Police investigating a suspected murder found a shoe and a distinctive sock at the scene near where human remains were found at a field in Sutton-in-Ashfield. The pair of socks - one of which was patterned - and a man's shoe were found by detectives at farmland off Coxmoor Lane.
The discovery of the human remains triggered a large-scale police murder investigation north of the county, that was officially declared and launched on Wednesday (May 24), nearly a month after the remains were found at the site on April 26. And in a press conference held at Nottinghamshire Police's Sherwood Lodge headquarters Assistant Chief Constable Rob Griffin issued a public appeal for information, with the force releasing a picture of the shoe and asking for the public's help with identifying who the items of clothing may belong to.
“One of his socks has got a pattern on it, which runs on the side and the other sock is plain black," he said. ACC Griffin said in an earlier statement: “Today we appeal for the public to come forward.
