on July 15 near the village of Masca, a few metres from his last known location. READ MORE: Jay Slater investigator posts cryptic message about missing teen case and hints at major

development Investigator Mark Williams-Thomas, who covered the case at the time and interviewed witnesses during the hunt for the missing teen, had previously released a cryptic post saying

he had recordings which “gives clarity and a clear narrative to the very sad situation and events” surrounding Jay’s disappearance. On Saturday afternoon he posted again, saying: “I think

enough time has now passed and given response from people it’s time now to just put into the public domain what was known at the time and since in regard to Jay Slater and make a programme.

“The family have been told everything, I know they are making a programme as well, but from a very different perspective. It became such a massive story with so much misinformation. I was in

the almost unique position to visit the locations and speak to nearly all the witnesses . It will take a little time because as with all my programmes they are carefully crafted.” Article

was appointed group-wide investigations editor creating documentaries and podcasts for the news brand. Responding to criticism online about why he didn’t release all he knew about Jay’s

disappearance at the time, he said: “I did not release it because I respected the family decision not to. I do think the time will come to release it. So much wrong speculation and opinion

around this case. “It’s a difficult decision to make if it’s best to just leave it all alone. That’s said the full details are very interesting and do provide clarity to the whole situation.

Although those who have a fixed opinion even though they know nothing properly I doubt will be moved.”
