Richard Bentley, a 55-year-old male reported missing in November last year, was last seen on November 12 in the Townsend area of Dorset, and it was four days before his reported missing. Police believe a body could be found in the Mim Eston Pond around Chaseside, norrisfield, eligible for the “unexplained” death. This case has just been updated, with further investigation underway.
The investigation into the ‘unexplained’ death has been launched, with detectives from Dorset Police pursuing a cordon near the pond. Progress has been made, and a statement from the police gang confirms the body was found near Chaseside. Additionally, previous appeals in efforts to locate Richard Bentley have been discussed and extended.
Dorset Police have issued a statement, sharing details of their investigation and emphasizing the need for information regarding Bentley’s disappearance. As part of their efforts, police have secured an authority number (552401766) for the pond area and a contact phone number. When the body was last checked, no suspicious activity was observed. These updates are ongoing, and contacts are being sought to assist in any further investigative efforts.
Miranda Page, Bentley’s mother, made a heartfelt appeal to his family four months ago to find him. She expressed the hope that they would find him soon. Police remain involved in the case, and contact information has been shared to ensure the safety and well-being of all involved. For more details, including updates on Bentley’s next of kin, contact Dorset Police at their website or call an officer. Help is available through Crimestoppers, an independent charity, for those in need.
