Really weird. Can only guess he could’ve been camped or bivvied up on one of the hills surrounding the res. They are so vast and desolate that you’d think properly searching them would be virtual impossible.
I don’t really understand how the police have immediately discounted that he went to the res with someone
No car, no bike found, nearest bust stop is a 4 hour walk away
Most likely explanation is he went there with someone and that someone left
I’m not saying that someone murdered him, could be this dude got into trouble and the other person panicked and drove off.
Finally a case worthy of hinterland and it’s largely ignored.
I’m about 3 miles from this and it’s utterly bizarre. The farm at the top is about a 2 hour drive from the dam because of the state of the road. It’s single rubble track with few places to pass.
It all makes little sense of someone got there in a wet suit. All I can think of is that there will be a bike and a backpack somewhere in some undergrowth.
I wonder if he went there on a motorbike, died while swimming, then someone nicked the abandoned motorbike after having clocked it a few times. Could be a single divorcee early retired with no ties, what little family he has left he never gets in touch with and the last they heard of him, via other people, was he was off on his bike travelling.
The corpse had been in the water since July they estimate. Enjoy your water Birmingham.

Never heard of this case!
