5 Year old missing in Wales.

[nugnug]

no they havent charged him.

[gordo30]

He wasn't charged just arrested for another offence. This gives the police an easier chance of getting an extention for his detention. I don't think the way things have went in the media he would be safe after release.

[lookout]

no they havent charged him.

No he's not charged yet,but the goal-posts have shifted from abduction to an accusation of murder which in turn gives the police more time,as his time starts all over again ( if you see what I mean )
If the abduction charge had still been in force,he'd have been released. This way,it buys more time.

Thats wrong mate and I certainly don't want to turn this into an arguement as everytime I see her picture its killing me.

They can only arrest someone once, that arrest can be changed to anything as long as the person is not charged. The abduction arrest meant that they could go for an extention based on that arrest and a magistrate requires less to grant the 1st extention. They would need to show specific details as to where their investigation was going and that being backed up by evidence to get a further extention on the initial arrest. It was changed so that they could be granted an extention far more easily but its certain they now feel that she is dead.

Thats why they have called of searchers that are not professionals as they believe their searches will produce a body and they don't want any site disturbed by the public.

This is really terrible and Im feeling very numb and angry at this damn world at the moment.

He will be released at 5pm tonight if they do not get an extention (which they will).

What's bothered me most is the fact that this guys name was given out. This is the WRONG approach to any case.

Its seemed that they had their sights on him very quickly, there must have been something they received that put him on their radar from the off. The press conference and press reports about her medication and conditions for me meant they felt she was alive and were appealing to whoever had her at the time.

They must have felt that the quicker they got everything into context the better as they felt for some reason that they were against the clock. Releasing everything very early was to get as much info in as quickly as possible and I don't feel that they were wrong in doing so as long as they had proper reason and information to base that method on. I still find it strange wh yhe doesn't just hold his hands up to it if he was guilty unless he's trying to protect someone. (just my take on things)

[gordo30]

Its hard as they do not at this point have enough evidence to charge him and with a lot of men on the ground all be it in a relatively short time they still don't know for sure if it was him. This could back fire on them in the end.

Just that I remember what happened over the Joanna Yates case,where that poor guy was immediately named/blamed and his life was on hold for months after the event.

He could carry on denying,whether he's guilty or not. The childs' mother was heard saying that April was okay getting into the vehicle with " them ".Who was " them ".? I didn't know the guy used to live next door to the family.

[gordo30]

Yes there are similarities with the Yates case but the main differance for me is more the way the press reported it that led their readers to judge whether he was guilty or not. This case appears to have been done very much in your face and it seems to me that the press has been used as a tool here and not being allowed to simply imply many things.

I might be wrong here but I didn't think the mother could see the little girl from their house? I always thought that the early witnesses were children unless it was one of the other childrens mothers who saw this happen?

[gordo30]

Who commits this type of offence and then takes their car to the garage to be fixed? this all happened in about 18 hours and most of them would have been during the day.
I believe that April was playing with one of his children that day also.

[nugnug]

and who would abduct a child in front of one of there own children.

and who would abduct a child infront of the childs mum when they knew the childs mum.

[lookout]

The mother and step-grandfather were at a school open day,as well as Bridger himself,he was there with his daughter,and it was a 7 year old girl who saw April getting into the vehicle,and of course it was then that she went missing.

[gordo30]

AH ok I missed the 1st day of this case as I was away and I really should read up a bit more but it is far too distressing.

[lookout]

Obviously we're not being told everything,and you can only guess why the same forensic scientist is on the scene ( the same one who attended the Madeleine McCann disappearance ) as to what has been found.
I'm saying it's more than likely that the man under arrest,is the right man,,but police have only got 2 hours to come up with the proof.
