Mystery deepens over Jay Slater’s last steps as ex-cop says 'huge gaps' in police investigation 

Around 170,000 people from the UK go missing every year, approximately 600 of them abroad. Why is the media so obsessed with this one guy, when we rarely ever hear about the others? The guy was clearly a bad egg who got involved in some bad crap. What about all the innocent kids taken every year? Where's their media attention?

He's either been dumped in the sea, his phone thrown in that last ping location, - The Guardia Civil need to check the Hire Car the two guys used to see if any of jays DNA is still in it - will be from night before - but - on the day of disappearance - traces of blood in the boot ? mind u is 4 weeks on so that car may have been cleaned and rented out again - - i agree this does stink - these 2 guys need arresting quick - as cannot see he's hiked through the mountains, hidden, and he's injured, in a T Shirt for nigh on 4 week now else he would have been found by now, wouldn't have strayed that far off pieste surely ??? God knows whole thing is weird but there are deffo people who have lied & know. They all should be re interviewed by UK Cops.

Take the two guys at the Airbnb down to the station, separate them and tell each one that the other one rolled on him and told the police everything. How it was his fault that Jay is missing and now they’re gonna put this guy in jail for the rest of his life,and see how fast they start talking. And do the same thing with this Lucy and Brad. Somebody will roll and spill the beans on what happened.

That guy looks extremely dodgy…. Bet he has something to do with it.

"For Some Reason" he goes with a drug dealer to his AirBNB... hmm, I wonder what that reason could be?

The two men know more.

A young man who bit off more than he could chew and got involved with some bad people ..

I love how in spite of violent criminal history the media are trying to paint him as an innocent young man on his first holiday …. C’mon .

If you're asking me to put "2&2 together", Jay Slater was dealt with after an "expensive stolen watch" went missing. It has been claimed by Mark Williams Thomas that he knows for FACT that "it was on a Saturday night" that Jay Slater & "marli boys" (i.e. the same Somailia boys renting the Air B n B in Masca) stole a watch. We know this for FACT because that's what Jay Slater himself bragged & boasted about on social media. We don't know whether Jay Slater stole the watch in partnership with the "Marli boys" or whether, Jay Slater seized the opportunity to steal the watch while with the "Marli boys". But it's FACTUAL that Jay Slater did steal an "expensive stolen watch". Very interestingly, it has also been revealed that the brand of "expensive stolen watch" is NOT a Rolex, admittedly (& again) bragged & boasted by Jay Slater himself. The brand of watch stolen is an Audemars Piguet. Make & model stolen, worth around £50k brand new. It has also been speculated that the owner of the watch is connected politically (so in with the Mayor/s, councillors & corrupt legal system & police), but also (& realistically) connected to the world of drugs. There is also talk of the owner of the Air B n B in Masca also being politically connected on the island of Tenerife. Apparently, he's a former Mayor who lost the position due to corruption. Therefore & considering the above, is it outside the realms of reality that after the owner of the "expensive stolen watch" realised his watch was missing, he very quickly realised that the only people that could have stolen the watch was Jay Slater & the "marli boys". Please note, that's what Jay Slater himself refers the Air B n B guests as on social media posts, "the Marli boys". The owner of the "expensive stolen watch" contacted "the Marli boys" & via the phone interrogated "the Marli boys". In turn, they immediately cracked. Why would they crack under pressure? Unlike Jay Slater, "the Marli boys" have a lot of time & money invested in Tenerife, via a "coffee shop". Obviously, they still want to visit Tenerife & crucially, make money on the island hassle free. So for those reasons, "the Marli boys" agreed with the owner of the stolen watch to double cross Jay Slater & trade him in at their rented Air B n B in the isolated village of Masca. In my opinion, that's why "the Marli boys" travelled all that way, to collect Jay & drive him back all that way, after the "NRG" rave. But When Jay got back to the Air B n B in Masca, he (somehow) picked up that the whole thing was a set up & fled the Air B n B. But by then, it's all too late for Jay. The owner of the "expensive stolen watch" is well & truly on his way (realistically, with others) to hunt Jay Slater down in the Tenerife wilderness, or better put, in (quite literally) his own back yard. In my opinion, the owner of the "expensive stolen watch" is someone that is definitely politically connected on the island of Tenerife. If you think that claim is sensational. The very fact that the brand of watch stolen is an Audemars Piguet, make & model stolen, worth around £50k brand new (or Rolex for that matter) is an outright statement by it's owner that "I'm a very wealthy person" & having that kind of wealth usually carries power & influence. Hence why the blatant half hearted effort to find Jay. Hence why so much silence to the extent that much of what either we hear from the Spanish Authorities, the family or "friends" of Jay or MSM hardly makes any sense. Most stunning of all, how/why did the Spanish Authorities say & from the word "GO" that the two Somalia boys were of "no relevance to their inquiries" when obviously they were. Clearly, it's one BIG cover-up going on until the story dies down because REALISTICALLY, Jay Slater stole from someone that has power & influence on the island of Tenerife. From there, Jay Slater was well & truly out of his depth & has been (realistically) hunted down & dealt, in the Tenerife wilderness of Masca by people that hold power & influence on the island of Tenerife. Hence why & as of yet, no body or not even an item of Jay Slater has yet to be recovered. To get to the bottom of this mystery, the Spanish police & along with Jay's family, need to focus their attention on, (1) exactly who is/was the owner of the "expensive stolen watch" , (2) exactly when & where was it stolen from & (3) exactly what/why was Jay & "the Marli boys" doing at the premises. It is the owner of the "expensive stolen watch" that holds most of the answers to close this mystery. However, I also get the impression that the owner of the "expensive stolen watch" is someone best left alone & not to be upset....

