The landlord was arrested , named and photo shown in the press, he was in custody for a day or two before being released. The landord went through hell and back when first released as the public had decided he was guilty. It was a short while before the girls neighbour was arrested and charged of her murder.

Am I alone thinking the police have arrested this man too quickly ? I am the first to admit I am a doubting Thomas , but I really do feel uncomfortable at the speed this man has been arrested. One or two things puzzle me. IF this man really did take April ( and I am not saying he didn't ) would he take her in front of other children ? surely living in a village everybody knows everybody, the other children said April got in a grey van . Yet police took a blue range rover from his garage.Things just don't add up to me,however I do trust forensics and hope they have done their job right. One day I think Crimewatch will reveal how this crime was solved, I look forward to it, meanwhile , this man has to go to court and the jury do their job. Maybe we will learn more then.Meanwhile I hope April is found .

Well, good for your mind, you have recall, I am awaiting results one way or the other just as I did then, put something useful forward or get off the case and leave the Police to do their job.
If he IS absolutely innocent he will be released, if there is enough to convict he will be put before 12 of his peers and they will decide, on his guilt or innocence. My conscience does not need to be pricked by you.
