Severn Bridge, South Gloucestershire

When Thomas Osmond decided to draw a line underneath the papertrail of his life, he decided upon the known suicide spot of Severn Bridge to sever the connection.
He left the note explaining he intended to kill himself by throwing Osmond off the bridge and in March 1995, the day before a court hearing where he was to be tried for sexual offences, the new start as Stephen Williams began.

By absconding from the justice system, a police office became suspicious and continued to search for Osmond / Williams. Three years later he was found living in Bristol close to the bridge and when sentenced he was handed seven years.
