Found Deceased UK - William "Bill" Taylor, 70, Gosmore, Hertfordshire, 3 June 2018

[Tortoise]

Wow, thanks Yaya.

Police have been busy piecing this together behind the scenes! Kent is such an unlikely connection, but I'm gathering he has been charged with the conspiracy and assisting an offender and not actual murder. I wonder why they would involve more people in their plan.

Also wondering if this will put back the trial timetable so that they can all be tried together.

Gwyn Griffiths – of Lucy Avenue in Folkestone, Kent – appeared via video link at Hatfield Magistrates’ Court yesterday [29 Jan] and did not enter a plea.

The 59-year-old’s next court appearance is set to be on Monday, March 4, when his pre-trial hearing will take place at St Albans Crown Court.

William Taylor: Folkestone man remanded in custody after conspiracy to murder charge

 

[Tortoise]

Right I've found a connection - he is co directors with Paul Cannon (co-accused) at a company called MPG Landcraft Ltd

MPG LANDCRAFT LTD - Officers (free information from Companies House)

 

[Tortoise]

So far I've been able to establish that there are connections with environmental waste companies.

 

[Tortoise]

Paul Cannon was also director of this company (which is in liquidation) until he resigned on 23 April 2018.

THE ANSTEY QUARRY COMPANY LIMITED - Overview (free company information from Companies House)

Quite a lot to glean from looking into the officers involved in both those companies - just noticing the common theme of waste management, quarrying, haulage and some other very recent news reports of illegal waste disposal concerning a company with loose connections to Paul Cannon.

Hitchin haulage company fined more than £500,000 for illegal Royston waste storage

No suggestion or implication that the third director of MPG or any of the officers of the haulage company are involved.

Thanks for the updates Ya Ya

 

[Alyce]

Yep - waste management - says it all really.

I think they may be fast tracking GG for the April date - hope he doesnt create a delay

NP. You're very welcome.

Just thinking about that - maybe it was not intentional on GGs part - but perhaps PC asked GG to give him an alibi - the usual line about ...... I had nothing to do with it mate, but you know what the police are like, they'll point the finger at me........ and GG obliges, because he doesn't think his business partner had anything to do with it.

Or maybe they realised that disposal is not as easy as they thought it would be and had, of necessity, to call in GG to help them.

At last - police have found a body believed to be Bill Taylor.

Body found in missing farmer search

A body has been found in the search for a multi-millionaire farmer who has been missing for more than eight months.

William "Bill" Taylor was last seen at home at Gosmore, near Hitchin, Hertfordshire, on 3 June.

Officers said the body, which was found in the River Hiz by a member of the public, had not yet been formally identified.

Mr Taylor's estranged wife Angela, 52, and her partner, Paul Cannon, 53, have pleaded not guilty to his murder.

 

[bluebird69]

That is encouraging. Bill is clearly not still alive, so I hope this is him in order for justice to be achieved for both him and his family.

 

[Alyce]

Oh goodness, I do hope it's him - which sounds awful - but rather they have found him than for the family never to know.

The River Hiz is a small tributary river that feeds the River Ivel that, in turn, feeds the River Great Ouse. Starting at its source of a chalk fed spring just south of the village of Charlton, the river winds its way through the county of Hertfordshire, moving its way into and through Hitchin, where it meets the River Oughton and River Purwell. The Hiz finally meets the River Ivel near the village of Henlow.

So how far in distance along the river from AT's property? Also anyone remember how long she has been detained?

Sorry, very lazy of me - I shall look up the answers myself later.

 

[Alyce]

[Alyce]

Have a look at the link above Jessie - the River Hiz runs alongside Mill House Farm - ATs home ( or was I suppose ! )

Not sure what your question means jessie. They are both in custody awaiting trial, is that what you're asking?

 

[Alyce]

Cropped it a bit to show the farm and river - sorry havent turned it right way up !
