Overview

• Stephen Roccas shared a nine‑second video taken outside the Masca cottage where Jay Slater was last seen, captioned "Views" and featuring the surrounding landscape.
• Jay’s mother, Debbie Duncan, called the post "sick" and questioned why Roccas returned to the location and what he was trying to prove.
• Roccas declined to give evidence at the inquest, with the coroner noting he could not be compelled because he was abroad, and police attempts to serve him at UK addresses were unsuccessful.
• The inquest recorded an accidental death with no third‑party involvement; Ayub Qassim, who was at the cottage with Roccas and Slater, gave evidence via video link.
• Slater disappeared on June 17, 2024 after leaving the rental and saying he would walk back to his hotel; his body was found in a ravine 29 days later after he told a friend he was lost and dehydrated with 1% phone battery.
