Found Deceased UK - Libby Squire, 21, last seen outside Welly club, Hull, 31 Jan 2019 #12 *ARREST*

We have a young girl missing local to me too, which some of us have been looking into. Leah Croucher - if anyone wants to help.

There is indeed much help needed on Leah's case...with virtually no leads that anyone knows of.

Just saw the news on the Daily Mail. Is this just within last hour or so? Any confirmation? I know many of us thought this might be where she would be found...

I believe it was this afternoon, so it's been kept quiet for a few hours.

I'm just catching up with this thread now. My heart is sinking.

 

[Sally4x]

Someone on here said on Sunday they thought there would be a breakthrough this week...

Yes I have been thinking about that as well.

 

[JosieJo]

It seems very likely it's her..so very sad ...I hope there will be enough evidence remaining to get her justice after all this time but it's very worrying

 

[Vermont24]

Yes I have been thinking about that as well.

That was @TheCasual

 

[ly502]

Have they named her specifically like this in any other “findings” on daily mail? Heartbroken if it’s her, but hope the family can find a bit of solace and peace of mind in having the answer to this particular question.

I am fairly certain that they have not. Which is why I think many of us feel sad and sick...

 

[Ryuk]

Just thinking. There is the possibility that the body could that of one of the two recent Humber Bridge jumpers that have yet to be found.

Tomorrow there should be some news i think one way or the other

if it is her and she was thrown into the river/fell into the river fully dressed then her parents/police would be able to identify her fairly easily

 

[MsMiniSleuth]

Every news report is linking LS with the body found.

 

[ly502]

Sad no matter what...but I never realized how attached I would grow to the people I read about on here. I feel sick like I did on 9/11

I did a decomposed body (in water) google search and unfortunately I doubt the parents would be able to identify her by sight. I think they will be relying on her dental records/DNA.

 

[ly502]

Signing off for the night to drive home... I feel like I know you all. Stay safe this evening, and hopefully we can rest easier knowing that some family may find some peace from this.

Oh no that’s so horrendous her poor family or someone else’s poor family

 

[THEmittens]

In a way I hope this is Libby, as horrendous as that thought is, just so she can now rest in peace and her family and friends can have some sort of closure. I also hope whoever did this receives swift and harsh justice. Am very sad for all the family, what an absolute waste of a lovely young life.

 

[BrianJohnson]

I think deep down everyone in this thread was expecting the worst case scenario, i would be surprised if anyone was expecting her to be found alive after so many weeks, I certainly wasn’t, thoughts are with her family tonight

It definitely restores all our faith in human nature that as fickle as modern life is becoming many people like all of us here genuinely care about people and want proper justice in the world

I feel sick... if it’s her then at least it’s some sort of closure for her poor family. If not then god bless the family of the poor soul

Closure that then opens the door to an absolute Tsunami of other questions and emotions

Agree. Never bought this idea of her being trafficked or kept alive somewhere; just didn't fit. What needs to be established is whether accident or foul play.

Cold water also encourages the formation of adipocere. This is a waxy, soapy substance formed from the fat in the body that partially protects the body against decomposition. Bodies have been (but not always) retrieved mostly intact from waters below 7°C after several weeks, Still, trust me, it's not something pleasant to see but it makes recognition easier.

yeah thanks for giving me the idea to search for that! But seriously, those google pics are mostly from warm water, hopefully the cold humber will have preserved the body better.
