Lolly's True Crime World

  Missing For Almost 30 Years 23-year-old Steven left home for a walk in 1992, he never returned Steven popped into the public toilets on the promenade in Saltburn, North Yorkshire at approximately 3 pm on December 28th 1992, whilst out on a walk with his mother, he was never seen again. His mother had also gone into the ladies' toilets and having then waited a while outside she assumed her son had left. She had headed home, expecting to find her son there waiting, but he never arrived. Having reached home and found her son to be missing and knowing that he was vulnerable with learning difficulties, the alarm was raised and the police called. Unfortunately, the police considered Steven to be an adult and therefore advised Mr and Mrs Clark to wait for seventy-two hours to see if their son came home of his own accord. Steven Clark and his parents lived in the town of Marske-by-the-sea, near Redcar, North Yorkshire, England and on December 28th 1992 he had been to the Rathbone Society

  Was Claire Tiltman's Real Killer Convicted? 16-year-old Claire was murdered on January 18th 1993 Claire Tiltman's murder investigation was not completed until some twenty-one years after she was killed. On December 12th 2014 Colin Ash-Smith was convicted of her murder, based on circumstantial evidence and previous bad character reference only, not a scrap of physical evidence exists to indicate that he was in fact the killer.  The question here is, was the right man convicted of the murder of 16-year-old Claire Tiltman or was it indeed someone else? Let's have a delve into the case and draw our own conclusion. Claire Tiltman was murdered, just four days after her 16th birthday on January 18th 1993 in a town called Greenhithe, in Kent, England.  S he was 16-years-old and a pupil at Dartford Grammar School for Girls. She made a short cut on her way to a friend's house to study and was brutally murdered by being stabbed at least forty times in a vicious and frenzied atta

The Unsolved Murders of Three Women Are To Be Reviewed Vicky Glass, Rachel Wilson and Donna Keogh all disappeared between 1998 and 2002  These three young women all went missing from Middlesborough, England in unexplained circumstances. The bodies of Rachel Wilson and Vicky glass were later found but Donna Keogh remains a missing person. There has never been an identified link officially established between the three disappearances but, it does seem likely that there is possibly a connection, all three cases have been treated as murder. Assistant Chief Constable of Cleveland police, Jason Harwin said "There is a commonality between the cases through the ages and sex of the victims and all being linked geographically to Middlesborough". He did not elaborate as to whether he considers any further link such as the same perpetrator. Cleveland police have launched an in-depth review in which all three cases will be thoroughly re-investigated. The force has been granted 3.77 millio

  Where is Kevin Parle - Manhunt Wanted in connection with two gruesome murders A few months ago I was shopping with Jarad Adams when we came across a book called "Manhunt", written by former Scotland Yard detective Peter Bleksley and we decided to follow the case. 39-year-old Kevin Parle from Mossley Hill, Liverpool has been a wanted man for at least sixteen years having allegedly taken the lives of a twenty-two-year-old mother of three Lucy Hargreaves and a sixteen-year-old boy Liam Kelly, as well as burning down a house putting a young family in grave danger. It certainly seems that he is pretty good at running away and hiding and staying just a couple of steps ahead of the authorities.  There have been reports of him being as far away as Spain, Thailand and Dubai and much closer to home in Manchester, England. It seems that Merseyside Police have certainly not done too well in their investigations or in pursuing the fugitive otherwise he would not be blatantly waving to t
