/// independent experts are reported to have concluded is human.///
Some experts they turned out to be!
I was really hoping it was going to be Keith's remains.

Dreadful reporting in the media, particularly the DM. Disgusting behaviour from the author who blatantly made false claims

//Disgusting behaviour from the author who blatantly made false claims//

I'm not sure we are in a position to say that at the moment.

Real pity they havnt found him.

Perhaps it would have been better to keep it 'under wraps' until the forensics were complete.

young, the DM reported that a skull of a 13-14 year old male had been found along with a jaw bone containing 5 teeth, confirmed by a forensic anthropologist who saw a photo of them sent by phone. Also scraps of clothing. The novelist put them back where he found them, he claimed in the DM article.
Days of searching by the police found nothing.
I stand by my earlier post

Shame. There should be an investigation into the whole episode and criminal charges brought, if necessary.

On another thread I wrote this earlier:

// Probably a bit of a sheep. The terrain is extremely rugged - rocky, peaty, shrub, marshy and hilly. Very hostile. And covered with sheep. //

I have walked this area extensively, and nothing is ever going to be found. Unless backed up by credible evidence.
