Official site - Sheila scenario.

[ILB]

Bamber would soon change that. Prior to commencement.

Shelia and the twins doors could have well been open as Bamber climbed the staircase

[ILB]

Over confidence.

A mistake.

He was standing on June's side of the bed.

Shooting June would only take a few seconds.

June's shots were silent with silencer attached.

Over estimate of rifle power.

A combination of all the above.

--------

Take your pick.

In fairness if both parties were still soundly asleep they both would have been sitting ducks.

Am I right that the door was directly in line more or less with the bed

[Adam]

The evidence is June was shot first 5 times.

If Nevill had been shot first he would have stayed & died in bed.

[ILB]

The sequence in who was shot first cannot be established.

Maybe. But why would they wake as Bamber crept up the stairs?

Shut doors impossible to hear Bamber creeping up the stairs or the downstairs the kitchen fight.

They were 'sitting ducks'. Daniel, Nicholas, June & Nevill shot 16 times in/by the beds.

Sheila putting up no resistance.

I can appreciate someone walking down the stairs and not waking someone up with the door open. But a six foot 4 man charging down the stairs shortly followed by another six foot grown man......also charging

Well Nevill & Bamber ran down carpetted stairs. Which would have taken 5 - 10 seconds.

Not sure why that would wake people sleeping behind closed doors.

As Julie said, the twins were shot first anyway.

How do you explain Mrs Bambers knee wound...

[Adam]

How do you explain Mrs Bambers knee wound...

Bamber shot her there.

[ILB]

Bamber shot her there.

What do you believe June was doing while nevill and Jeremy fought it out downstairs?

[Adam]

What do you believe June was doing while nevill and Jeremy fought it out downstairs?

The evidence shows she managed to crawl a few feet across the bedroom & back.

She had been shot 5 times.

[ILB]

Five times in bed?

[Adam]

Five times in bed?

The evidence shows June was shot 5 times in bed. Almost certainly while asleep. 

It was around 2am.

It was around 2am.

The knee wound would tend to suggest she was standing up
