Soon after Lesley's disappearance, some local people started to speculate on his possible involvement in the crime, and disturbing things began happening in the Calvert household.

His daughter, Sandra Calvert also remembers the unsettling occurrences. "We'd go down to our grandparents for dinner and we'd come back and things had been moved in the house. Things had been pulled out of the hot water cupboard - it was scary." Now, frustrated by the years of suspicion, Calvert wants the psychics to clear his name and unmask the real killer.
