Just a theory. But in that early morning cctv feature, does that guy look like he has a limp/perhaps an inward facing right foot?

She swam in a dangerous pond.
RIP to her dad who recently died. Broke my heart he never found out what happened to her. He seemed heartbroken too đđ
I think it really affected his health. He was broken. So sad.
RIP đđđđ
Some would say they are together now and he knows everything. Perhaps?
He was always on the edge of a Breakdown and i think not knowing what happened or where she was, broke him.
I mean to say he did seem heartbroken.
Claudiaâs father died very recently. Itâs all so sad.
So tragic
Oh no, he did? I didn't know that. That's so heartbreaking đ He never got to find out what happened to his daughter.
So tragic for him to pass without knowing who took his daughter.
Your channel is excellent, no graphics, no mugging for the camera, no "HEY YOU GUYS!" just clear, concise facts. Wonderful, so refreshing!! I'm on a total binge watch. Thank you.
Same here.
Yes...same same here... others the cameras more on them than anything else with an extended version of a two line story
Apart from the constant ads
THIS. I can't watch *so* much true crime on youtube because I have absolutely no interest in the presenter's opinion or facial expression or jokes. It isn't appropriate when you're talking about suspicious or tragic deaths! Love this channel so much.
Leave Mike out of this!
I once had the great pleasure of meeting Peter Lawrence, he was such a lovely, softly spoken and extremely kind man. However, I will never get the image out of my mind the look of someone who doesn't have closure. He told Me he would always have hope and someone somewhere knows what happened. Unfortunately, he died without getting the closure he so desperately wanted. RIP Peter.
Nobody knows what happens after human death but it seems pretty feasible he could find her spirit, energy, soul somewhere. He probably knows right now. Iâve heard so many cases and thought it wouldâve been better to not have known, if itâs excessively heinous.
Do you watch Pandoras Box?

I was a chef and used to walk to work very early in the morning until this happened. My father insisted on driving me there and if he couldn't he'd get me a taxi. I wish her father had found out what had happened to her before he passed away.
I can't understand why someone she was friendly with or generally knew couldn't have offered her a lift - very odd!
I agree with the detective at the start. Someone close to her knows something. Hope she is found some day. Always felt immense sorrow for her father.
Ive always found it odd, that 'the chef' her colleague, said in an interview that ' he would normally take Claudias route incase she wanted a lift, but not on 'that' morning he didnt, he said he took a different route and he couldnt quite remember why. He waited along time 'years' to reveal 'that'.
It was likely the chef. Especially if it was rhe chef who dropped her off the previous night.
I agree! Iâve always thought that was weird and itâs always stood out to me. Sounds like a clue to me!
Likely wasnât him if the man showed up to work on time which he did. Come on use your brains.
Great detective work Nancy drew lol
@@bayek9869Unless he offered her a ride a little earlier that morning. Tells her theyâll go for breakfast in the morning. What is that? An extra 30-45 minutes to spare⊠all kinds of things you can do in that time.
Peter went to his grave having fought incredibly hard to get to the truth behind Claudiaâs disappearance. He never failed her. Those who know what happened and refuse to speak up are shameful. At least give Joan the opportunity for the closure that Peter never got.
I agree. Itâs sick to torment people like that. Someone knows and they need to talk.
I did not know her father had died. I never knew that. Claudia is definitely dead. The pub holds the key i think.
@Strong Woman Anonymous tips could be left to get the police on the right road. There is no excuse to cover up for murder, in my eyes!
@@louiseharraway2599 Yes, this year. i saw it on the News.
@@rivermoon6190 Claudias friends, hold the key to her death. i read once from someone who said that a letter was posted through claudias door, saying to meet someone that night. that her friends were not her friends and it was to do with her friends BF . The house had been tidied up and her backpack taken to look like she had gone to work that morning. she was killed that night. this person said the pub was were it happened. why would you be removing a mattress from the pub about midnight time or later.
