If EP's initial investigation had followed the rules of a crime scene ( brutal murder ) by 1.) wearing protective gloves,2. ) engaging with an appropriately dressed forensic team, 3. ) a cordon around the property--------then they would have been taken seriously. No wonder Nevill called them " Dads Army " !
Imagine any police force being branded in such a way ? Would you have felt at ease if you needed them ?
Because none of this happened there was immediate contamination. The half-wit photographer had moved the rifle umpteen times,wiping away any prints that would have been present
The GP had just glanced at the bodies to pronounce them deceased,with no approximate T.O.D. recorded,thus causing mayhem when it came to the Will.
It's safe to say that if this crime happened today,30 odd years later,that the whole outcome would be different because firstly the better understanding of mental health issues and everything that goes with it----initial diagnosis,medication,and support would be given in conjunction with their specific illness.
The main reason for being here,well mine,is the fact that because certain items of paperwork were withheld that could have made a vast difference and whether you vote guilty or innocent,you must agree that the trial was and remains to this day,very unsafe.
There HAS to be a reason why you're here too ? Otherwise where does your interest lie when he's already been sentenced ?
