The bible was originally assigned the exhibit reference of DRH/33, and DRH/44..
Rather problematic is the fact that a 'HAND SWAB' taken from the hand of Sheila Caffell at the scene which later attracted the exhibit reference
'DRH/33'Both hands were swabbed by DC HAMMERSLEY at the scene (left and right), yet police never got around to officially assigning a separate exhibit reference to each handswab, or did the police only take one handswab? Furthermore, did the police swab both hands using a single swab?
It is also probable, there may have been blood on one or more of Sheila Caffells hands. No photographs showing the open palms of Sheila, or the hand swabs, have been disclosed.
If police only swabbed one of Sheila's hands, which one? Right or left?
Was the same hand swabbed twice, the first one to clean away any blood on the hand? The second swab then used to reswabbed the same hand again?