Sounds like drug dealers run the island

This is going to get milked for as much as money as people can make out of it...That is for sure

Bored of this now. The kid was dealing drugs and got in trouble with the drug cartel. There you go summed it up for you all. Dont do drugs kids

He is fish food now

What if he is somewhere watching all this and laughing

I’m finding it hard to feel any sympathy for anyone, from Slater, his parents, friends and all the dodgy mugs involved in this case. Arrest the main players and interview them individually. From there, focus on the guaranteed inconsistencies and you’ll have your answers.

Why would you leave the AB&B with no water, no battery and no plan unless you were forced out?, and then the question is why did the other two men let him leave like that?

Why will Quassim not identify him

The 2 dude's are sketchy he got robbed, and then something went down.

A bit unprofessional that investigator Mark publicly shares his findings from the conversation with Ayub Qassim before talking to the other person. Normally, you would first listen to the other version to identify contradictions.

The British government should ask the Spanish government to allow British police to go there and investigate this. It's clear that something bad has happened the drug dealer has got to be prime suspect. This boy is a British citizen after all.

This GRIFTER ex cop is definitely getting paid for his time in the sunshine. He offers nothing

The two from the air bnb know more than they are saying. Can the not be brought in for questioning in UK

as shaking stevens would say ....green door whats that secret your keeping

he didnt leave the next morning, what is this guy on about ? he left that morning, they didnt leave the party till around 6am got the BnB at around 7am and by 7.30am jay has already apparently decided to take the 11 hour walk back 🤣

Keystone 👮 👮 springs to mind. Prime witnesses allowed to disappear out of the country.🤦🏻‍♂️

BOTH GUYS HAVE VERY GOOD ALIBIS DESPITE WHAT PEOPLE THINK. THE STORY IS VERY WELL NEATLY PUT TOGETHER AND EXPLAINS EVERYTHING LEGALLY. NO1 WILL NEVER FIND JAY'S BODY. EVERYONE INVOLVED IS CONVENIENTLY INNOCENT.

The two men tricked Jay into going to the Airbnb to extract revenge as they knew he had ‘the watch’

Did they search for DNA in the air bnb ??? cause Stevie Wonder could see that this situation didn't make sense from the beginning, A lot of very strange things has happened with this case that doesn't make sense.

Surely the 2nd man can be identified from flight records ?

This Is Crazy! No One Vanishes Into Thin Air ! Im 😮😮 That They Got OUT Of THE Country! Jay Is One Of 11 missing men In Tenerife In 6months! Summit Evil Wrong On The Island!

Drug deal gone bad. I reckon the drug lord dudes took him to the mountain town saying they could get him some stuff. They got there, walked him up a little trail, killed him and took his money.

Something happened to him in that BNB he was scared of something I mean who would walk with no phone charged up and no bottle of water interview these two men again because they left the island pretty quickly

There is a “huge gap” in that chancer’s credibility.

It's all very bizarre and scary.

i hope that they find him , it doesn't matter what his past is , he's a young person and doesn't deserve to die or be kidnapped . his poor family , think about the people you really love , put yourselves in jays family's shoes , how would you feel in the same circumstances ? i have read some horrible comments , be glad that you don't have to go through this , believe me when i say losing a child is the worse pain that you will ever go through in your life time , please have a heart and think about his family

Can't the UK Police continue to interview Johnny, the other guy who was present in the b@b?. Do the pair know more about Jay's disappearance and what else has friend Lucy got to say?

Police chief absolutely paid off.

And the local mayor there seems to be no angel.

because Bribes are real.

