Lindsay's body was recovered from the Rochdale Canal

Detectives are appealing for help in solving the murder of a teenage girl who disappeared exactly 10 years ago.
Lindsay Jo Rimer, 13, left her Hebden Bridge home on 7 November 1994 at 10pm to buy cornflakes from the supermarket.
Her body was found five months later in the Rochdale Canal. Police hope the appeal will jog someone's memory.
Det Supt John Parkinson said: "Someone who was unable to come forward and speak to us a decade ago might now be in a position to do so."
He added all calls would be treated in confidence.

I believe that someone, somewhere, still has this crime on their conscience. I am in no doubt the answer lies in Hebden Bridge.

"Over the past weeks we have traced and spoken to a number of Lindsay's immediate school friends to see if they could recall anything further.
"It could be that someone locally put something to the back of their mind 10 years ago that they are now free to tell us," he said.
"I believe that someone, somewhere, still has this crime on their conscience.
"I am in no doubt the answer lies locally in Hebden Bridge."
Calder High School pupil Lindsay lived with her parents in Cambridge Street.
She left home to visit the Spar Supermarket in Crown Street and called in the Trades Club in Holme Street along the way.
CCTV footage shows her paying for the cornflakes at
10.22pm.
No-one has ever been charged with her murder.
