So there's a team of dozens on this? Ahem, I know its sad but I'm sure some of those officers could be more usefully deployed elsewhere? Or is just the media pressure that's driving this?
Are you for real? A possible murder enquiry and they would be better deployed ‘elsewhere’?So there's a team of dozens on this? Ahem, I know its sad but I'm sure some of those officers could be more usefully deployed elsewhere? Or is just the media pressure that's driving this?

There are other actual crimes going on. I'm not sure this warrants literally dozens of cops being pulled off other duties. Sorry to sound so cold. I hope they find her. But the police are massively short-staffed and they've spent many many hours on this.
Not sure that the press being interested in a story in Lancashire alters the policing situation with the Met in East London.Well yeh. Maybe it's coz of where I live in east London but we have quite a lot of murders/missing people, not enough cops, and every missing person definitely doesn't get this level of attention from the media, the cops and the public.

Case closed.I don't think I'd be able to do a TV interview if my wife was missing...

About 7,000 other people have gone missing since NB did.
also if it's a loan lunatic serial killer type then he needs to be caught quick sharp, there's a public safety angle of course. but i get what you're saying too.Well yeh.

never quite understood this race to the bottom logic - they weren't investigated therefore, she shouldn't be investigated. ideally they should all be investigated?Any in similar circumstances to NB? What's your point?

Report them and ask for the content to be expungedIt does make me want to delete all my posts on the thread, but they’re past the time limit for editing.
Really? Make threads unreadable because folk who engaged had retrospective doubts?Report them and ask for the content to be expunged
I wouldn’t want my own unease at my own behaviour to inconvenience any mods. Sometimes you just have to take the the consequences like an adult.Report them and ask for the content to be expunged
In one way, sure, but in others... not so sure.That's a hugely misleading statistic. The vast majority of those turn up very quickly (usually within 24 hours or so), or they have good explanations about why they have gone; from care, previous running away, MH issues; or they leave a trail that can explains why they went, etc etc.
Very, very few vanish in these circumstances or anything like them.
But the NB police have looked everywhere they can (without sp[ending absurd levels of resources), so they're all in a pretty similar situation now.
should be relatively quick job to eliminate the tatty red van as a vehicle of interest given all the CCTV there seems to be in the areaWhat are you basing this on?
Also, what level of resource spend becomes absurd?
