Shell Casings Next To Sheila

Best also be careful what you say next!

She wasn't a 'farming girl'. She spent most of her youth at boarding schools. She didn't work on the farm. You're making assumptions based on opinion. Colin confirms that Sheila knew nothing about guns.

her father was a farmer apart from boarding school she grew up in a farming household. I invite you to find logic and evidence otherwise....

She grew up on a farm - went to boarding school from aged 8, she didn't work or shoot on the farm. I invite you to prove she did! Her own husband states that she didn't use or like guns. Good luck with the search!

i have a sister. She is married. She is two years my senior. If her husband stated she never showed an interest in football. I'd be able to contradict it.

I don't doubt that for a moment, but I doubt that Sheila had any interest in football, either.

Sorry, I fail to see the connection?

I'm sure you sisters husband knows she likes football. Just as Colin knew all about Sheila's lack of experience with guns.

who met Shelia first? Jeremy or Colin?

[ILB]

Jeremy is taking a gamble isn't he, if he states his sister has knowledge of firearms with so many relatives prepared to contradict him.

The gamble was shooting them all in the first place.

If Sheila had the knowledge of firearms you're implying, the family would have been aware, ie they'd have been at the same shoots. The shooting fraternity being small, they'd have socialized with the same people. There'd have been gun talk when they were together. You may take it as read, that HAD Sheila shown an interest in/had any knowledge of firearms, someone would have come forward.................if only to dispel the myth that this, least likely of women, had no interest in them.

" This woman " was by no means stupid though and had more nouse than her brother.

This is simply your opinion. If you have any concrete proof of it it would be interesting to hear. It would also be interesting to know how "nous" equates with psychosis. You appear to be suggesting that she'd kept secret for years a love of guns. WHY? Are you also suggesting she'd planned it for years?

I'm not suggesting that Sheila had a " love of guns ", nobody in their right senses would have. Neither am I suggesting that she'd been planning the killings either .
All I'd suggested was that Sheila, as a child growing up had appeared to have had more about her than Jeremy as regards common sense and learning and after having spent years on the farm would have watched her father load a gun or two and may have even been by his side when it came to shooting vermin-----we don't know.
DB had admitted showing her about guns in their earlier years, she was always surrounded by them on the farm.
