Cheers Jay. Been 2 weeks tomorrow now :sad:
Personally wouldn't have thought he'd just go missing for 2 weeks its not like him. Especially as his sister was coming over to visit with his nephew. He would have made sure he was home for their arrival.

What gets me is he'd been missing for nearly 2 weeks and its only been on local news/papers. if it was a women it would be headline news every day :sad:

Post by: Steve_PD on 06 June 2011, 20:05
No news, nothing at all 15 days now.

Police, Dartmoor search and rescue, friends and family are still searching and the police are doing all they can.
Just wish the press would take some notice as there is a good chance he got a lift with someone and they could have travelled a couple hundred miles to go the party and not know he's missing.
But he's male so they aren't interested
Thanks for the kind words and support :afro:

All national newspapers have been emailed and/or phoned. none are interested as nothing has happened
some local news papers have been running stories when police have released info

Must have some friends in common somewhere as also seen this on my FB, hope he turns up ok

He'd very big in the free party scene and knows alot of people. plus the FB group has over 9k members
