Neil Hyett, Shannon’s uncle, said that dozens of local people helped with the search for his niece. “We’re extremely worried. Her brother, who is 11, has gone missing in the past, but not Shannon,” he said. “It was absolutely freezing. Minus 6. All the adults were cold, so how cold would she be?” Mr Hyett, 36, a coach driver, said that his niece’s disappearance was out of character. “She’s a quiet girl and very shy. She’s normally the first one home from school out of all her friends.”
Mr and Mrs Hyett said that Shannon lived with her mother, her stepfather, Craig Meehan, 22, a supermarket worker, two brothers aged 11 and five, and a two-year-old sister. Mrs Hyett said that Shannon also had a twin brother, Ian, who lived with their father in Huddersfield.

Karen Matthews, Shannon’s mother, has seven childen by five fathers. Shannon was thought locally to have a twin brother who lived with their natural father. It emerged this week that the two children were born a year apart. Their mother called them twins merely because they had the same father. When a female relative was giving interviews about the missing child on the day after Shannon disappeared, her husband loudly reminded her to charge “a fiver for a feel” \, then roared with laughter at his own wit.