GREAT USE OF ACTUAL REAL FOOTAGE IN YOUR DOCUSERIES. OUTSTANDINGđđđ
Her Dad was in a choir on BGT put together for family who have missing loved ones. I can't imagine not knowing where my child is.
Gosh thatâs so sad đąđą
đ
When my daughter was younger, around seventeen, she would just take off with her friends. No word to me at all. Right after she went on a âroad tripâ she and her friends were arrested in another state for marijuana possession. I let her stay there. The stress of not knowing where your child is is the worst feeling in the world. I canât imagine the emptiness of never knowing anything. đą
When I was younger I put my poor mother through hell by not telling her where I was. It was the time before cell phones. I canât apologise to her enough now! I feel so bad for worrying her x
My 17 yo daughter wouldn't even consider thinking doing something like that! Raise your kids right! Discipline but treat them with respect!
To be honest I don't blame you for leaving her in the polices care, that was the one night where you actually knew where she was and that she was safe
@@ognyena you donât know how she raised her daughter. Plenty of people raise their kids well and some kids are still going to do what they want.
@@ognyena you believe that, but you donât know 100% how your daughter would act. so best not to be judgy to others.
Well that was one scarey statement: "Police checked known serial killers who were in the are at that time". What?? How many of them are out there? And if the police know about serial killers out there, WHY are they still out there???
I thought the exact same thing đźđŹ
The police use them to keep the population down
This case has always baffled me.. itâs so crazy.. she disappeared out of thin air. I hope one day they solve it but it doesnât seem likely :(
Probably a Fred West type case.
crazy how many people seem to disappear like that never to be found.
Itâs disappear **into* thin air, not out of
An American who analyzes CCTV footage as his career looked at the CCTV footage for this case frame by frame and he said that the man looked straight at the camera in a few frames. There is a publication in the UK who examined his original frames and said that they were surprised at how much facial detail they could see. The man is balding with big ears and his nose and mouth features look so much like Halliwell thatArrin submitted it to a few other experts who agreed with him. I believe he said that Scotland Yard will be investigating whether it was Halliwell. If not, the person looks a whole lot like him.
â@@MM-we4no ffs đđ
I hate unsolved missing person cases!! People can't disappear into thin air. It is beyond frustrating. Where in the hell are all of these missing people!?
Most are buried somewhere unfortunately. I can't imagine a worse nightmare for a parent. đ
My fave thing about 2021 was finding this channel
Thank you for your amazing uploads and great videos
My son's birthday is March 18th. Sad to think such a happy date for some is the very worst day of another's life. Praying her family finds answers.
I remember when this happened and the media ripped this girl apart, saying how many men she had in her life and if I remember correctly bringing up that she was seeing a married man ect (I think it was never proven) but the media basically tried making out she may have been abducted because of her lovelife! I do think it's someone she knows and more than likely the same person who was seen on cctv going in and out the alley
However though... I will say this.... If you let too many people in your life you may have a higher chance of this happening.
Yes. That made the people in her local pub where she hung out clam up because they didn't want to be seen as having an affair. Poor Policing. What about the mechanics where her car was booked in? Wasn't the garage very close by her home?
@@sarahholland2600 the garage was round the back of nagshead
Wasn't she seeing like 4 men at the same time. Like she was actively sleeping with at least 4 men at the same time, in which case that is bound to cause problems when they find out about the 'others', or if their partners find out. If you sleep with one married man, you will probably get away with it. Sleep with 4 at the same time and chances are at least one of their partners would find out. Or at least one of them would turn on her if they thought she was going to tell his partner. Either way, she was playing a risky game...
@@petyrbaelish1718 Who says all 4 of these men were married or even had partners?
You are almost implying that she brought this on herself. She was young, free and single and we all do silly things. Unfortunately, whatever her relationships were, one obviously proved fatal.
Peter was a lovely man, i met him with my family back in London on a show where he appealed to find his missing daughter, i was there with my family appealing to my find my missing dad. this brought back so many memories. rip peter â€
Iâm sorry about your father đą is his case known in the media?
