Police search for items in Georgia Williams murder case
Officers investigating the murder of Georgia Williams are continuing their inquiries today and are asking for the public’s help as they search for several items that are important to their investigation.
The 17-year-old went missing from Wellington on Sunday 26 May and a body, which detectives believe is Georgia, was found yesterday afternoon in woodland off the Nant-y-Garth pass near Wrexham.
Jamie Reynolds, 22, of Avondale Road, Wellington, was arrested in Glasgow on Wednesday, originally on suspicion of kidnap and then for murder later the same day.
He was charged with murder yesterday afternoon and appeared at Telford Magistrates’ Court this morning where he was remanded into custody to appear at Stafford Crown Court on Tuesday 4 June.
Extensive Searches
Specialist officers are conducting extensive searches at the site where the body was discovered as they attempt to trace some missing items that belonged to Georgia.
In particular they are looking for a bag, a makeup bag, her mobile phone and items of clothing. The bag is a distinctive spotty leather satchel and her smart phone is a white Samsung Galaxy Y. The makeup bag is pink with a flowered pattern and contained various items of makeup.
Among items of clothes missing, detectives are particularly keen to trace Georgia’s waist-length black leather-type jacket with a stand-up collar, which she was wearing when she was last seen leaving her family’s home in Wellington at 7.30pm on Sunday evening.
Detective Superintendent Adrian McGee, who is leading the investigation, said: “Despite a man appearing in court this morning charged with Georgia’s Williams murder, we still have a lot of work to do.
“The support the public and the media have given to our investigation so far has been fantastic, but we need to ask for their help once more as we try to find these items.
“If anyone is aware of their whereabouts or comes across any suspicious items, particularly in the area between Oswestry, Wrexham and Ruthin in north Shropshire and Denbighshire, then please get in touch.”
Supt McGee and the investigation team can be contacted via the non-emergency police number 101 and asking for West Mercia Police.
