Is it likely the new searches will reveal anything so long after or are the police hoping it might re-new publicity into the case?

Despite some positive words I don't believe the Police are any closer at all in finding the killer.

Predicting arrests but talk of 'possible' and 'hypothesis' are not words of confidence.

Some cases are cracked a long time after the event but I don't see any grounds for optimism here.

Such a shame for the friends and family

[agchristie]

Absolutely Ric.ror.

I guess it doesn't help if people have hindered the investigation with their lies but this is a complex case with the potential to affect a number of relationships seemingly...

Strange case alright.

I know this area extremely well as I was brought up in the area - there are so many areas in which a body could have been hidden on that route. It was said that she was last seen on Melrosegate (quite close here my son lived at the time) and there are areas of wasteland, disused railway cuttings, and wooded copses. I hope they do find the poor lass and the family can finally get closure.

We can only hope that something positive comes from it.

I don't understand why they are searching the lane now? After 6 years, surely no evidence would remain, there has been rain, snow, wind etc. I'm a bit confused by it all.

Totally agree MM. The pain in her father's face says it all really. So sad x
