Family appeals for information 26 years after woman's murder

Summarised from 3 outlets · Updated 3 Nov, 10:12 · Archive

The family of Vicky Glass, murdered in 2000, is appealing for information as Crimestoppers offers a £20,000 reward.

Vicky Glass went missing on 24 September 2000, shortly after her 21st birthday, and her body was discovered on 3 November 2000 in a stream on moorland near Danby in North Yorkshire. She was a vulnerable woman with a heroin addiction who had been drawn into sex work. Her mother, Deborah, died without seeing justice for her daughter.

Vicky's father, Tony Glass, said the past 26 years have been 'a lifetime of hell', describing how his daughter was 'wiped off the face of the earth'. Her stepfather, Colin Goodall, said: 'She was this little thing, you just wanted to cuddle her, everybody loved her. Everybody misses her, even now.' The family has described the case as 'brutal and vicious'.

Four men have been arrested over the years in connection with her death, including a 65-year-old man arrested in June this year who remains on police bail. Despite extensive enquiries and witness interviews, nobody has been charged or convicted. Crimestoppers is now offering a reward of up to £20,000 for information leading to arrest and conviction, guaranteeing anonymity for anyone who comes forward.
