UK UK - Suzy Lamplugh, 25, Fulham, 28 July 1986 #8

[Lady Stoddart-West]

DV has no evidence, credible or otherwise, to support his theory. He has nothing further to add to that which is in his book.

What about his apparent dossier of exhibits etc & seeming expectation of arrest/s? Presumably he’d know the threshold. Not defending him or doubting you but find it really extraordinary & baffling if he really only had what was in book. Why the seeming ‘certainty’ on her not having left pub, etc? You can have a suspicion or a hunch but certainty?

What i would like to know is how come the most obvious line of enquiry which is the pow has never been extensively checked to rule it out. How difficult is it to check the rear garden area and railway embankment area as far as the overgrown viaduct. We know fact the pow had sl personal items, we know fact she spoke to pow about getting her items back and just because they said sl never went there it is covered up and forgotten about. 37 sr has produced absolutely zero results in over 40 years and the same with jc no answers or proof of any kind in the same time. Yet sl and her family get no justice for some strange reason pow is seen as a no go. Maybe police funding or such like i know not….

SL never picked up her lost items from the POW at 6PM. DCS carter and the lamplugh squad did not search the POW because she never got there. i do think it still should have been searched 1 yr later when KH started telling porkies.

so DV has his own case file, but he also does not really know what happened to suzy. it could have been an accident he said in a recent interview, which floored me. DV is convinced SL is buried in the POW, but he also does not know what happened to SL on the 28/7/1986. he clearly has not got a clue.

He did say “everything I can currently put into the public domain about the case is in my book” in 2021 - perhaps implying he does have more evidence than he can share (?) & added “She will be found” in 2025.

It's an extraordinarily long time to wait given that they actually knew each other, were friendly and worked together on house transactions. She must have been more than aware of SL's disappearance given the massive TV and radio publicity given to the case. So why wait the best part of a week before reporting her sighting? Put yourself in her shoes. Would you have let so much time slip by were it your friend with time clearly of the utmost essence? Something isn't right about her evidence.

now its 2026.

now its 2026.

To clarify he wrote the comment in 2025 (didn’t claim she’d be found in 2025).
