Police Call Off Search for Missing Jay Slater | This Morning 

If my son went missing in the Arctic I'd still be there going through every inch of ice!! Someings not right here 🤔

They can’t find him because he’s not there and the police know it

Something don't ring true with this case

anyone who gave them money, you're gullible af

Maybe if family and friends told true from day 1 he might have been found 🤔 good or bad news

We can’t expect them to continue to search. How long would the uk search for a Spaniard in the highlands I wonder

It's interesting seeing the reactions to these missing person's cases. With Michael Mosley, there was widespread concern, a great search followed by an outpouring of public grief, he was a man who will be remembered very fondly by many due to his work as a public doctor, his kind demeanor and goodness as a married family man. But with Jay Slater, once people found out about his past the public perception rapidly turned from him being a likeable and relatable youth who got lost after a night out in a foriegn country, to this teenage antisocial hoodlum with a violent criminal past, a blight on his local community (and who never properly repented for his actions) and who travelled to another country to rave, take drugs and possibly commit other crimes on their turf. And so angered are people by this (on both sides!), that the reaction by many to the search being called off so early can pretty much be summed up as "Good riddance", with many people being more sympathetic to the locals put through this drama than the family who've lost a son. And people distrust and dislike the missing mans family not just because of the mindset that to produce such an individual he must have been raised by amoral people, but various actions on their part have worsened the lack of trust, i.e. the friend not revealing potentially crucial information until almost 2 weeks afterwards, to the family not actively searching for him themselves (and apparently being rude to locals). They say that all human life is equal, but I think that nobody actually views it that way in real life, with how someone choosing to conduct their life very much affecting others perception not just of their value to society, but as a human being (full stop). I hope that the body is found soon (and lets face it, if he did get lost in the wilderness then we probably are looking at a body and not a survivor at this point) and that this all turns out to be a tragic accident rather than something far more sketchy which happened because of the man's actions (or his friends or families actions), because not only would the latter cement their reputation as terrible no-good people potentially for the rest of their lives (which will also be a burden & a curse that their future children may have to carry & undo too), but also harm the reputation of British tourists as a whole. This is all a very sobering lesson that if you want people to value your life, then you need live like a decent human being.

TV presenters are so naïve it makes you weep, hark at them barking up the wrong tree, pitiful really

Media: People are not allowed to form their own opinion only we are

Wouldn't the bus have passed him multiple times during that 11 hours 😂

One big scam.

Scam mother is after money

It’s a big scam

so the police have stopped the search in the hills, they are now searching the bars for someone living it up on 36k drinking money

If the family love him as much as they say? They can use that £44,000 they've conned out if the good hearted people of the UK and pay for a search and rescue team themselves...

Lucy says 1% battery but face times his mate later on , doesn't add up.

He's being hidden until enough money is raised by GO FUND ME 😂

No one cares what u have to say whoever random Paul is , people don’t want to risk their lives looking for a drugged up teenager who should have been locked up for a very bad crime ! The whole thing smells like lies

Any reasonable person understands that two weeks of searching is more than enough. The Garda can’t continue forever. It is just an unfortunate situation - and such things happen in life.

Why didn't the two men Jay was staying with offer him a lift back to his hotel I wonder?

Hats off to Paul for helping 😊

If the mother doesnt use that 40k to hire people to look there then its fishy af most likely a runaround

Thought money was gonna go towards helping resue efforts yeah right. Funny how the fund came out at 36 thousand. Could have gone alot more. Pay of for missing drugs etc. He could have had 2 phones. If i go missing ill be working or in pub. so dont sent a fake fund account for me. Free holidays for all. Lucy is a right wrong one european jet setter lol.

They should start searching for the reason he wasn’t sent to jail years ago

Maybe the mum could use some of that 40 grand to hire some help.

I’ve always wondered why sniffer dogs don’t seem to be any good in this sort of thing 🤔 unless he just isn’t there

When they asked for volunteers very few turned up not even the family! How do they expect the authorities to search if the family didnt !!!

