Police Conclude Review of 1976 Deaths of Griff and Martha Thomas at Welsh Farmhouse

Dyfed-Powys Police are set to conclude their review of the 1976 deaths of Griff and Martha 'Patti' Thomas, whose bodies were found at Fferm-y-Blaen, their isolated farmhouse in Llangybi, Carmarthenshire.

The initial police inquiry determined that Griff Thomas murdered his sister, Martha, before taking his own life. This conclusion has been consistently challenged by family members and several local residents, who have long maintained that the siblings were victims of a double murder.

The decision to close the cold case review means that, despite ongoing public scepticism, the police force has found no new evidence to alter the original findings. The review was prompted by renewed public interest and calls for a fresh look at the circumstances surrounding the deaths.

Relatives of Griff and Martha Thomas have repeatedly highlighted inconsistencies in the original police work and expressed frustration at the lack of a definitive resolution that aligns with their belief in a double homicide. The police maintain that all available evidence has been thoroughly re-examined within the scope of the review.