Don’t steal Mr Big’s gear. Don’t steal Rolex watches. Don’t brag about doing so on Snapchat

Why did Qassim rent the dingy AirBnB for just 2 or 3 nights? He is reported to run a cannabis cafe for his friend Potter Payper (a drill rapper), so wouldn’t he have a more permanent rental closer to the cafe in Los Cristianos/Playa de las Americas? Or does he simply move from cheap AirBnB to cheap AirBnB?

Goes to club > Meets drug dealer > goes back to his place to get drugs > gets robbed > walks back and gets lost doing so > dies. It's not that deep...

The Somalians are not to be treated light, life is cheap where they come from. He has ripped them and paid the price sad to say and can't believe that police let them leave so soon.

Thanks for staying with this - given all the flack about this case ❤

Best investigative method is A, B, C: Assume nothing, Believe Nobody, Check everything.

This says he met the the 2 guys at the NRG festival but Brad said that they all met and made friends with the 2 guys earlier in the holiday.

That is a hell of a drive, the road up to Masca is so difficult to drive at any decent speed and remember it was dark.

Who is this other man they can't name!?

Young Brit are perfectly safe to travel there but not if they are associated with drug dealers.

Spanish police about as useful as me speculating from my sofa

GO AND CHECK THAT Rented car by that CONVICTED DRUG Dealer , that SOMALI 39 year old man, go CHECK THAT RENTED CAR'S Boot for DNA YEAH , IF YOU Find DNA OF JAY , Then that should be enough to go arrest that SOMALI DRUG guy

Why arent the British Consulate involved .. Since the Civil Guard stopped the search a whole week imo very little has been done by the family .. The GFM donations are there for u to get the right people on the island to find Jay!

Nobody talking about how much of a sort Lucy is

What wrong with this family they have over £50,000 cash and still not paid anyone to search if was my son would of already have a team and paid so they know something we don't ,that why there doing absolutely nothing to find him looks like they want to keep the money for themselves not for finding jay unless he doesn't need to be found or paid searchs

Let's play Devil's Advocate: the person in the blanket holding Jay's lighter is Brad, to create a false record; Jay never made it to that B&B 💯

He's dead due to dehydration. Most likely someone missed him during the search.

There isn’t a Spanish police liaison officer. Well that’s what the foreign office is for. Also they allowed quasim to go free because the police are on the take.

Only scared person goes on steep bushy areas in unknown country!!! He must have been in stress behaving illogical!!! Every normal person would choose to get car lift or bus! Or walking down civilised roud! Not bushes and not 11-hour trail!!!

That lucy knows what's happened

There is a drain cover directly outside the bnb. Didn't the man say he moved his car that morning?

I've gone for the not interested option .

What about the air b+b owner who spoke to him and told him when the bus was coming, then she sees him a bit later on walking fast?

They're not stupid they know he's at th bottom of the sea.

He went because he already knew them AND his so called friends had left him. We already know this. Move on.

Despite his past he is someone son hope he is found

Given he was on a call with his friend whislt lost its pretty obvious he is dead somewhere in that wilderness and just hasnt been found yet

Sick of hearing how angry the parents are! Ironic since they have sat on the gofundme money for almost 3 weeks. When every minute counts you just wouldn't.

Did I read correctly on another vlog, that 11 people have gone missing on Tenerife in just a few months?

I think Jay escaped from the AirBNB and they caught up with him 😢

Something about a lost bag of drugs and Moroccon drug dealers? That’s what I’ve heard from another channel

He's an English drug smuggler

112.000 missing children uk every year.😮

Right so… Why did he go off with 2 random people? Why did he agree to travel that far away from his hotel? Where were his friends he went on the Lads holiday with? Why would you decide to “walk back 11 hours” and what possible reasons would there be for this choice? If in trouble, why didn’t he speak to someone else in the B&B? Are we sure for certain with multiple accounts he was seen leaving the b&b alone.. no one following etc? How do we know he called the girl… where’s the documented proof of the call? If he did call the girl, how do we know it wasn’t a ploy or he was being forced into it? Have we entirely ruled out Suic***? Have we been able to indefinitely rule out Murd3r? I can keep going…

No police force will continue a search past a 'reasonable' time-period that a person can be found, they'll probably keep a minimal number of officers on the case on a part-time basis as there's no suspicion of foul play. He's not the only person to go missing on the island and they can only do so much. It'll be down to volunteers and goodwill from that point onwards to continue the search.

I find it very telling how they write in the description "delivers breaking news LATEST GOSSIP ect.", so how can we believe anything they are saying??

Wrong un by all acounts

Signs of a struggle

What happened at the air bnb He got bummed until his arse was as baggy as a clowns pocket 😂

Are we assuming the photographs we see of him at the airbnb are of that night/ morning? Perhaps he knew the men well and had been there before and they were not strangers to him. Perhaps he never made it to that property at that particular time. So that part is a red herring.

