I really hope I don’t take my son home in a body bag,” remarked Debbie. “Funds are not released, nor will they be if they are not needed. I really can’t believe the British public aren’t supporting me in trying to find Jay.”

“This could happen to any of you one day. Very disappointed in you all.”

she added. In a later update to her post, she clarified: “I’m sorry you took this the wrong way. I am overwhelmed by the generosity. What I meant was VERBAL support”.

A crowdfunding effort on GoFundMe to support Jay’s family quickly reached its £30,000 target in just three days.

Jay was last seen shirtless partying at Papagayo nightclub, located at the end of the famous Veronica’s Strip in Playa de las Americas, Tenerife. An image of missing teenager Jay caught him at the club in the early hours with his girlfriend Lucy Law shortly before he disappeared in Tenerife.

Debbie, Jay’s mother, who is currently missing, expressed her frustration at the investigation to MailOnline. She said: “I had a day of screaming and shouting when I had the meeting with the police. I know the Spanish police mean well, but the problem we have is the language barrier, we just don’t seem to be being told. “

The mother further explained her situation: “I’m sure I’m doing my best. They told me they used dogs and drones and then they said Lancashire police had offered their resources but they refused it but I think that might have been it for real. I would feel happier if our people helped too much. It’s so hard not knowing where it is, the area and the terrain is rough, but the police said there are too many people there now and they could interfere. their investigation”.
