Very sad and she never saw her son found.

Do you think he will ever be found?

Is it finally time for a concerted effort is made to find him?

Thoughts.

I think it is disgusting that fking scumbag never let this poor woman put her child to rest. It is scum like him that makes me think that sometimes slow death as a punishment merits thought. Imagine having to live all those years knowing your child is dead and buried somewhere. Only to die of cancer before you find out while that bd still lives.

Very sad news indeed.

It's times like these you wish there really was a nice place to go after we die, so that she and her son can be together.

I'd say no.

Mainly for the reason that peat bogs aren't static - so if the police were given an exact location for when he was buried, odds are the body would have shifted - would take some finding.

I suppose some things are just best left. Now his mother is dead, would there be any real benefit in finding the body?

How can i be succinct about this? I'll have a go...


Someone needs to sit in a room with this fking and point out any twisted currency or power he feels he has, has just been extinguished and that he should enjoy the rest of his stay as he's just guaranteed it's going to be a fking long one.

fking maggot.

Having thought about this for decades, you do have to ask yourself whether he hasn't been found simply because if it's difficulty.
Aren't we at a time where anything is possible with enough time and manpower.
I'd get my wellies on and help.

You have to put youself in the family's position. If he was my son or uncle, I'd want him found.

A brave and determined woman, I hope she is now reunited with her son.

May she now find the peace that Brady would not grant her.

I'll not add what I hope awaits Brady, this should be a RIP thread.

I normally am accused of being far to liberal in such matters, but in this case, where there is no doubt whatsoever that he did it and has and is continuing to make the family suffer, I have trouble coming up with a rational reason not to make his existence as miserable as possible for as long as it takes to find the body. I'm sure 20 years in a cell with a flickering light, random temperature changes and random loud noises - knowing that he could have a normal cell if the body was found - would have eleicited the information. And if not it would have been bloody horrible for him - so it's a win-win.

The OH suggested that there would be a danger as being as bad as the criminals, but there is little danger of that in Prisoner A's case.

What you've missed is that we are not a third world nation.

RIP Winnie, would have been nice had you been able to bury your son. frown

And sink to the same level as Brady? He hasn't even been convicted of Keith Johnsons murder. The CPS refused to prosecute him for it. It's all very sad but the police have already spent enormous resources looking for the remains. Those resources are far better spent looking after the living rather than someone who was murdered 42 years ago.
