Damien's family are appealing to
the people of the Isle of Wight to
help us!
We are still convinced that the
answer lies on the Isle of Wight.  
We believe that something bad
happened to Damien that night.
Who saw Damien on the night of
November 2, 1996? It is a long time
ago but people still tell us they
remember this very well...What do
you know??

Who was on the High Street in
Cowes that night?  Ed & I,  saw
the cctv video of the street and
Damien's last movements...and
we know what we saw,  but why
did the police lose the CCTV film
footage of Damien on the street
that night?

What are people afraid of or who
is trying to hide?

Who are the men on the Yorkies
Chip Shop video Yorkie's Chip
Shop

Who is still out there that is a
threat to local people?

Were you young and afraid to
say anything?

Do you now have children of
your own?

Can you put yourself in our
place? How would you feel if you
lost your child and never having
any closure?

Missing since November 2, 1996
Damien's Pictures
Web Information about Damien
Damien Nettles went missing
November 2nd, 1996 on The Isle of
Wight, Hampshire, England.  He had
been out with friends and parted
company from them at approx
10.30pm.  He was seen on Cowes High
St by various people.  He was caught
on security camera at Yorkie's Chip
Shop on Cowes High Street at approx
11:45pm.  He was surrounded by a
group of 5/6 men.
Chip Shop Only
three of these men have been
identified.  Two were army officers
who were in Cowes for training in
sailing.  The other, possibly a local
drug dealer, who has since passed
away, who was not identified until after
his death.  The Isle of Wight is a very
small place and I am surprised that
despite pictures and publicity of this
video, it took over six years for
someone to identify this individual.
The first two men were identified after
a documentary, which aired in January
1997, 2 months after Damien went
missing.  They were not local.  The
National Missing Persons Charity was
given an anonymous tip that these
men were from the Army, one a Major
based in Aldershot and the a
Lieutenant based on the south coast.  
They were interrogated and claim they
did not know anything, however, both
of them held conversation with
Damien, as seen on the
video.  Anyone
with any information related to
Damien's disappearance, please
contact us.

Who are the men behind and
to the left of Damien?  The tall
man leans over to talk to the
man behind Damien who is
watching him?  They have
never been identified or the
man at the counter.  The two
to the right have been
interviewed.  Also WHY did the
police decide to edit this video
by splicing the beginning and
the end, which shows a police
car passing the shop window?
 Also, Damien was seen
minutes after leaving the shop
on the street CCTV camera
walking along alone with his
chips.  However, THE POLICE
managed to LOSE this video
and never held accountable for
losing evidence!  Something is
not right!

Were you at Carisbrooke High School?

    Did you hear about the bullying that took
    place against Damien at a party at a girls
    house right next to Yafford Mill?  Damien told
    me the house contained Nazi memorabilia.  He
    was abused and humiliated there by
    Carisbrooke High School students.  Who were
    they?  He was drawn over with black marker,
    held down, and when he tried to leave
    someone used a can of aerosol and lit it with a
    lighter and singed his coat.... and if that was
    not enough they shot at him with a BB Gun.

    Do you know who might have wanted to harm
    him again?

    Were you at the party?  Can you tell us what
    happened, why it happened?  Who wanted to
    hurt Damien?
