Christopher lived in Anlaby and was a school choirboy. He was babysitting at his sister's house in Harpham Grove. Later that night, he was reported missing after being lured and murdered from his uncle, Melvyn Christopher Read. Allegedly, Chris was sexually assaulted, asphyxiated and beaten to death by a blunt object. Two days later, he was found dead inside a carpet-underlay bag in Beverley Beck. It took 28 years to forensically identify Melvyn as his killer but unfortunately died from cancer just three weeks prior to his release from jail.
