Overview
- Lucy Hargreaves was shot and her house set on fire in Walton in August 2005 while her partner and their two-year-old escaped, and her killing remains unsolved.
- Kevin Parle is the prime suspect and has been on the run for more than 20 years with investigators saying he has links to Spain and listing him on the NCA Operation Captura most-wanted list.
- Police have arrested 21 people across the long-running inquiry but no one has been convicted, and a 2007 trial of two men was stopped when a judge found insufficient evidence to proceed.
- Crimestoppers has offered a reward and the charity and police say there have been unconfirmed sightings of Parle in Spain, Australia and Dubai but no verified leads so far.
- A new Rob Rinder documentary has reunited investigators and the victim's family and officials hope the publicity will generate new tips that could move the cold case forward.
