The Police have confirmed that?

If so,could you link to the source,thanks.

The Police haven't said they have found anything whatsoever.

I doubt the Police would deny or confirm either way,certain things are never publicly declared until a trial,should one go ahead.

Listening to the news this evening,it was said that one of the reasons that Bridger had been arrested for suspicion of murder, was because of forensic evidence gained,however where that evidence came from was not disclosed.
It could well have came from the landrover.

Here's some news for you. The police will not be sharing every single scrap and fact of the investigation with Joe Q.

Possibily, but if they had found something I would think they would have disclosed it. In the absence of this it's safer to assume they haven't found anything than the other way around.

Why would the police disclose any evidence? The only people the police should disclose any evidence to is perhaps her family and to the cps.

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.

That they have had to apply for several extentions to his detention would SUGGEST they don't have solid evidence otherwise they would have charged him earlier, and yet they still haven't charged him.

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.

Why stop there? Why not water board them as well?

Chris Jeffries was arrested on suspicion of murder - and IIRC his detention was extended.

Just sayin, like.

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

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...

[Rollcage]

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

Wow, just wow. I really despair at some of the inhabitants of this country.

That page disgusts me - pea brained morons. Lets see what happens over the next few days but above all it would be amazing if they found the poor little girl safe and alive.

Just report the page to Facebook admin, like I have just done. Hopefully with enough complaints they'll take it down

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

[anonymous-user]

Innocent until proven guilty & all that. There may be some unexpected twists & turns...

[Grenoble]

Charge or release by 5pm?

[Seti]

Even better;

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.
