Linked to this matter, was the fact that when Anthony Pargeter stated in one of his witness statements that according to what David Boutflour had told him, 'that police had at some stage handed the silencer back to the family' ( something which David Boutflour denied he had ever said to Anthony Pargeter), that Pargeter must have been referring to the fact that police had originally taken his silencer (the 1st silencer), and that by the beginning of September 1985, Ann Eaton and David Boutflour (between them) had found a way to get Anthony Pargeters silencer back, and place the Bamber owned silencer (the 2nd silencer) into police possession..
Thereafter the relatives, the police and those at the Lab' all agreed to make a pact whereby they would merge the involvement of the two different identical looking Parker Hale silencers as the same one! The office manager, who turned out to be PI Miller in this case, then drafted up a handwritten document listing all the witness statements and other documents both at the police station and at the Lab' where alterations would need to be made, so that any reference to the silencer having an exhibit reference of SBJ/1, SJ/1, DB/1, AE/1, CAE/1 and DRB/1 would appear to relate to the same silencer, when in fact there had been two silencers!