The way that person stopped in the alley just to let someone pass was really strange... hope they solve this soon
So early n the morning too
@@joycejnn it really was weird! I agree!
@Overlord Laharl You are right.
Drugs
@@bowjana8128 Visits were brief , stash point .
why would the killer be honest with the police, isnt that the point .
It really bothers me that in this day and age, even in 2009, someone can just disappear and no one knows what happened and that person is never found. Love your channel btw x
I didnât know her father had passed recently đąI find that so sad that he never had the closure of what happened to his beloved daughter đ„ș
I can only hope theyâre together now â„ïž
The worse murder is an unsolved one..Her poor father died without knowing what happened to his daughter..This is heart breaking...I pray they find the evil monster that did this đ
Thanks for being so concise and tactful! I've never commented on a video before but felt you deserved the praise x
Your content and storytelling is incredible. Thank you for sharing Claudia's story đ â€
Heartbreaking for her poor father- found this so upsetting. Brilliantly presented, refreshingly no BS just the details of the case.
Not just her father, I believe her mother and sister are still living, and she also had many friends who cared about her. Someone is either lying or not coming forward, and knows exactly what happened to Claudia. Years later, and many still want answers.
It's always striking how in so many murder cases there's a strong link between sex and death.
Most murders are linked to either sex/love or money
This is just tragic and sad. It frustrates me so much that police don't act immediately on missing persons cases.
I still get incredibly frustrated having dealt with a family member who went "missing." No one ever could have believed that she went off on her own. The police opened an investigation after about 6 days, after we started the search on our own. They came to believe foul play was involved at that point. Then, suddenly, she returned after close to two months.
After that & hearing similar cases, I now understand why it's impossible to follow all missing persons cases. The pain of the unknown is unimaginable. So many people go missing everyday & many have lives we never know about (no matter how close they are with their families & friends.) The police are just not able to throw their resources every time someone goes missing. I still wish they could, don't get me wrong...I just understand it a bit more now.
Because not every case is actually someone missing. Everyone thinks they know someone and a bunch of times they don't. Just like they said The vast majority of the people turn up. Can't blame anyone for that. What about all the killers who ppl say that they could never do anything like that.We only know it was not the case because it turned into a case
It's still incredibly detrimental to cases where they didn't leave of their own free will. Double edge sword, I know, but....
There just arent enough resources. There are a lot of controlling parents and spouses who would use instant police action as a weapon. Further the overwhelming majority of missing persons are not missing, they are just not where someone else expects them to be.
This is easily the best factual presentation on CZcams. Congrats, you have this down perfect, and with great dignity.
If I mysteriously didn't show up for work one day, my manager would fire me instantly and would go about his day
Literally same!!
so very well put together and done. in fact the best one iâve actually seen. information id not heard before . very good research indeed. thank you đ
This case needs solving. I'm sure the man seen in the PM and then AM video is the same person. He's obviously there looking for someone. Why such disparate hours? PM, looking for her house & the AM, waiting for her to leave for work maybe? Unless he knew the person who crossed is path in the PM video & did not want to talk to them, it seems he did not want to be seen in the area for some reason. Creepy vid. He really stands out to me. So sorry to hear her father has passed away.
So sad that her dad didnt find out where his missing daughter was before he died. Its heartbreaking what her family went through. And still are hope they get closure soon.đâ€ïžâ€ïžxxx
The cctv is compelling and pretty weird.. why would that that person would stop walking when they saw someone else crossing the road? But! All of the stuff she takes to work every morning was missin, so that makes me think she went missing in the morning as she was leaving for work...? Itâs so strange and scary. Itâs like half the evidence points towards the night before and half of it points towards the next morning. Itâs sad her dad died before they could crack the case. Great upload thank you đđ»
The person in the CCTV matches the description of the person Claudia was (supposedly) seen talking to near Melrosegate bridge, dark hoodie & dark cargo pants (which gives the sighting credibility). Seems like he visited her place around 7pm the previous night via the ally way (spying or checking up on her?), he didn't stay long. Goes back the next morning, maybe she's left by then so he catches up with her at the bridge. The red post box with CCTV is further down the road & she's not seen there, so it seems she doesn't make it beyond the bridge?
