Daily Mirror Exclusive: Bambi Killer 19/10/2019

The trial judge had instructed the jury to disregard Bamber's claims that he had called police from his home at 3:36pm.

PC Myall is noted as telling Dickinson: "We received a telephone call at the PStn (Police Station, Witham). The officer (PC West) at CD Control (Chelmsford) was on the phone and told us that he was relating information to us and still had the informant (Jeremy Bamber) on the other telephone."

That fits with Jeremy complaining about how long he'd been kept hanging on.

And prosecutors told the trial Bamber had invented the call from Nevill to lay the blame on schizophrenic Sheila, known as Bambi when she worked as a model.

Haven't a clue, Steve. It's not a paper I buy and I haven't seen any headlines because I haven't been out. Have just tuned into the News Channel but it's more concerned with Brexit than with Bamber.

Yes Jane the timing is curious as the newspapers have their plate full with this Westminster debate. But evidently Peter Kirkham was given advanced notice. Has this all been dredged up to sell copy?

The trial judge had instructed the jury to disregard Bamber's claims that he had called police from his home at 3:36pm.

Quite rightly so. Jeremy couldn't have made a call at 3.36, drive to and arrive at WHF by 3.50.

Bamber was convicted by a 10-2 majority of murdering his family to claim a £436,000 inheritance.

He was initially sentenced to five life sentences, to serve a minimum of 25 years, but that was increased to a whole life tariff in 1994.

Which side does the Mirror support? Stay or remain? I think the subliminal message may be that they're fed up with it.

The Mirror revealed in 2010 how lost phone logs showed it was Nevill who called police at 3:26am. A further record submitted to the Criminal Cases Review Commission in 2010 showed a 3:36am call to police from Jeremy Bamber. But the CCRC ruled the 3:36am call was noted in error and that there was just one call, from Jeremy, not Nevill, made at 3:26am from White House Farm scene.

YES!!! There's the hugely important point that his supporters choose to turn a blind eye to, and that it that when handing down a MINIMUM of 25 years, the trial judge said it remained to be seen whether it would ever be considered safe for him to be released.

There was certainly some jubilation here when it was suggested that there were two logs -some still believe it to be the case, I believe- but it turned out that one was simply the first being paraphrased when it went from one department to another.

It is scathing of Brexit: "Brexiteers promised the UK would have a Rolls-Royce future out of the EU. Under Johnson's plan, we will travel in an old banger."

[Caroline]

This is utter garbage! And it reeks of the CT.

The log has an entry of 03:37 with another time scrubbed out and the word 'approx' underneath it  .

One might, then, see this a their way of sticking their fingers up at BJ with the 'dirtiest' thing possible?

The new "3:37am" note is said to prove the existence of the second call.

ITV announced last week a drama about the murders next year, with Freddie Fox playing Bamber, who is in Wakefield jail, West Yorks. Bamber was famously pictured with girlfriend Julie Mugford, 21, struggling to contain his grief walking behind his parents' coffins at their funeral.
