1. How do you know why Julie Mugford has not chosen to sue for libel?
Likewise, why would you so matter of factly state it as significant? I am merely pointing out that it is not significant at all.
2. There is no difference whatsoever in law between saying that Jeremy "told her" he was responsible and saying that he was responsible . She gave evidence that Jeremy Bamber admitted planning the murders and then carrying them out by hiring a hitman. An admission by a defendant is direct evidence of guilt in court. Julie Mugford's evidence was the only evidence of any admission made by Jeremy Bamber. In his police interviews he consistently denied being involved in any way with the murders.
That's not the point and not what I said.
JM gave evidence stating what JB had told her.
She did not give evidence stating what JB had done, unless what JB had done coincided with what he had told JM.
Anyway we're moving into the territory of arguing for the sake of it, it seems.