Her work rucksack was missing. Funny how the man in CCTV was carrying a rucksack on his back
Rest In Peace beautiful young lady. Youâre safe now.
@@LadyAngela678 most probably isn't but "safe now " what's all that about she's dead that's it
Why are cctv camera images for crimes always grainy and terrible?
Love your channel thank you for sharing all these stories and hopefully it will continue
As a Mother of 2 (&a Grandmother of 3), I can't even begin to imagine the never ending pain her Parents are going thru with not knowing what has happened to their beloved Daughter. It truly breaks my heart đąđ
â€ïž itâs a truly sad and unsettling case
agree đ
oh listen to yourself đ 'as a other of 2 ohhhh and grandmother of 3' why add bloody nonsense information about your life into your comment?? nobody is interested in you!! the woman was promiscuous!!! and she's obviously met with a very wrong kind of person! people like you are full of it...

Wow I didnât know her father passed away, heartbreaking.
I did not know her dad had died either.
Yes, earlier this year i think. So Sad. He never got over what happened and the not knowing where she was.
@@racheldemain1940 So sad - may he RIPđ
I love this channel, you are so good at relating facts and not opinions.
G'day! I am binge-watching your videos, love your content. Keep up the great work đ
Am hooked up with your channel. Your calming voice and the attention to detail is awesome. Keep it up
I hope they find this poor lady, and what happened to her, real soon. This has gone on too long. Her poor father was tortured. R.I.P đâ€
This case is absolutely bizarre!
Itâs hard for me to like the videos you post because of the nature of them, however I want to graciously you posting these and getting the information out. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication!
I think most people who use CZcams understand that you arenât âlikingâ what happened in the videos, but showing your appreciation for the work that went into the video itself. I know what you mean though.
This case is so strange! I had heard of her name before but never really looked into it. I wonder why it took the police so long to release that cctv footage? I think the only way they will solve this now is by someone just being brave and talking, otherwise it seems it would stay cold :(
This case has always freaked me out...
It must be so painful not having closure on your child, sibling or friend disappearing like this. Not sure how it is possible in this day and age
I have a problem with
' Wrong place , Wrong time '
Do we now need to develop an app/surveillance and check wether we can be in a certain place when we need to be?
Just like the ' Wrong crowd '
Is there a ' Right crowd '?
Its bullshit blanket dismissals.
Her poor family đ what a sad case.
I believe that this has all the hallmarks to a lot of unsolved cases and that the killer is still at large (probably a serial killer) operating randomly over a number of years/decades and once the killer is found will probably solve a number of cases as in the same scenario as Levi Belfield
Satanic ritual abuse.
Your thorough research and unbiased presentation of the facts is why l have not stopped binge watching since discovering this channel several days ago.
I always thought that the media where trying to say something about Claudia without actually saying it out straight, did anyone else ever think that?
Such as...?
Where on earth is she? How can anyone just disappear without a single trace?
I canât imagine what her parents and people whoâs loved ones have disappeared what they go through on a daily basis đđą
Reminds me of the Trevor Deely case.
The fact that she has âdisappeared without traceâ leads me to wonder whether she is concealed in a (local) garden or building, ie. a non-public area that will miss being searched without key info.
Jilted lover...too much flirting
Satanic ritual abuse.
Well, people don't just disappear. Considering it was likely someone she knew, I think it was someone from her workplace.
Someone somewhere knows enough to bring this horrendous crime to a close, MAKE THAT CALL
The fact that police sat on this missing case of Claudia is inexcusable. They should have treated her missing as an emergency and treated it as such. They lost precious time and possible evidence that was lost.
Yeah. British police are wank
Poor family and poor Claudia! I canât imagine going through something like this, so horrific! đą
She had breakfast. Her phone and chef uniform are missing.
