Police searching for a couple along with their new-born baby boy that went missing after abandoning their broken down vehicle in Bolton, have made sweeping overnight searches of hotels in Colchester to try and locate them.
Officers working the case say that Constance Marten has the means to support her family indefinitely as she comes from a wealthy land owning family.
Evidence suggest that Constance has recently given birth and the baby has not been assessed by medical professionals.
Detective Chief Inspector Rob Huddleston said:

“As we have said previously, from our perspective this search is about the young child’s welfare. We know some elements of the public may see police involvement as unwelcome and I would seek to assure you that we do not wish to impose ourselves for any reason other than to make sure the new-born baby is alive and well.
“I am a parent myself and I know the bond a mother and father have with their child, but I would appeal directly to Mark and Constance to put the welfare of their child first. To you, Constance, medical professionals still need to assess your baby to make sure he or she is medically well and there are no underlying issues for which he or she may need help for. Indeed, medical professionals would like to examine you for the same reasons.
“Please, get in contact any way you would like to. We are here and ready to help you.”
Anyone with information is urged to contact 101 immediately.
