Man Arrested............Body Found

A body has been recovered from the Leeds Liverpool canal near to Barden Lane in Burnley. Police are not releasing any information about the body.

Coincidentally a man from the Hapton area has been arrested and is being questioned re the missing Accrington man David Guilfoyle. Could it be connected, are they getting nearer to the truth, lets hope so........

If it is the missing person he can't be in too pleasant a condition. This is one of those times when the Police actually justify the money spent on them.

Now A-B, I’m sure that they earn it over and over again, death finds them in many ways and not always pleasantly. RTAs, Unexpected deaths of relatives that someone remembers to pay a call on weeks after they have died. Suicides? Long drops etc, Child deaths and of course this unpleasant episode. I wouldn’t want to be Policeman today…..If this does turn out to be the gentleman in question then my sympathies goes to is family and not least his daughter. No one deserves to die before there natural time and no one should suffer death in such a violent manner and be denied a decent burial.

Just been on the BBC website and they report that a man has been charged with murder, they name the man also, sorry there's no link not sure how to do that.

Re: Man Arrested............Body Found

Thanks for the link Bazf. Can they verify whether the body is that of Dave Guilfoyle? I didn't think that you could charge for murder in the abscense of a body. Then again they never found the body of the lady on Burnley Rd either.......

Their has been no connection mentioned yet between the discovery of the body in the canal and the charging of the man from Hapton.

Re: Man Arrested............Body Found

Thats true Fireman but the charging is in connection with Dave Guilfoyle and can they charge murder without a body? Not sure.

Re: Man Arrested............Body Found

They must be able to charge without a body if they have enough evidence pointing to murder, as in the Burnley Rd case, but I should think that they would be on pretty shaky ground. They would have to be able to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that it was murder...