Search called off. Police have probably concluded, if Lucy's 'business associates' have taken Jay, not even Liam Neeson is gonna find him...

They are not mentioning that this is a HUGE pay day for Down The Rapids as he's made well over 50K on his Tik Tok from being out there. The whole thing is sus.

They have 40k to pay for a search

I'm probably being very naive here. Why did he go with those two men into the moutains?

If what Lucy said is true, and he called her at 830am, having only walked 30 mins from the airbnb, cut his leg, was thirsty and hungover/on a come down.. surely he wouldnt of gotten that far.. it all smells bad to me and nothing adds up.. really bizarre, I do hope the family can get some closure, I have a feeling its going to go cold...

There was no need for the friend off Jay to quickly set up a fundraising account over the internet when we all know the police services in Tenerife is free, I believe £45,000 has been raised from the internet a fun raising account was set up two quickly people will have to come to their own conclusion

Paul has been super critical of the Spanish Police but lets face it, the lad won't be alive now if he's still out there, and the entire search seems to be based around pings from his phone, while the dogs haven't picked up any trace of it....Sorry , not keen on Paul, think he's just doing this for his own publicity...!

If he had been sent to jail, like he should of been, he would still be alive.

Why can't they simply grasp that he could've only travelled so far in the area, they haven't found him, and this tells me that foul play is involved here.

I smell a rat.

"The family are amazing, you can't discredit them in any way" Nonsence, it's easy to tell from their interviews they clearly have some idea of what happened and are withholing information.. The mother didn't make eye contact with the camera and the father didn't take his sungalsses off.

Let the family start looking 😅

If it's so dangerous why were they asking for random volunteers?

Coverup

How much does the go fund me have to get to before he miraculously appears.

Why didnt the family put 10k on the table for the volunteers/rescuers? And maybe more people would have turned out, And why not offer the other 30k for the safe return of jay? As a reward, an incentive for some information, the family should do something, atleast.

There’s a missing boy called Jack Sullivan in Bristol since March and no coverage ?? Why??

just because the search has stopped doesn't mean they are not still investigating

Aw hope they find him. Plz god. The poor family.

Mother seems to have found time out to have her nails done. Now there will be a police investigation into the family.

What goes around………

Lucy did the last go fund me for other kid that went missing over there It’s over money he’s on run in hiding

I live near Masca and he ain’t here. The key to this mystery is Lucy.who like Jay is a wrong un.

40k+ 😂😂🤣🤣 il need to try this one next year pay off my mortgage..

Big respect to Paul. Top guy!

From the very start, it doesn't look genuine. You don't wait until you have 1% battery remaining before you call for help.

How long are they supposed to search. They have covered the areas. He has drug connections he could be anywhere.

The family are enjoying an all expenses paid holiday with friends,something VERY dodgey going on

I don’t think he entered the mountain range at all … I think whatever happened to him happened on the road .😮

They can’t search indefinitely

Something just doesnt add up, the mother headed for the nearest nail bar after she got off the plane, she was photographed going in .

Whom would want to walk 40km to get back to their apartment in a strange country it would work out about 10 hours to complete. I honestly believe it's a total scam

He will turn up in a few days in a bar , hotel or police station and say he had been kept against his will and blindfolded 24 hours a day . He will say a car took him to a track just outside town but he doesn’t know where he was , what they looked like and what the car was . Amen 🙏🏻

Why did he go out there. So he could insert himself into the story and get some publicity.

Lucy is involved How did she find the Airbnb so easily and spoke to the 2 guys so quickly. Why did she leave early is it an alibi... I left early because I was tired. Why didnt she go straight away once she had his location and wait to report it to the police. Maybe her and the friend Brad are an item and they wanted to get rid of Jay. All the details he is thirsty, cut his leg on a cactus in case they find blood etc. Then setup a go fund me page like the concerned friend...

This morning we walked the path from cruz de hilda to santiago del teide 11km and found nothing

Theirs a saying isn't it the last person to see you alive ?

