Fans of Emmerdale have voiced their concern that local killer John Sugden<\/a> may never face justice for the murder of Nate Robinson. Poor missing Nate\u2019s body was finally fished (or dredged) up last week, but the authorities are no closer to finding the killer.<\/p>

Instead, they\u2019ve immediately honed in on Cain Dingle<\/a> (who, to be fair, didn\u2019t exactly do himself any favours by beating up Nate and then not telling the police about it). With the body in a serious case of decomposition and John having covered his tracks well, nobody suspects him just yet.<\/p>\n

When \u2013 if ever \u2013 is that likely to change?<\/p>\n
