Hi everyone, reading "Gone" the book by Neil Root, about the disappearance of Claudia Lawrence. So far no one has been arrested with this crime, I have not read the full book. I've read that a policeman has not come forward, after it is claimed she had a affair with one. What does everyone think of this case.
I hope its ok to speak about this missing person

Thank you I suspect you would like this sort of post/ picture posted if you have a missing person from your family.
Ignore him. He was just trying to be funny because of your name but failed as usual.
We usually just pat him on the head and nod and smile :P
I don't think this poster "knew" you were related?
So now you are here, tell us what you can. It's a public forum so use it to your advantage.
I assume you want to keep focus on the case etc... I don't have time to read books right now so if you can summarise that would be great.
Was there a suggestion that she might be a good time girl, what ever that alludes to ?
I wouldn't want to speculate. So I won't.
But that may well have just been local gossip.
I wonder if this simply means that the police looked at her computer and saw that she was in touch with a few men, maybe from dating sites or forums, and came to a wrong conclusion.
i think the issue was that she didn't mind if the men were married or not.
The press always likes to paint the woman in the bad light. She was single. They were married.
I am only remembering what I read in in newspapers. I realise that the media often put 2 and 2 together and make 5. The fact that she allegedly had relationships with married men etc isn't my words. Its been reported in newspapers.
Its bad for the family, no-one wants to think the worst but when the brief facts that have been given out are put together, it doesn't seem like a random event.
The police have been cryptic because they know that revealing she'd had relationships with married men would have dramatically altered the public mood, remember women are judged far more harshly than men. I can't imagine there would have been as much sympathy for her had it it been revealed she'd been sleeping with other peoples husbands.
The families must be devastated, not knowing for certain.
Possibly. Is Stephen Griffiths still alive, 3 years on from his hunger strike?
ETA: he is, apparently, after a sixth suicide attempt last year.
Nope, no idea if it was the police or other bods. It was very odd.
A bit of water-boarding might help establish his side of the story when it comes to that theory
I actually think it'd be less unsettling if she had been found - even if she was found dead. But it is the not knowing where exactly she his, what exactly happened and who did whatever they did (I mean she must be dead, murdered, surely?) and the idea they could still be out there in my far-too-close-for-comfort surroundings that makes this case particularly stand out.
I usually "love" reading about weird cases like this, but this one, less so.
EDIT: she also worked at my college in uni, in the Roger Kirk centre kitchen... literally 90 seconds or so from my bedroom in first year.
Her poor parents.
