It was only when Miss Yeates' body was found on Christmas Day
He must have missed the nationwide appeal for the missing woman who lived nearby that had been going on for few days  |

By:
If that's true about the GF I would say their relationship may come under strain - nothing that can't be fixed though.

Girl goes missing who lives in a large house containing several flats.
All evidence points to her being taken from her flat. Plod pull landlord (also a resident) and pull flat to pieces but don't bother to look in the adjoining flat for several weeks. Did they even ask who lived there....oh yes a young couple, the male is an architect (direct link to missing girl) and he may have recently split with his girlfriend. OK then so where is he....oh he left the country not long after girl went missing. Leave him in Holland...he'' come back when he's ready !! FFS the plod may or may not have their man but can't believe it's via their good detective work |

By:
Agreed Rothstein, as I have said above somewhere.
If they have got the right man this time, and they knew all along, I would hope that he has been under constant undercover surveillance since the case began, whether here or in Holland. Plod said no specific increased threat to public.... well does this guy's gf count as a member of the public, or the girl that's let him stay in her flat, or the other female occupants of the house where the flat was, or any females around wherever he was in Holland, or his female workmates, or any other females on any sites he may have worked at, or his facebook chums or erm.... anyone else who knows him, or anyone else who didn't know that they knew him? |

ffs he must have done it. Lock him up and throw away the key now |
|
By:
Clouseau...as much as it makes no sense to let him roam around (even if he was on 24 hour watch), forensic evidence needs to be collected ASAP and they only started sniffing round the back of his flat when he was arrested.
CLUELESS and have probably/possibly got lucky. |

bit of hover hand going on to

By:
do we have an extradition treaty with Holland ?
|
|
By:
It's in the EU so no different than if he'd stayed over here
|
|
By:
women scream and shout about the way they are treated and here possibly we have one who keeps stum about her BF for 4 weeks, hope they throw the book at her, they,ll have to charge him now because if they release him hopefully he,ll beat the living daylights out of her
|
|
By:
why do you assume she would have known
|
|
By:
Does the deadline for holding him expire at 7pm tonight?
|
|
By:
based on reports that says she was compelled to come forward by the parents appeal,like everyone else just speculating on media reports
|
|
By:
Think so Nirvana, so they have to charge him, release him or ask for more time.
|
|
By:
if it turns out to be true and that she had suspicions early on or even helped in some way;
shes put women in the area in danger watched a 65 yr old man have his life yurned upside down watched the family and friends go through turmoil for a month and most of all put herself in danger as with all the threads on here hold me hands up again if he and she are not involved |
|
By:
Regards the GF of the arrested man:
-you would have to think she wasn't around on the night/weekend in question; -he was due to go abroad on the 19th Dec and not due back until 5th Jan (I think); so she probably wasn't with him for at least the first couple of weeks of the enquiry. |
|
By:
Cheers squares. Not sure if it was 6pm or 7pm. Got a feeling they'll ask for more time to question him.
|
|
By:
1st time poster , your speculation does involve 7 0r 8 Ifs , rather than the 2 or 3 normally required for posts on this thread [smiley:crazy]
|
|
By:
so your saying its nothing to do with families appeal she just didnt no.i.m commenting on newspaper reports
|
|
By:
There were some quite specific things mentioned in that appeal (almost as if appealing to someone in particular) and if, indeed it was the GF who made contact, something said in the appeal could have struck a chord.
|
|
By:
Maybe she just wanted him out of the flat so that she could collect her stuff
 |
|
By:
Sadly, he sound of a screaming woman no longer merits the attention it once did. Many young women seem to think that it is normal behaviour, especially at weekends. The only thing that would attract attention would be the words "Help me"! But it wasn't enough to cause the neighbour to investigate thoroughly and it's unlikely the polce would have been interested.

By:
just live on sky now,, Brunt says they have till 7pm and nothing has been said yet but he assumes thy knwo what they are going to do as they wouldnt wait right up until 7 before making a decision
|
|
By:
I wonder if he paniced after the screams, killed her and grabbed the pizza on his way out the flat to make it look like he had a reason to be there. Then came back a few hours later when he realised nobody was investigating the screams
|
|
By:
there's been no reference to him having access to a vehicle yet so how has he moved the body havnt seen any cars been taken away
|
|
By:
first thing they would do would try and find how he moved here. Its a big hole if they cant pin point it
|
|
By:
*moved her
|
|
By:
30 mins left. What price he will be charged now? 1.5 ???
|
|
By:
I will have a tenner on him being bailed.
|
|
By:
I think BBC reporter said initially that they can hold him until Monday morning. I assume that includes all possible extensions.
|
|
By:
another extension must be favourite would lay baled at 7pm
|
|
By:
Surely they can only be waiting on DNA tests to help rule him in or out.

He is going to miss Take Me Out
|
|
By:
and the lottery
|
|
By:
think we would have heard if they were goign to release him
|
|
By:
If they tell him the British Comedy Awards is on at 9 he might confess.
|
|
By:
Gonna be gutted when he logs on to facebook. 52 friends now, and his farm's gonna be fecked.
|
|
By:
Why do they keep arresting folk and then having to hold them right up to the limit?
Gather the evidence and then arrest and charge the suspect. If they don't have anything to charge him with why arrest him rather than waiting till they do >? |
|
By:
If they took swabs for DNA samples when they arrested him, how long would it take for those results to come back?
