List of unsolved murders in the United Kingdom (2000–present)

|Mirfield, a 34-year-old car dealer, was shot in his car in Gipton, Leeds, on 15 March 2000 while trying to drive away from a gunman. A man was prosecuted for Mirfield's murder, but his trial ended early due to reservations about the reliability of the two main witnesses.{{Cite web|title=Craig Mirfield|url=http://www.unsolved-murders.co.uk/murder-content.php?key=4338|website=Unsolved Murders|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211126202730/http://www.unsolved-murders.co.uk/murder-content.php?key=4338|archive-date=26 November 2021|access-date=26 November 2021}}

|Sarah Benford

|Body not found

|14-year-old Benford vanished in April 2000 and although her body has never been found, her disappearance is being treated as a murder. Benford was described by police as a "troubled teenager"; she was in care and ran away from Welford House children's home in Welford Road, Northampton on 4 April. She visited her mother in Kettering on 6 April and there were various other sightings of her in Kettering that day. In 2003, a number of people were arrested and properties were searched, but then the investigation stalled. In 2016, police searched woods near Warkton in Northamptonshire – an area known to have been used by acquaintances of Benford for storing stolen goods and other items.{{Cite web|title=Sarah Benford murder: Kettering woods searched for body after 16 years|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-northamptonshire-35810396|website=BBC News|date=15 March 2016|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201008015720/https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-northamptonshire-35810396|archive-date=8 October 2020|access-date=30 November 2019}}

|Cheryll Grover

|Newbury, Berkshire

|Grover, 21, was last seen alive by a visitor to her home on Audley Close, Turnpike, Newbury, at 10:30 p.m. on Friday 12 May 2000. She spoke to a friend on the telephone at 2:35 a.m. on Saturday 13 May, but efforts made by her estranged husband to contact her later that same day came to nothing. Concerned for Grover's welfare, he and his mother visited Grover's home at 3:30 p.m. and he climbed the drainpipe to reach the first floor bedroom window. Inside, Grover was found dead in her bedroom, having been strangled with a dressing gown cord. Police suspected that she had been selling drugs from her home and an appeal led to a number of people coming forward. A 32-year-old man was arrested but released without charge.{{Cite news|title=Police appeal to drug users to help solve mum's murder|work=Newbury Weekly News|date=18 May 2000}}{{Cite news|title=Mum's murder: police launch fresh appeal for witnesses|work=Newbury Weekly News|date=25 May 2000}} Although Grover's death was investigated as a murder, the inquest returned an open verdict.

|Karen Chandler

|Salisbury Plain, Wiltshire

|A cause of death could not be established for 40-year-old Chandler because her car was set alight with her body inside. Police charged a man in his 60s with her murder. At the trial, the prosecution alleged that he killed Chandler because he was infatuated with her but saw no chance of a relationship developing. The man acknowledged that he was riding his bicycle on Salisbury Plain on the day she disappeared (20 June 2000) but denied any involvement in her death. With the evidence against him being entirely circumstantial, the jury found him not guilty.{{Cite news|title=Who did kill Karen Chandler?|url=https://www.gazetteandherald.co.uk/news/7367125.who-did-kill-karen-chandler/|work=Gazette & Herald|date=1 November 2001|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200817215035/https://www.gazetteandherald.co.uk/news/7367125.who-did-kill-karen-chandler/|archive-date=17 August 2020|access-date=4 August 2020}}

|Scott, a 47-year-old self-employed odd job man, disappeared in suspicious circumstances. He left his brother's house in Wealdstone (north west London) in his white Ford Transit van after doing some DIY. Two weeks later his van was found abandoned, and on 28 April 2002 a man phoned one of Scott's brothers from South Harrow tube station in a "menacing" call. Police believed the call to be significant to the investigation. The Scott case and footage of the caller at South Harrow station featured on Crimewatch in April 2014, which showed the individual coming back to the phone box moments later.

|Barrington was pushed into a brick pillar and received a fatal blow to the head or chest as he and some friends were returning to a New Year's Eve party, although it was not witnessed by his companions. The friends claimed that they and Barrington were first set upon by another group of youths after leaving the party to get some tobacco from his home, and that they took a rake, a copper pipe and a baseball bat from there too in case they needed them to defend themselves whilst heading back. The death of 17-year-old Barrington sparked a murder inquiry, but the police later decided that because he was carrying the rake when assaulted, the inquiry would have to be dropped. His inquest, however, found that he was unlawfully killed nonetheless.{{Cite web|title=Teenager killed in street fight|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/norfolk/3667343.stm|website=BBC News|date=28 April 2004|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170205225202/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/norfolk/3667343.stm|archive-date=5 February 2017|access-date=4 September 2022}}{{Cite web|title=Youth was 'unlawfully killed'|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/norfolk/3669937.stm|website=BBC News|date=29 April 2004|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220904180752/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/norfolk/3669937.stm|archive-date=4 September 2022|access-date=4 September 2022}}{{Cite web|title=Unsolved murders and suspicious deaths in Norfolk|url=https://www.suffolk.police.uk/sites/suffolk/files/002294-18_-_data.xlsx|website=Suffolk Constabulary|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230720221627/https://www.suffolk.police.uk/sites/suffolk/files/002294-18_-_data.xlsx|archive-date=20 July 2023|access-date=20 July 2023}}

