  Luke Mitchell Innocent After All? Jodi Jones was just fourteen when she was viciously murdered This case has recently come back into the news after a UK television station, Channel five broadcast a rather controversial documentary mini-series reviewing the case from 2003.  The documentary "Murder in a small town" claims that it is physically impossible for Luke Mitchell to have committed the murder and that has to say the least sparked some serious controversy.  Let me just make it absolutely clear that we are in no way injustice campaigners, neither are we following a particular line of belief here. We merely delight in seeing the truth told and justice served. So to the case in question: 14-year-old Jodi Jones was brutally murdered on June 30th 2003 in Easthouses, Dalkeith, Scotland. Her badly mutilated body was discovered around 10.30pm in some woodland area, behind a high wall quite close to her home. She had been stripped, bound, suffered multiple stab wounds and almos

  Unsolved Murder at RAF Halton 1967 !9-year-old Rita Ellis murdered on 11th November 1967 Rita Ellis was serving in the Women's Royal Air Force based at RAF Halton, between the towns of Tring and Wendover in Buckinghamshire, England when she was found dead by a dog walker early on Sunday morning 12th November 1967.  She joined the RAF in April 1967 and completed her initial training at RAF Spittlegate in Grantham, Lincolnshire before being stationed at Halton in June 1967.  Her body, naked from the waist down, was found covered by leaves at Rawbourgh Copse, part of the military installation. She had been sexually assaulted, suffered a great deal of bruising to her body and face and strangled with her own underwear, which of course makes the killing sexually motivated. Buckinghamshire police took up the initial investigation but, it was soon taken control of by New Scotland Yard.  There had been two big functions on the base on the night of November 11th 1967, one was a bingo night

  Suzy Lamplugh - Time For The Truth Estate agent Suzy Lamplugh vanished after leaving her office on July 28th 1986 Welcome back to my study of the case of missing Suzy Lamplugh, who disappeared after leaving the estate agency where she worked in Fulham, London. Despite huge searches and the passing of time no trace of her has ever been found. Over the past weeks, my team and I have begun to really look carefully at the whole story from scratch, identify the failings of the enquiries that have spanned the years and try to make sense of the case. Before I go any further I want to say that I feel this case has long since ceased to be about getting justice for Suzy and her family and has become a free-for-all by authors of books, desperate to sell their stories and people worried about the truth coming to the surface so they work doubly hard to put one name in the frame and keep a man in prison, in hope that will suffice. That just makes me angry and disappointed, a twenty-five-year-old w

  Teenage Girl Who Simply Vanished 19-year-old Leah Croucher simply vanished whilst on her way to work The morning of February 15th 2019 in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, UK, should have been just an average working day, but for one family that sadly was not the case. Leah Croucher set off to make a two-mile walk to work, as usual, and was indeed spotted on CCTV on her normal route walking through an area of Milton Keynes known as Furzton, on Buzzacott Lane at 0816. This was to be the last 'confirmed' sighting of the teenager. Witnesses also claimed to have seen Leah on Tellytubby Hill at around 0820 and it is assumed that she would then have either followed  and her mobile telephone appears to have been switched off at 0834 and has never been located. Now interestingly, during the evening of 14th February 2019, Leah's mobile telephone locator was manually switched off on the handset, presumably by her. Why did she turn the locator off? We may never know. Leah walking to w
