It’s really strange HKP
In all my years as an investigator I have never come across the circumstances/ terminology used to describe what has happened in Lewes today
Never have I heard of a multi agency approach being conveyed to the discovery of a message in a bottle. Multi agency usually relates to Health , Probation, Social Services , Education representatives but I suppose could include waterways inspectors and environment agency but I cannot think why or the reasoning that it would be conveyed and almost held as a Major Incident.. and the lack of I’m formative press release leaves me personally speculating about things that I am not going to post publicly. But suffice to say that although the police do and have every right to keep information back, because of the murder of the woman a few miles away in Brighton and now allegedly a second MFH alongside Anthony’s MFH and a major incident declared, I personally as the SIO would have tried to end speculation rather than ramp it up which is what’s happened here by not really saying anything other than it’s not Anthony . So we can do nothing more than continue to do our best to find Anthony by collating ideas and looking at CCTV and maps etc and await further updates from Sussex Police.
