THERE is just so much to enjoy in this photograph taken at the junction of Ainsworth Street and Salford, Blackburn, around 1960.

we are hearing reports that his stepmom was keeping him in the basement. this is coming from documents obtained by the detroit free press. 12-year-old charlie was missing for days. his dad was going door-to-door looking for his son and the dad comes on our sister network hln for this interview with nancy grace and then this happened. charlie, we re getting reports that your son has been found in your basement. sir? mr. bothel, are you what? yeah. we are getting reports that your son has been found alive. so that was that interview from a couple of nights ago. remember that bloody pvc pipe that was found in the home that police removed?
