THE BOY FROM SUTTON

The Fifteen-Year-Old Boy Who Disappeared
>Lee had gone into Sutton that morning to meet a friend. They separated at about one o'clock, and Lee mentioned that he might go to Selhurst Park to watch football. At approximately 2:20 p.m., he was seen again in Sutton. After that, the trail stopped. What followed was a search that would stretch across decades.

Police investigated the initial leads, appealed for information and examined the places Lee was known to visit. Years later, the investigation took a new direction when police learned of Lee's connection to The Shed, a youth club at St Dunstan's Church. The churchyard was searched and extensively excavated. Lee was not found.
>Further appeals and witness information followed, yet the central question remained unanswered:
Where did Lee go after 2:20?
The Boy from Sutton follows Lee's disappearance, the investigations that followed, the evidence that changed the direction of the case, and the decades-long search for an answer. It examines what the evidence can establish, what remains disputed, and what is still unknown.
At the centre of the investigation is a fifteen-year-old boy who left home one Saturday in September 1988 and never returned. Nearly four decades later, the question remains.
