I don't know how it works but wondered if they have maybe charged them with manslaughter to extend the time they are allowed to keep them in custody? I also think sadly they must have some evidence pointing them in that direction. I just find it unfathomable that the baby is alive and they are no commenting their interviews. Sadly the baby has IMO probably passed and it honestly is the stuff of nightmares what the baby's short time on earth must have been like. Cold, stressed, hungry, ill and in pain probably.
Process of elimination I guess. The police seem sure that they were alone and not being sheltered by anyone, so if they don’t have the baby with them, the baby must be gone.

It’s sickening to think about.

I’m surprised they can hold them on suspicion of manslaughter without a body being found. That poor baby. I don’t understand this bleeping world sometimes.

Thats like saying without a body there is no reason to charge a person of murder. Which we know has been done in the past

Could be that one of them said something to indicate the child isn’t alive?

Yeah and it’s not like if they’d found him without her and it was possible she was alive and had struck out somewhere else on her own so it might be harder to charge him, the baby would be totally reliant on them so if they have left the poor thing alone overnight at this point, it’s a logical end point.

Massive assumption or tiny one, we don’t have much to back it up with and at the moment it’s nothing more than speculation.
sorry if my tone doesn’t come across as very friendly - unintentional. Not sure how to say it any other way tbh.
Yes, it’s speculation, but maybe arriving at a not unreasonable conclusion.
Judgemental? I don’t mind being somewhat judgmental if a baby is dead after extremely irresponsible behaviour.

Whatever happens I hope she is kept away from him, pregnancy is such a high risk time for abuse and a good way for someone to gain control over a woman. I just hope he hasn't got her pregnant again already.

I have to apologise for taking that assumption at face value.

Oh my gosh, that thought is scary, I hadn't considering that she could be pregnant again. I hope not.
I fear the worse for that little baby, such a shame.

I’m sure (but am happy to be corrected if I’m wrong) that I saw a few weeks ago cctv of him throwing a stroller over a fence into some sort of wasteland. I believe that’s because the baby passed, I thought it then and now they have been arrested without the baby I really think unfortunately the worst has happened. I would hope that now the police have them separated, Constance will tell the police where the baby is and what actually happened.

Pair of utterly disgusting scumbags, running around in those cctv images without a care in the world, skipping around the woods, as long as they’re together they’re happy, meanwhile their dead newborn has been discarded like a piece of rubbish along the way.

They did get rid of the pram, but then took a taxi after and the news before were saying the police said the known taxi drivers they used heard a baby crying and saw movement.

I'm so angry. That poor baby. What scumbags. Sadly I'm not surprised by any of this though.

Exactly my thoughts. Pair of scumbags. Why would she willingly have a baby with a rapist / sex offender. And to not tell the police where said baby is. 200 officers searching 200!!!!!! throw them BOTH in jail. I’m so mad. That poor baby. Running away and not getting checked out and then camping out is awful as well that baby never stood a chance.

Well at least that’s something then. Although I still don’t believe the baby is alive anymore unfortunately. Could help the police narrow down what areas/counties to be looking in though as they have travelled around so much it’s a logistical nightmare.

They were saying the area between the last sighting and Brighton was the focus in the press conference.

I also don’t think the poor baby is still alive, such a horrible story.

I just got an alert on my phone saying they’ve been charged with manslaughter as they believe the baby has come to harm 😢😢😢

Constance’s open FB account had a folder with photos of three kids. People speculated that some of the photos looked like they’d been taken at a contact centre.
There’s one that looks like it’s taken in an office but it looks more like a hospital or drs surgery. Are her other children called Bty and Cof or is that just nicknames?
 
I think the baby already died a while ago. I can't see how they've gone to such lengths to 'protect' it by running away to then suddenly leave it alone somewhere whilst they both pop to the shop late at night. Surely she would of stayed with baby whilst he went for supplies and it would of drawn less suspicion.