She was abducted on way to work.
Just saying that this cannot be conclusive. Maybe late evening snack prior to being picked up that evening stay over elsewhere. So took work items expecting to be given lift in next day. You may be right but very likely alternatisve is here. Phone call to mother saying going to bed at 9 a cover for don't call me. I have alternative business to deal with. Indeed no phone use after 9pm. An escort process has been mentioned elsewhere. There are many threads to this thing.
Itâs crazy how thereâs someone out there who probably knows what happened. Heartless git not coming forward and saying. Heart breaking for her dad.
Hearing of any murder is absolutely awful.. but hearing of a murder where theyâve never found the victim & given their family that necessary closure is completely & utterly heartbreaking (& not thdv
15:23 he complains people are sitting on information. Why did it take 6 years to publish actual cctv footage of the bloke staking her out?
Quality report as usual.
I really hope that one day we will find out what happened to Claudia. â€
I love your channel by the way Iâm subscribed to way too many yours is my absolute favourite you have got it spot on
Truly sad case and strange, RIP to her dad, someone knows what happened.
Please do a video on the disappearance of Bianca Lebron. It's sad and unsettling
She is still missing...
Why say "protect her reputation"? That's judgement and definitely will make people assume she had a unhealthy life style. Reporters need to be careful how they choose their words. & Only state facts!!!
I agree with this, I didnât like how they presented it in crimewatch and I think they made her look a certain way like it was almost her fault she went missing? Really didnât like it :(
I'm not sure she had a reputation to protect - if you read about her, she was a complete slag. That's a matter of recorded fact.
@@monkeytennis8861 and youâre a complete a***h***
Shut up
@100truecrimejunkie not that should open her up to murder or anything else, and the men she carried on with are just as bad, but come on...
@@monkeytennis8861 thatâs a messed up thing to say
So infuriating that police always downplay concerns about missing persons. Is it really that common that people just âdisappearâ off grid without telling family, friends or their work that theyâve gone on a holiday? Not something Iâve done or anyone I know
I do love this channel. Very, intelligent and in-depth reporter.
So very unsettling & tragic for family đ°
I still haven't understood how these people come up missing. It been so many people coming up missing.
How did it take them 6 years to come across that camera footage?
I alwys become sad and depressed when i see this kind of news....specially for the innocent victims and their hopeless parents and family đđđđ.......god may protect us and give them their best place after the tragic death
Great video! You have a lovely voice. This is just so sad đ I hope they donât give up on the case because her family deserves to know what happened.
Truly scary how someone can just poof put of existence and no one will ever know where you went, who your with, if your alive or dead nothing just gone đ
According to the news, they are looking in an area 8 miles away from where she lived, some old gravel pits. The police wonât disclose why they are looking there.
"Known serial killers in the area." ?!?
Yikes.
It's wild that with all the CCTV in Britain we still don't know what happened to her.
CCTV images were higher quality in the 1980s than they are now - just look at some of the old Crimewatch episodes from back in the day.
Arrin Stoner found out that the CCTV the next morning had been spliced just to show the 3 people who walked past the camera and in doing so, had removed the times. What a weird thing to do.
â@@robicenco1No they weren't and they hardly existed dude đź
The police know who did it, but they have no evidence.
Who did it?
If there is no evidence then how can they definitively say they know who it is? That would be shoddy police work and is probably why they have been flailing in the wind.
@@bushmonster1702 they don't have enough evidence to satisfy the CPS, that's not the same as having no evidence
Claudia's father died this year never knowing what happened to her đ
Great video. Well structured and really interesting....
Excellent coverage of this case. So sad. Thank you!
I always thought the police were barking up the wrong tree with this case.
So which tree should they have barked up then ?
I find it odd her boss rang her once then didn't follow up when she'd been not at work for 2 days. It was left to her friend. In the documentary he says he'd given her the odd lift to work before. So why hadn't he that day? Had they fallen out ?