Mother dosent need to search but show her face up there and interview people loosing the case

Do you know how many people vanish what makes him so special to get national attention..... from what I hear he ain't no saint.....the all pay a heavy price for the life we choose ⚔️

Respect for Paul 👍👍👍

They have 40,000 to spend now,and now the hotels where they are staying want them to start paying, his best mate is the brother of the lad he was involved with beating up that Tom. It is just abit of a mystery and dodgy case. And his dad basically was saying that he doesnt want uk police or anyone to get involved, that Jays mum rules the place and whatever she says everyone does, maybe drugs too

Let's see if they use the go fund money to look for their son

Really? Because we heard this over 20 hours ago from you tubers. Smh mainstream media is so lame. Just quit. All of you. You've been bested over and over😂😂

Lucy ain’t telling the truth after the videos I seen and heard is that he was stabbed and she knows by who and was behind it

Mother accepts search has ended by all authorities. Yet her £42,000K was supposed to go towards the search!! So what's she doing with all that money now. Just stating facts.

Just an observation, Is anyone keeping an eye out for the bird life on the island? Are there Buzzards, Vultures, even crows over there, that are usually very good at finding anything that has passed away. Buzzards in particular would circle round in the sky if they can find something to eat.

If he is found hiding out, all that money raised should be returned and the Spanish police give them an invoice for the search teams for wasting police resources

No one can search forever. It's amazing they searched for so long.

Two weeks is a lot of searching in that terrain to expect another week is a nightmare for the searchers and after 1 maybe 2 days let’s face it it’s a recovery mission after that!

Why should the Spanish pick up this tax bill for a search for a dodgy criminal? You want him found, you pay up front, every day!

Just reminds me of the Nicola Bulley case. A complete mystery is an understatement. Hope he gets found and his family gets the closure they fully need and deserve

He was a wrongun, stop wasting money on him

What a harrowing situation. I really hoped Jay would be found. It's absolutely agonising for his family and all who love him. My dad went missing for only 2 days. Unbearable. Sadly, he had gotten into difficulty in familiar mountainous terrain. He was found but it was too late.

About money Lucy knows ?!!!!!!!

Weres all the money gone on go fund me

Called it off! There are more sensible lost children lost anywhere who have been kidnapped. This is a responsible young man. He is not a child anymore. 48 hours to 2 weeks. Recovery and Investigation is down to the family, friends and the public gofund money. I could understand if it is under 18 years old.

Pretty obvious...He's not there!...he's not fallen away from the road, he would have been found by now, he wouldnt have fallen far , and only s few places he would have tried to short cut the road...nope he's not anywhere near there...he may have been taken, by people in a car,at the side of the road...or maybe he's holed up somewhere...he is a dodgy man!....but 1 things for sure...he is not in that location

I wounder what else has been going on or in the island while 90% of the police have been looking for him 🤷‍♂️

Well now the Spainish police have withdrawn their search it's time to dip into the GFM to pay profession search team

Perhaps the family can pay private investigators to search from monies of the Go Fund Me ?????????????

Good man, there’s a young lad out there missing. He’s got a mum a dad and a sibling,

Check mobile data see who he spoke to around the time and when his phone died

Debbie was definitely not tearing her hair out. First thing she did was have her hair and nails done at the salon

Lies was never in the mountains apparently it's the two in the air b and b and Lucy and brad it will come out

They should have stopped 10 days ago😊

God bless Paul.. prayers for the family and Jay 🙏🙏🙏

The mother should take that gofundme money pay for others people to do it. There's organisations/people who they could fly out. Some of these people are volunteers and charities so they're resource's are limited.

Very SORRY but all this event d oes not seem to 'stand up' to scruitiny ? It would appear that the Various Observations and 'last seen by' just dont add up to me ,

Isn’t that is what the go fund me funds are for, a private search party?

Where's the GFM money ??? And what about video of him limping on the beach and the girls voice on the clip saying you stabbed him...all a bit sus

What a wonderful guy Paul is 💪special chap!

Camilla should go over there and have a look for him

Good
