  5. Pure speculation but her friend was murdered, it’s possible she met the same fate by the same hands if she was trying to help her friend get away from her abuser.

    Obviously that’s just a wild theory. Anything could have happened, mental health crisis and just wandered off, anything. Mystery.

  6. >A hidden loft in the home of missing chef Claudia Lawrence was never searched by police, her grieving mother has claimed. 

    >Her mother Joan Lawrence, 81, said she had ‘absolutely no idea’ the secret loft existed until she visited recently with a podcast crew, the Mirror first reported.

    >Although she wants the new area to be searched after the bombshell revelation, she said she doesn’t want police inside the property as she has ‘lost all faith and trust in them’.

    >She has vowed ‘never’ to give North Yorkshire Police the keys to Claudia’s home saying the last time officers searched the property they left it a ‘mess’.

    If it’s hidden and therefore the police don’t know about it how does she expect them to have searched it? She wants it searched but won’t let the police search it.

    I’m sorry but it sounds like with the trauma of everything that has happened she has started to lose her faculties.

  7. Hidden loft so well hidden, police couldn’t find it.
    Police could now search it, but won’t be allowed access ( not that this would stop them).
    Hmmm.

  8. I listened to a podcast the other day and her mum said that they only put an inspection camera in the loft.

  10. Another day, another self-posted “newspaper” non-news story.

  11. It’s not really hidden is it, that’s where lots of loft entrances are. If the police did not look, well….what can you say other than incompetence.

  12. Since she vanished on her way to work at the University, and was seen?