Claudia had told her Mum on the phone that she was walking to work the next morning (day of disappearance) as her car was being fixed, but had not said anything, as far as I know, about falling out with her boss. Iâm sure Claudia would have mentioned this to her mum?
@@rivermoon6190 if it was what she thought was a minor spat she thought was resolved, maybe she wouldn't. The other suspect I think is important is the property manager seen in the very early hours. Why would he be around so early even if he had properties in the area ? He's since died, but if he was in property ( his own refurb business or working for sales/lettings agent isn't made clear ) he'd maybe have access to mid refurb or empty homes to hide a body for a while....
If her boss is skinny and smokes I think Iâll agree with you. I read a different comment saying her boss said he took a different route to work that day and he doesnât know why.
@@jul30ie perhaps he 'knew' Claudia didn't need a lift that day? đ€
I love this story. I hope for peace âïž for the family and victim.
Excellent channel.such a shame.Claudia was immensely beautiful and talented.
honestly my favourite channel of true crime
From what we know, there was no signs of a struggle of any kind within the house, back garden or alleyway. So what we're left to believe is something happened on the way to work. From cctv we see someone use the back alley as entrance to the rear of the houses. And it would seem this person visited a couple of times. The alley as far as I can see only has one way in and out and isn't a walk through. So could this person be visiting Claudia's home to retrieve something, something she has that he needed? Guessing all households attached to that alleyway would have been eliminated from the investigation and the guy wasn't an owner or visitor of any of these other properties. He wasn't seen carrying anything significant ie a TV, big value goods ruling out a random kill to feed a habit etc, so could he be removing something of his from her property he left behind, or something she had of his which give them a connection. So this would mean the person knew her travel route, where she lived, there was back access to the property, he had a key and was aware not to leave any type of evidence behind. Her phone was active for 4 hours after her reported disappearance, and then was manually switched off at 12:10... it hadn't left the area in that time and stayed local until it was powered down and off. Had her murderer switched it off or was it found by a random person who thought it was their lucky day who would of powered down and then powered up with a new sim? Could they track by imei in 2009 ? But if it was the murderer, was this a return to the scene or was it taken with them again leading you to think he was local and why the signal didn't move from its local mast which gave a circumference of 9 miles.
I love how the police pretend to know more about a person's habits and behavior, than the family members that are desperately trying to find them. So frustrating.
It's definitely something to do with the blokes at the pub. Time to own up lads .
Yeah, you need to look at those around her, but you damn sure don't ONLY look at people around her.
Subbed and didnât skip the ads! Hope that helps!,
This is a very baffling caseâŠit sounds like it wouldâve taken her an hour to walk from her flat to her work place and if she was was starting work at 6am sheâd have left her flat no later than 5am and so much couldâve happened to her in that one hour walking alone if she ever left her flat alive, also there is video footage of her on the 18th leaving work and walking past a red post office box and posting something but no footage of her the 19th which is the day she went missing, which sounds to me she did not make it very far when she left her house that dayâŠ..hope one day we find out the answers and the people responsible are brought to justice.
She lived in a house not a flat
That's the same man walking in and out of the alley on separate days. He has the same walk and gait with the hands in his jacket pockets.
Poor Claudia she was such a beautiful young lady itâs a shame her life was snuffed out by a đș
Snuffed out đŹ..that sounds so horrible đȘ
Can you please do more unsolved cases? I feel bad sometimes watching cases that have been solved, when those families should be allowed to move on. There are many open cases that need our attention.
I have tried to do good in my life, awaiting good karma...but a new clip from my fav channel/content creator is reward enough. đ„
Ah, CCTV! The perfect method for keeping track of blurry stick figures.
The crime series See No Evil shows a lot can be solved from these blurry stick figures
Even with today's technology, UK CCTV cameras are not thr best.
Not sure if you still cover unsolved cases, but if so I just wanted to suggest the case of Andrew Gosden which breaks my heart also.
You missed the bit where she posted a letter outside the post office, caught on CCTV.
It's been mentioned dude đź
