Oh don’t that was awful. His mum seems convinced he met someone though doesn’t she and he was into gaming.
I’m thinking it would just be skeleton by that point

Well, you'd think it would just be a skeleton hanging there wouldn't you? It came out at the inquest that cause of death couldn't be ascertained, due to decomposition, however, it was stated that the body had a beard, moustache and full sleeve tattoos so there must have been some of it left....?
I recently listened to a podcast about the Breck bednar case. The poor mum even reported the killer to the police but the police never investigated.
I hadn’t heard of this case, so sad.
The Breck case is so terrifying because his mum did everything right, but there was no support there to help her get through to him.
I've watched quite a few documentaries about the Breck Bednar case, and the Mum knew right at the start - she tried everything to keep Breck away from Lewis and it didn't work. The police should definitely have intervened and helped more, I feel so sad for her whenever I see her because she was let down by the people who were meant to help.
My heart broke for her. She called 101 the non emergency number, told them his name and how she was concerned that he was being groomed. The killer had a previous rape conviction. All they had to do was put his name into the database and they would have known about it all. The despatch caller says have stepped down so no formal investigation took place.
I don't have children, and probably won't, but it terrifies me how it is seemingly impossible to protect your children from online threats like these, even in the situation you are aware etc... she did everything "right" and STILL it was impossible. absolutely terrifying
as a mum of young boys, one who games, this particularly gets to me 
- his mum did everything she could, heartbreaking!

Richard Okorogheye: Police searching for missing student find a body in Epping Forest pond — Sky News
Police searching for missing student Richard Okorogheye, who went missing two weeks ago, say they have found a man's body in a pond in Epping Forest, Essex.
Little bit personal but I called the police once in regards to a man who was near to young family members and I felt was worrying. The mum of the kids thought he was absolutely fine but I found out he followed young girl models and dancers on IG and it just wasn’t right. The police officer on the phone said he wasn’t breaking any laws and that it was up to their mum to contact them if she was worried. What more is someone supposed to do? They’re older now and I will never know if something happened.
Finished watching Football’s Darkest Secret last night and that opened up some similar questions in my mind. Those poor parents now, knowing what happened to their boys at the hands of people they trusted. I’m not sure I’d let my child go and stay overnight with a single, adult male, but hindsight is a wonderful thing. Who do you trust??

I wonder what made him go across London to Epping Forest? Theres a few ponds in various parts the forest but someone not local to the area may not have been aware of them as not all them are big. Theres a few round High Beech which wouldnt be that visible in the dark.
I’ve been checking for news on Richard every morning. How dreadful.
Obviously ID is pending but certainly looks as like It will be his body.

So so sad. It’s quite a long way isn’t it and it was quite while after he was seen in London and then seen in Loughton and it seems likely to be suicide now so was he wondering around thinking about what he was going to do? Where he was going to go? Poor lad.
it seems strange to go all that way if it was suicide. maybe he was meeting someone one? i hope its not foul play and that his family get some answers and closure xx
I found this online, evidence given by Breck’s Mum, pages 15-28, lots of info and detail which makes the case even sadder. Break was murdered on his Mum’s birthday, absolutely heartbreaking.
Not at all. In fact you've reminded me that I still haven't started listening to this yet. Might see if the Dispatches documentary is still around too.
my heart is breaking reading that transcript- you can just feel the rising panic and impending sense of fear.
