Timeline of events: 25/10/2016 - Josh crossed the railway crossing at 08:34, straight over the crossroads down Copeland drive towards the canal at 08:38 (both confirmed by CCTV).
Josh made his sandwiches for work the night before but did not take them with him. He was due in for work at 08:30 and was generally the first to arrive. He was not seen at the crossings until 08:34. Josh's phone has been switched off since 08:03 and is untraceable. His bank account has not been accessed. Josh purchased a euthanasia drug online, this was delivered on Monday 24.10.2016.
