Missing woman’s remains found on a beach in Brighton after she vanished 140 miles away | UK | News

The police confirmed that the remains of a woman who disappeared from Jersey eight months ago were on a beach in Brighton. Anne Potter last left her home on the Canal Islands on October 20 last year. The strike was believed to walk towards the northern coast in the direction of Lecq.

At that time, a large number of exploration operations were launched with police, lifeguard crews, coastal security teams and drones. But no trace has been found so far. This week, the Sussex police confirmed that human residues discovered on a beach in Brighton were matched with the mother through the DNA test.

In a statement, Mark Hafey, the Chief Inspector of the Jersey Police States, said: “Unfortunately, we must verify the death of mother Potter, who disappeared in Jersey last autumn.

“The remains were now on a beach in Brighton, now approved as a DNA match with the mother.

“Anne was reported to be missing SOJP and immediately responded to a multi -agency.

“Our thoughts are with her husband, family and friends.”

At the time of disappearance, the police objected to the public for help.

On a Facebook post on October 20, civil servants wrote: “We are worried about the prosperity for Mother Potter.

“He left his last property today at 12:30 today. It is believed that he set out for the strike to the west.

Only days later, the police updated the public about ongoing efforts: “Strike was carried out and coordinated by L’Acq from Lecq West and SOJP to the East.

“Drone Rescue team and CI Air Search also searches along the northern coast and will continue to do so.

“Jersey’s West Coast beaches have been searched along the West Coast beaches. A very institutional approach was used in the search for mother.”

It is not yet known whether his death has been treated as a suspect.

The coronary of the island consults with Sussex Coroner to determine if more investigations are required.

The news comes immediately after a 13 -year -old missing child has made a big search near Tees River.
