Hopefully the family gets closure on this matter. Mr Warwick was however found approx 0.5 of a mile away from the care home. It has to be asked whether the search was thorough enough or not...

Why was he not found? PSNI search and rescue teams planned days and weeks of searches, and this man was found only a short distance from where he went missing!!!! Another case that the PSNI have failed.

This is so sad, but glad he has finally been found and his poor family can now lay him to rest. RIP Harry : (
