Anyone remember this interesting case? There was an ITV documentary last year when his parents had been arrested by a cold case team and then freed on bail. Mark Williams-Thomas veered towards them not being involved.
6ft tall and very slow walking with a limp after being hit by a car aged 3, Steven Clark, 22, went missing 28 Dec 1992. Steven's mum had accompanied him on a walk on Saltburn beach. As he went in the toilet, his mother also did and this was the last time she saw her son. He had a sister who would be home from uni then but rarely is she ever mentioned. She said he went in the gents on the sea front and she the ladies. She came out and expected him to be waiting for her. No sign so she called in and no answer. She didn't peep inside the loos which struck police as odd. Wouldn't most people have a quick look even if it was an opposite sex toilet? She walked home thinking he'd just walked home himself but her story seemed to chop and change a bit over the years. He had learning difficulties but wasn't too bad yet hasn't been seen again to this day. He left his reading glasses at home and if he'd wanted to disappear he would surely have taken those. He should have gone to a football match that day but argued with his dad as he said he should pay for himself so Steven ended up not going. No witnesses or CCTV shows him on that 40 min walk so only mum's word that they even went. No-one can recall seeing them together. House was searched and garden dug up by forensic teams but no body found. A woman staying in a guest house in the opposite direction to their house from the toilets who knew him says she saw him talking to or arguing with another man on the pavement outside later that afternoon. Another girl who knew him swears she saw him in town several days letter as did a man who has since died. In 1998 police received an anonymous letter saying Steven was dead and naming a person who had murdered him. The letter writer came forward but no more info has been released since then. A very strange and sad case. I think he was taken and killed after leaving the toilets but the police seem to still suspect his parents, both former police officers and now in their 80's. They have formally cleared them now but their suspicions remain. https://www.websleuths.com/forums/threads/u...in-2020.542404/ This post has been edited by crazy chris: 27th April 2023, 09:50 PM |
