His family are all extremely worried so please report any sightings or information

My DS is 16 today. I cannot imagine how his family feel. Hoping for a good outcome.

I live in Aberdeenshire. They are still searching the woods and waters of scratched estate for Liam. There is still not further trace of him. I’ve heard the children from his Academy are receiving counselling support. It’s just so sad, everywhere we go we see his Missing Posters up.

It’s just so strange too.

*Crathes Estate

I’m feeling terrible about this news. Is there a back story? Had he had an argument at home or with friends? Are they thinking he might of gone further afield? I’m guessing not if they are concentrating their search in local areas. I’m hoping there could be a positive outcome despite the length of time.

It's strange there's been nothing on the news, his friends and family must be distraught 🤞🏻

still haven't found this boy. he's the same age as DS.
A big , tall lad like Liam can't just disappear. Praying they find him soon. Please keep sharing.

I think his Mum told the press that he bought a single ticket not a return.

Still no news. It's shocking really that he's just gone and there is no sign.

The number of people that disappear like this is shocking. Given how much CCTV we have in the UK, it’s surprising.

Let’s keep hoping he’s somewhere safe and warm and just too worried about getting in trouble over all of this to face up to coming back just yet. Hopefully, if that’s the case, he’ll realise he’s not in trouble and everyone just wants him home safe x

Yes, hoping for some good news as soon as possible.

His family has been very quiet?

They’ve made statements.

Not everyone wants to whore themselves out to the media at the most desperately awful time of their life, I suppose.

I hope the lad is safe and warm, wherever he is.

thanks Lucky, yes exactly.
They have made statements, and are very active in terms of trawling every single comment on every single article and post about him.
There are no further details, it was a single ticket which was purchased.
Thing is, if he has gone further afield then no-one knows where....
There’s no scary backstory, or hidden details. Everything the police has released is everything that’s known :(

Liam you're in my prayers tonight. I'm further over west in the Highlands. A teenage woman went missing last Wednesday. Still no word on her either, jade mcgrath.

Hope these young people are safe

I didn't realise Jade was still missing.

Sadly yes

I don’t understand why pictures aren’t regularly flashed up on TV and social media throughout the day. Surely that would increase the chances of someone spotting them.

My guess is that they don't do it because of the numbers of people who go missing every week. Few over the age of 16 who go missing even make the national news.

At one point in the past milk cartons carried the names and pictures of missing people.

What do you mean that his family are trawling every post and comment about him? Are things getting nasty?

I hope he's found soon

Not nasty as such, but just reading all comments and correcting mis-information.
