1. Vanezis says that her hands were not contaminated apart from with blood.
2. Davidson says bags were placed on Sheilas hands whilst her body was in situ at WHF.
3. Hammersley says bags were placed on Sheilas hands whilst her body was in situ at WHF.
4. Davidson says the bags were removed prior to post mortem and hand swabs were taken before washing, he says no police officer would allow washing of the body before hand swabs were taken.
5. Hammersley (who took the swabs) says the swabs appeared clean to the eye.
6. Hammersley says that both of Sheilas hands were clean and free of debris except for "blood staining on the top surface of her right hand towards her wrist".
7. Vanezis says her palm and fingers were free from blood.
8. MacDonnell says that he has seen photographs showing Sheilas hands to be free from blood, but does not know if the body had been washed.
Despite all of this, Caroline decides that if she applies some red paint to her hand, she can make a mark on a piece of paper claiming it proves a bloody palm print is on the bible. She then decides that this proves that Sheilas palms WERE covered in blood.
Fair enough, but personally I don't agree with her reasoning, despite the number of times it gets repeated as if it is fact. Sorry.