Because a child sex abuser who was also from Australia and had also recently come to the UK bore a strong resemblance to Thompson, it was believed that the murder might have been a case of mistaken identity.{{Cite web|title='Mistaken identity' murder clue|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/4165582.stm|website=BBC News|date=19 August 2005|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240519184038/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/london/4165582.stm|archive-date=19 May 2024|access-date=19 May 2024}}

|Lucy Hargreaves

|Three masked men armed with a sawn-off shotgun forced their way into 22-year-old Hargreaves's house on Lambourne Road, Walton, on 3 August 2005 while she was asleep on the living room sofa. She was then shot twice in the abdomen and once in the head at point-blank range before petrol was poured at various locations downstairs and ignited. Hargreaves's boyfriend, who it is thought might have been the intended target, escaped from the burning property by jumping with the couple's youngest daughter from an upstairs window. They were asleep upstairs when the perpetrators gained access.{{Cite web|last=Traynor|first=Luke|title=A young mum was shot dead on the sofa as her kids slept upstairs.

|James Tomlin

|Shipley, West Yorkshire

|36-year-old Tomlin went into cardiac arrest and died during the early hours of 15 August after jumping from a bedroom window at his home in Windhill to escape a fire that began when kerosene was poured through the letterbox and ignited. However, it was not heart failure or the fall that caused his death, but the inhaling of smoke and poisonous gasses. Also inside the property were Tomlin's pregnant 26-year-old partner and their two sons, who all escaped and survived. Because the arson attack was a seemingly motiveless crime against a family with no criminal ties, detectives considered it a possibility that the property was not the intended target.{{Cite web|last=Wright|first=Steve|title=Detectives appeal for clues over unsolved arson murder|url=https://www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/news/13599270.detectives-appeal-for-clues-over-unsolved-arson-murder/|website=Telegraph & Argus|date=15 August 2015|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230613200054/https://www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/news/13599270.detectives-appeal-for-clues-over-unsolved-arson-murder/|archive-date=13 June 2023|access-date=13 June 2023}}

Jackson's brother was shot too but survived, and the girlfriend of this brother, who was likewise at the flat that day, hid from the gunmen and was not found by them. Four men were charged with murder in 2011. Two of the suspects were identical twins, with one alleged to have been one of the shooters and the other to have acted as a lookout, and the police tried to train witnesses to tell them apart by creating sets of virtual twins for those witnesses to study – a measure that a judge found "intelligent and imaginative" but "ultimately deficient", prompting him to throw the case out.{{Cite web|title=Unsolved Murders in London: 2006|url=https://www.murdermap.co.uk/unsolved-murders/unsolved-murders-london-2006-police/|website=murdermap.co.uk|date=28 January 2007|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240810224227/https://www.murdermap.co.uk/unsolved-murders/unsolved-murders-london-2006-police/|archive-date=10 August 2024|access-date=10 August 2024}}

|Brentford, London

|37-year-old Tully died and another man and a Staffordshire bull terrier were wounded when two men burst into the Brentford flat they were in on 25 January 2007 and sprayed it with bullets from a submachine gun for about three minutes. A nearby CCTV camera captured the gunmen leaving the scene, but the footage was of very poor quality. The shooting was believed to have been part of a turf war between an established drug-dealing gang and one trying to move in on its territory. Tully's background suggested he was not an intended target but was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time.{{Cite web|title=Dean Tully murder: new suspect|url=https://www.mylondon.news/news/local-news/dean-tully-murder-new-suspect-6011899|website=MyLondon|date=23 January 2009|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240816223942/https://www.mylondon.news/news/local-news/dean-tully-murder-new-suspect-6011899.amp|archive-date=16 August 2024|access-date=16 August 2024}}{{Cite web|title=Dean Tully police no closer to arresting killer|url=https://www.mylondon.news/news/local-news/dean-tully-police-no-closer-6007614|website=MyLondon|date=9 June 2009|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240816223945/https://www.mylondon.news/news/local-news/dean-tully-police-no-closer-6007614.amp|archive-date=16 August 2024|access-date=16 August 2024}}

|When Chadwick, a 20-year-old father-of-one, was at his sister's house in Harehills on 24 June 2008, a woman knocked on the door and asked for "Michelle". The woman, described as being in her late 20s and around {{convert|5|ft|5|in}} tall with dark brown hair, dark eyes and olive skin, then knocked again, whereupon three men tried to force their way in. Chadwick was shot in the ensuing struggle, possibly in a case of mistaken identity, and died two days later in hospital.

