    Thoughts with Rachel’s family as we secured the conviction of Keith Hall relentlessly pursue offenders and we do not give up. Ever. My thanks to the whole investigation team, Home Office (for grant) and incredible dignity shown by Rachel’s family

    This is Rachel Wilson. Rachel went missing in 2002, when she was 19. Her body was found near to Coulby Newham in 2012. Rachel was loved and cared for by her family, who have appealed to the public for help and information over the last 19 years.
