Missing Person

Post by General Mannerheim » Tue Dec 21, 2010 11:01 am

This sort of thing kindda puts your problems into perspective, you see this kind of thing on the news all the time but its never somebody you know – a girl from my work has gone missing, just days before Christmas too!... we got this email yesterday;
All,

Most of you have probably heard by now that Jo Yeates has been reported as missing. The last time she was seen was on Friday night; she made it home but was not there when Greg returned home from a weekend away late last night. Her belongings however were there including her house key, mobile phone and purse.

Although there is little we can do apart from help the police we can send the police missing person link below to people we know in Bristol.

Please forward on to help find Jo.

in the meantime Darragh will be our contact to Greg until Wednesday and then I will be the contact.

Mel & Darragh
It is really bizarre, she came to the pub after work on Friday, left at around 8pm and that’s the last anyone has seen of her. Unfortunately there is still no word today either. The police were going to update and notify her family with the next plan of action. It was even on Points West (like NW tonight) last night too apparently!... horrible.

I know we have a few Bristol based members so thought itd be worth a shot posting the link…

her boyfriend, Greg works here too. such a nice bloke. alot of people i have spoken to about it all reckon he is a suspect. i would be astounded if that turns out to be true.

the time of year just makes it worse - the family will never be able to properly enjoy christmas again!

He'll be a suspect until someone else comes into the frame. Standard procedure.

I'm sure the fact he was up with family in Yorkshire as it said on the news should count that possibility out - he seemed genuinely devastated at the press conference.

Has the media been sniffing round your office looking for interviews with staff General?

yep, weve had the paps round. we have all been told to say nowt. the Gaffer released an official statement.

The mysterry surrounding the case make you think someone close must know whats gone on. strange that she was last heard of on friday but the alarm wasnt raised till sunday night/monday morning. the fact that her shopping and personal belongings; phone, purse, keys, coat, passport are all at the flat. but there was no forced entry? if she was followed how did they know she would be home alone?.. so many questions!

Since you work there and know her general, I'd heed the boss's warning and not even pass any opinions or comments on here. Just my view.
