Strangled Joanna Yeates' sock missing

One of British murder victim Joanna Yeates’s socks was missing when her body was discovered and has still not been found, police confirmed today.

Miss Yeates, 25, was not wearing her coat or boots either but those items were found at her home in Bristol, Detective Chief Inspector Phil Jones said.

The landscape architect was last seen walking back to her rented flat in the Clifton area of Bristol after going for drinks with colleagues on December 17.

Her snow-covered body was found on Christmas Day in a lane three miles from her home. She had been strangled.