I'm just amazed that as a convicted drug dealer you get through customs and travel around freely! No Border control for these people? Can someone do a documentary on getting through the Border Authority with a known criminal record and no questions 🤣🤣🤣

Who is the second man and why does no one know his name or anything about him??

The 2 men and the lass done it so obvious

Did they spray Luminol in the AB&B since it was newly painted? Were the owners aware of the Drug Dealer that rented the AB&B and was it possibly painted because a crime happened there? Is everyone being quiet on the island because they are scared of these drug dealers? I’m afraid they drugged Jay, harmed him and sadly he’s missing. Then these evil men took off.

I live in southern Spain. In 2002 my eleven roomed houses in the Campo was burnt to ashes by my ex Spanish boyfriend. It was attempted murder and arson. Deliberately done because I left him after two years of horrific abuse and stalking and threats to my life. He's father was a retired ex chief of malaga police at the time. Everyone knows he burnt my home down. Everyone and witnesses . They were all shut up or threatened to loose their jobs and worse. We lost everything even my beloved dog. We were not insured left homeless with ZERO help. They did not give a damn about me and my little girl. I became a self taught artist to survive having lost everything my depression was horrific and it took me ten years to get over that trauma and loss. I have lived here 23 years with zero help. I now live in a dangerous uninhabitable house rented to me initially by a crook landlord and he's wife. Now I'm in a very bad situation and threatened with eviction. The police are corrupt. Protect their own and they never even investigated what he did at daddy's orders, nor did it go to the high court for serious crimes but was kept hushed up in Ronda court. They would not allow me to speak not an interpreter. They asked him only one question. Did you do it which he replied No..That was it. Witnesses were not brought in, nothing. That is my experience of Spain. Now once again I'm facing homelessness and zero help so I will be in the street..European laws are not followed in Spain unless it suits them to do so. He should have got twenty years in prison but instead was never convicted. I was not insured nor compensated.I feel abandoned completely and fear for my future. Carmen Bonnici abstract artist

Is the Rolex/AG watch a red herring. It has been suggested that Rolex is slang for cocaine or ecstacy. Forget the watch angle. It is bs

They were allowed to leave because you can't legally infringe on someone's right to free movement unless they are established suspects. They gave their statements and how to be contacted for further. That's the most you can legally ask from witnesses which is what they were at that point. I think there is much more to what went on in the Airbnb and with his idiot friends , but a hunch is not the same as proof.

The Sun are milking this

Everyone is invested in this story now so I hope there's closure soon. It's definitely a mystery. Didn't the Airbnb owner say she drove past him walking? Therefore, either she's lying about seeing him or mistaken identity? Either he didn't leave that Airbnb because something happened to him, he's in hiding somewhere? he fell somewhere? or he collapsed somewhere and has yet to be found. I don't know what to believe with so many stories. I'm not sure that I believe what Lucy said about her conversation with him though.

Lucy's hiding something!

If you don’t find someone in the first 12 hours the likely situation is that the person is no longer alive.

Stop blaming the Spanish police for what he did. He was up to no good when he got involved with these two drug dealers. Didn’t he steal drugs too? Take your own responsibility and stop creating conspiracies against the Spanish.

Ofelia was apparently the last person to see Jay, not the Airbnb guys.

Why is this one case getting so much attention. He wasn't a very good person. Involved with drugs and other criminal issues. Loads of other good people are still missing in holiday resorts. Their cases don't get a mention. While everyone is talking about this drug dealer going missing.

I would like to know did anything come of the boat parked at the harbour, could Jay have been taken there???

Thought they were paying for rescue team to comeover with go fundme?

The dodgy underbelly of all the holiday resorts we love to visit.

I'm sorry but this whole story stinks to high heaven.

I have three questions! If he left that house hungry why did he not drop into the cafe eat and charge his phone? Two where was the photo taken of him and lucy? Three ; why as the person who allededly had his phone stolen not come forward? So you see at the minute only the men and lucy knew his location!

All these stories about jay slater confusing. If he has 1% battery and manage to call 2 of his friends one in uk and then lucy law when 1% battery wouldn't last long if they have a 5 or 10 minute call so how can he go google map? I think it's strange jay went missing 17th june and two days later lucy law created gofundme page and manage to get £50,000 what's that for they haven't found his body and he isn't dead so whats it for🤔 is it to clear his debt with the drug dealer. Every interview that jay slater so called friend lucy law has she has her back towards the camera. If someone is camera shy they wouldn't put pictures of themselves or with a friend on social media. I think lucy law knows them two guys and done something to jay slater and the two guys are lying to the police.

Completely baffling
