suppose a link, it would be good to hear what it is, with sources. I feel this may be yet another excursion into what's being said on the fb group, which - among other things - is jam packed with ethnic stereotyping. Please let's not stoop to that level here.

Thanks, well found! Sorry to be tedious, but what's the source for that? It would certainly seem to rule out any likelihood of his involvement in Leah's disappearance (assuming "this year" relates to something that was written in 2019).

Cherwell, My apologies, I was thinking your comment mean that there was nothing to suggest the lady was fleeing for her life which is why I then quoted the newspaper article.
Juicy Lucy, there is no other reason I tried to connect JMCC with the Eaton Bray property. My only reasoning was that if he was mixing with bad types he could have ended up there if he stayed local to the area and was released from a local prison. It has now been established that it wasn't HMP Woodhill so I think we can rule him out.

Bad types?

Bad types?
The lady from the property was allegedly fleeing for her life after being attacked by people with a vendetta against her.
They don't sound like nice people to deal with if this is true but I cannot see how JMCC could have had any involvement now we have the facts about where he was in prison so not relevant anymore.

I think it is just vandals or people who don't like fly postering, nothing else. There is a bit of a conspiracy theory going around with locals because someone is writing the number 29 on some of the posters. o_O

Agree, kids off school, behaving like idiots is my guess. What would cutting them down and leaving them there achieve?!
Interested in the comment about locals theory though, I’ve heard nothing, is this coming from the Facebook group do you mean? I’m not a member, just interested where you’ve heard that.

Another sighting reported as new which actually isn’t new and it turns out was investigated somewhat at the time. Again regardless though, good it’s keeping Leah in the press even if only locally

Yes the comments were on the Leah Croucher Disappearance - Community Investigation FB page which is quoted in the newspaper article. Some really odd theories but at least people are interacting.

What would the number 29 signify? Is that part of the mystery or does it refer to something known?

Yes, the news article clearly says that it was reported at the time. And yet they headline it as a "new sighting". :rolleyes:

Is 29 the current age of Mr X?

(I am not in the FB group so don’t know the theories there).

It is part of the mystery as someone keeps writing the number 29 on Leah's missing posters around Milton Keynes.

Apparently 29 is slang/young person speak for being bi sexual. If a=1, b =2 etc up to 9=i then 29 is bi. I'm sure there are more random meanings so who knows what it means. Is it the number or tag of a gang in the area?
 
  • #579
It could refer to the tag number of a gang in MK possibly?

Another theory is that #29 relates to the Netflix series Squid Game, because of this (I think):

The original number 29 is an anonymous guard who’s identity is assumed by detective Joon-ho on the ferry to the Squid Game compound. The police officer is interested in the Squid Game because his brother has gone missing and he believes the two events to be linked.

An official police appeal about the posters being vandalised with the cable ties cut.
https://www.thamesvalley.police.uk/...o-incident-of-criminal-damage--milton-keynes/

“These posters have been placed around Milton Keynes appealing for information into the disappearance of Leah, and so it is a particularly malicious case of criminal damage, and I am keen to hear from anybody who may have any information relating to this.”

I was also reading this and it looks like the posters would have put up with Thames Valley Police permission as they are now appealing for information.
