The Craig Mallon Facebook appeal, which has reached millions of people throughout the world, continues to generate awareness and provide detailed information about the progress of the appeal.

There have been some very touching, supportive and caring comments added to the Facebook appeal site, which means a lot to Craig’s family. These comments also illustrate the level of concern that no person has been traced for killing him.

The vital piece of information about who killed Craig has still not been received. However, there has been worthwhile information supplied to the appeal’s dedicated email address which has been shared with the Spanish authorities.

People who remembered Craig and his friends in Rockefellers Disco Bar have also come forward with information, which is helping to piece together the events prior to Craig’s death.

For example, Angela Shaw, who was with seven friends from the UK in the resort, contacted the appeal to say:

 “My friends and I were in Rockefellers that night and had left before Craig died, however, we contacted Craig’s appeal as we understand how small bits of information could assist the bigger picture.

We have given some information which on the face of it may not seem important, but will assist in piecing together the events that night and maybe help identify other potential people like us.

Please, as Antoinette said on the appeal site, if you were in Rockefellers or the area where Craig died, please message the appeal site or contact the confidential email address. There must be loads of people who have some information. Please do what we did and come forward.”

There will be lots of similar people to Angela and her friends, who hopefully will read this site and get in touch.

Every small piece of information is relevant to assist the investigation.