Nobody has been brought to justice for Chadwick's murder, despite a reconstruction on Crimewatch, extensive appeals and a £10,000 reward.{{Cite web|title=Appeal decade after Adam Chadwick shot dead in Leeds|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-44566590|website=BBC News|date=24 June 2018|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190423000519/https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-leeds-44566590|archive-date=23 April 2019|access-date=28 January 2019}}{{Cite web|last=Morris|first=Georgina|title=Adam Chadwick murder: Family take to Leeds streets in search for justice|url=https://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/news/crime/adam-chadwick-murder-family-take-to-leeds-streets-in-search-for-justice-1-9221807|website=Yorkshire Evening Post|date=25 June 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180710061119/https://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/news/crime/adam-chadwick-murder-family-take-to-leeds-streets-in-search-for-justice-1-9221807|archive-date=10 July 2018|access-date=28 January 2019}}

A 41-year-old swimming instructor who worked with him at a leisure centre was charged with his murder later that month. It was alleged at trial that he began plotting to kill Van Lill after they fell out whilst on holiday in Van Lill's native South Africa in 2006, with the prosecution also drawing attention to a list found at the defendant's home of methods to kill and ways to get rid of evidence and the body following a killing – a list he maintained was just fantasy and did not contain anything he intended to put into practice. The defence in turn drew attention to the failure of forensic scientists to link him to Van Lill's disappearance, and after more than 12 hours of deliberation, the jury cleared him.{{Cite web\|last=Casey\|first=Gemma\|title=Wiltshire man charged with murder of fitness instructor\|url=https://www.wiltsglosstandard.co.uk/news/5074948.wiltshire-man-charged-with-murder-of-fitness-instructor/\|website=Wilts and Gloucestershire Standard\|date=22 March 2010\|url-status=live\|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220927180400/https://www.wiltsglosstandard.co.uk/news/5074948.wiltshire-man-charged-with-murder-of-fitness-instructor/\|archive-date=27 September 2022\|access-date=27 September 2022}}{{Cite web\|last=Ware\|first=Joe\|title=Donavan trial: Sugden needed to be the 'Moriarty of Chippenham'\|url=https://www.gazetteandherald.co.uk/news/8953034.donavan-trial-sugden-needed-to-be-the-moriarty-of-chippenham/\|website=Gazette & Herald\|date=4 April 2011\|url-status=live\|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220927180735/https://www.gazetteandherald.co.uk/news/8953034.donavan-trial-sugden-needed-to-be-the-moriarty-of-chippenham/\|archive-date=27 September 2022\|access-date=27 September 2022}}{{Cite web\|title=Man not guilty of murdering missing Donavan Van Lill\|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-wiltshire-12998773\|website=BBC News\|date=8 April 2011\|url-status=live\|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110514005826/https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-wiltshire-12998773\|archive-date=14 May 2011\|access-date=27 September 2022}}

It was alleged at trial that he began plotting to kill Van Lill after they fell out whilst on holiday in Van Lill's native South Africa in 2006, with the prosecution also drawing attention to a list found at the defendant's home of methods to kill and ways to get rid of evidence and the body following a killing – a list he maintained was just fantasy and did not contain anything he intended to put into practice. The defence in turn drew attention to the failure of forensic scientists to link him to Van Lill's disappearance, and after more than 12 hours of deliberation, the jury cleared him.{{Cite web|last=Casey|first=Gemma|title=Wiltshire man charged with murder of fitness instructor|url=https://www.wiltsglosstandard.co.uk/news/5074948.wiltshire-man-charged-with-murder-of-fitness-instructor/|website=Wilts and Gloucestershire Standard|date=22 March 2010|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220927180400/https://www.wiltsglosstandard.co.uk/news/5074948.wiltshire-man-charged-with-murder-of-fitness-instructor/|archive-date=27 September 2022|access-date=27 September 2022}}{{Cite web|last=Ware|first=Joe|title=Donavan trial: Sugden needed to be the 'Moriarty of Chippenham'|url=https://www.gazetteandherald.co.uk/news/8953034.donavan-trial-sugden-needed-to-be-the-moriarty-of-chippenham/|website=Gazette & Herald|date=4 April 2011|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220927180735/https://www.gazetteandherald.co.uk/news/8953034.donavan-trial-sugden-needed-to-be-the-moriarty-of-chippenham/|archive-date=27 September 2022|access-date=27 September 2022}}{{Cite web|title=Man not guilty of murdering missing Donavan Van Lill|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-wiltshire-12998773|website=BBC News|date=8 April 2011|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110514005826/https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-wiltshire-12998773|archive-date=14 May 2011|access-date=27 September 2022}}
