Chris Jeffries was arrested on suspicion of murder - and IIRC his detention was extended.
Just sayin, like.

DavidUK said: Maybe your right, who knows?
I'm just starting to get a little uncomfortable with this now just as I was with the Joanna Yates case when nearly everyone thought they had the right man and I was one of the few who didn't, based simply on that it didn't make sense. This also doesn't make sense on several levels, the main one being that if Bridger did it how could he even hope to get away with it as all reported 'suspicious movements' of his were conducted in broad daylight? If he did it then was certainly wasn't trying to be careful and yet there appears to be very little, if any, solid evidence. One of the few? Most intelligent non-daily mail readers knew there was likely some doubt, no clear evidence, trial by media etc. Similar situation here. Very sad situation but media found him guilty before any facts are known. He might be guilty, it might be an accident etc

dfen5 said: In cases like this I don't see why they don't pump the suspects full of truth drugs and see what they say. If it might mean finding the victin alive (if time allows) or even dead, it's got to be worth a go. If nothing is right, what difference would it make to a trial?
The girl looked so happy in the pictures. Truly heart breaking to think someone may have taken her life. Because we live in a democracy? And truth drugs might have as many false positives as true positives. The brain is a complex place... But yes, it is appalling, I'm just not sure how far injecting truth drugs into suspects takes us...

There's no such thing as a truth drug - all depends what you believe to be true in any case!

There have been many high profile cases recently where the police have repeatedly sought extra time to question suspects, but - and I am sure someone with experience of working in this area will correct me if I'm wrong - as I understand it, once they charge someone they can't question him any further? I can understand that they would want to get as much out of him as possible while they still can

It seems strange to me that the investigation is progressing so slowly. From the manner in which the searches are being carried out, the police still don't seem to have any information to work with.
I can only conclude that either Bridger is refusing to say anything or he does not know anything. It will be interesting to see whether he is charged or released later today.

It certainly suggests they don't have any really damning evidence against him. If he doesn't get charged then this story gets a lot stranger.

Though he will then probably be taken somewhere for his own protection/safety? After all, he's been tried and convicted in the eyes of the general public. Either way, his life will never be the same again.

1. Helping the police with their enquiries.
This is an informal discussion with the police. If you become a suspect you will be given the police caution (see below) so that what you say afterwards can be used as evidence. You may also be arrested.
The caution means that you do not have to answer any questions, you can have a solicitor present and the interview will be recorded. You can remain silent or say 'no comment' if you want.
You are free to leave at any time unless the police arrest you.
2. Arrest
If you are arrested, the police have formed a "reasonable suspicion" that you are responsible for the crime and the next stage for them is to secure evidence by questioning. You have the right to have a solicitor present and advise you whether to answer questions. Note: if you are arrested without such reasonable suspicion you can claim compensation for wrongful arrest.
The police caution will be given, "You do not have to say anything. However, it may harm your defence if you do not mention when questioned something which you later rely on in court. Anything you do say may be given in evidence."
Normally you must be charged within 24 hours after arrest or released, but if you are suspected of a serious crime (e.g. murder), this can be extended to 36 hours by a police superintendent or to 96 hours by a court.
After this time, the police must either charge you or release you.
3. Charge
Once charged with a crime you are probably going to court. That doesn't necessarily mean you are locked up straight away as the police can let you go home on "police bail". A common situation for police bail might be someone charged with a serious motoring offence.
If the Crown Prosecution Service later decides not to proceed with the case, charges can be withdrawn and you will have a clean record.
After you have been charged there will be no further police questioning. (Unless you are a terrorist)

Pure speculation of course. It's all very odd. For f  ks sake!  That has to be the most moronic comment on this, or any, thread ever.

Ozzie Osmond said: After you have been charged there will be no further police questioning. (Unless you are a terrorist) So the police are no longer actually questioning the suspect in custody ? If that is the case then I suspect they have got as much as they are likely to get from him and have either charged him because they believe him to be responsible, or they need extra time to find evidence or just to keep him away from the rest of the world, some of whom appear to have gone quite mad with some form of red mist. If he is guilty of some wrongdoing, either direct or accidental then the trial is going to be interesting, the media and social networks have been in overdrive. A fair trial might be tricky unless you bus in a load of Amish jurors.
