Lifeboat crews recovered Libby's body
Drew Baxter is part of the RNLI crew at Humber Lifeboat.
He said they were called out to a report that a body had been spotted in the water.
He said: “We were commencing our search. The tides were coming in. When we arrived we commenced a search of the area. Within five minutes we received a further radio message that another boat had a visual.
“We found the Cleethorpes RNLI lifeboat on the scene. We pulled alongside the body in the water. I set about organising the crew.
“I was stood in the recovery well and I noticed three or four earrings and a gold necklace around the neck. I could see a black sports bra and that was it on the top of the body,a skirt and black and white trainers. We made our way to Grimsby docks.”
Jamie White was also on duty with the RNLI.
He said: “On arrival in Grimsby I stopped with the casualty until the police arrived. We were asked to unzip the pouch and I could see a necklace with the letter ‘L’ on.”
