I’m so confused, they don’t have a body or a murder weapon, so how can they charge him for murder, they have nothing to prove she’s dead, Lauren could be a beach in Spain for all we know

[@DaveRL]

When a murder case lacks the victim's body, prosecutors must rely on other forms of evidence to establish guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. This may include: 1. **Circumstantial Evidence**: Such as witness testimonies placing the victim and accused together before the disappearance, or evidence indicating the victim's sudden disappearance under suspicious circumstances. 2. **Forensic Evidence**: This can include DNA evidence, bloodstains, or other physical evidence linking the accused to the crime scene or suggesting foul play. 3. **Motive**: Demonstrating that the accused had a motive to harm or kill the victim, such as financial gain, jealousy, or revenge. 4. **Behavior of the Accused**: Any suspicious behavior exhibited by the accused before, during, or after the disappearance, such as attempts to cover up the crime or inconsistent statements. By presenting a combination of these factors and building a compelling narrative, prosecutors can still secure a conviction even without the victim's body.

Real police do the exact same they use ppl past crimes on them all the time in new cases even though they served time for those past crimes.

[@brettthomson-hunter1996]

​@@fionarose7831If the police had Lauren's body, then they would have reports from the pathologist that might support their theory that Lauren was murdered and that Roy was responsible for the crime, so therefore, they would've had a stronger argument, but in the absence of her body, how will the police be able to establish their argument in order to secure his conviction?

[@allanross611]

Justin did all that stuff to Daisey , and the police are " we don't have enough to charge him " Roy cleans an apartment and provides the reason ( Evelyn ask him to ) and he gets charged. BTW,Evelyn clean your own damn sub let.

Wow, this doesn't make any sense. Why would they suspect that Roy killed Lauren (which in this case, she is not dead), I mean there was no evidence that he attacked her. I think Swain is the worst DS ever! I mean she brought up an old case from 10 years ago, and it has been resolved since then. She doesn't do her job properly. She didn't help Amy when she was raped by Aaron last year. She didn't arrest Stephen Reid who was close of escaping Weatherfield, and now they are putting the blame onto Roy. I hope people can agree with me on this!

[@brettthomson-hunter1996]

The police haven't even found Lauren's body otherwise they would've had reports from the pathologist that might support their theory but they don't have any of the required evidence for there to be a conviction.
