This post details how PV assisted in the cover-up of the accidental shooting of June. He manipulated his Autopsy report and his Samples list to disguise this problem. He did not realise that closer scrutiny would later throw up his malfeasance. I believe like the police he thought it would all be wrapped up as four murders and a suicide. I have brought together information from earlier posts to produce a single post which outlines all the ballistic manipulations surrounding key wounds and which also includes actions by MF which form part of the deception.
I decided to invest a considerable amount of time cross checking the information contained in PV’s Samples List and his submitted Autopsy report. I checked all wounds received by the victims. Venezis’ Autopsy and Samples list are on the forum.
I would like to draw your attention to the head shots received by June, In particular PV25. There is one factor that distinguishes this wound from all others. The Samples List details where and how the various bullets were found. PV25 was said to have been taken from the front of head. (Samples List) I suggest readers obtain a scientific picture of the brain showing the various areas of the brain, frontal lobe etc.? Then read the autopsy for this wound. You will find that this is the only wound where there is a discrepancy between the Samples List and autopsy report.
Essex Police had their own photographic unit which serviced cameras, performed X-rays, issued and developed films etc. etc. A senior member of staff was Fred Carter and it was he that took the X-rays. He would have worked with SOCO photographers like DB
We see from the documents that the two bullets (PV25, PV26) changed into one bullet and some fragments. They had to swap PV25 or PV26 because it did not come from any firearm at WHF.
To achieve this, they took one of the 30 rounds on the kitchen top which is why MF only received 29. The cartridge case was used to replace the original TFG case and was found by DRH on the 9th August by the wardrobe saying it had been missed, (DRH43). MF received two bullets for PV25 and PV26 not a bullet and fragments. (See below)
For one of these two bullets note his remarks about how he (MF) could not say it was fired from the Anschutz.
Other anomalies from the autopsy.The X-rays were ordered before autopsy. At autopsy PV found two stud earrings but the X-ray seen by MF states only one in his examination. All of Sheila’s other jewellery is listed with the exception of her Pendant and chain, where did it go?
Reasons to think x-ray might be a fake.
1 The necklace/choker was missing from the autopsy notes unlike the earrings, rings and watch and could be used to fabricate a fake, since the victim cannot be readily identified unless there are distinguishing features such as fillings.
2 The x-ray was a recent acquisition (last 14/15 years). If the defence had not had previous sight of this, whomever sent/produced it might have thought it alone would help Jeremy’s case.
3 The introduction of a fragmented bullets would afford a number of advantages to the police.
(a) It could be used to cover for a larger calibre round had one been used.
(b) It could be used to cover for a round fired from another weapon of the same calibre but with different rifling marks.
(c) it could be used to insinuate that Sheila was ambulant for any storyline devised to cover any mistakes, when they were pursuing four murders and a suicide and body relocation was an issue.
(d) It could be used to enhance the argument that Jeremy failed at his first attempt and was reluctantly forced to stage a two shot suicide.
(e) It could be used to introduce a rogue fragment.
X-ray discussionThe number of fragments is noted by Fletcher on the GER. It is generally accepted that there are 3 large and around 14/15 smaller fragments. Some argue that some of these may be bone fragments. It is likely that PV viewed the x-ray on a light box to assist him at autopsy.
He makes no mention of bone fragments in the autopsy, the follow up report and trial testimony. He only mentions bullet fragmentation in the follow up report. His preoccupation as one would expect is concerned with anatomical damage.
It seems unlikely if bones had been fragmented he would not have reported this. He had three opportunities. He states fractures and lack of displacement only.
A problem with the x-ray is that it does not give a three dimensional view of the fragments and it is therefore difficult to assess each of the fragments in relation to the PV20 photo which itself is not three dimensional. I am not a ballistics expert but find it difficult to associate this with any of the three larger fragments, which given its relative size, are the only ones that are candidates.
The best way to view the fragments for shape is to use the image on the Bamber website and enlarge
The PV20 bullet was first sent to Taylor for examination of blood issues. (see GER) He passed it to MF stating lans and grooves were visible. Notice also that the bag contained blood and tissue which may represent yet another potential blood source for the silencer contamination which was undertaken.
Proving the swaphttps://jeremybamberforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,10645.msg492394.html#msg492394No one can say what happened at WHF after Jeremy left but before the police entered. The Police may have been able to work out roughly what happened from the original crime scene they viewed.
There is no proof that June was shot in bed. I can prove she was not but that can be explained later if you wish.
There is no proof that Sheila killed them all in one go. Or for that matter that June was not hiding with or without some wounds. There is also a possibility of a Mexican standoff.
I believe the original scenario which they planned involved a restaging and included the shooting of Sheila by June in some manner. For this it required Sheila to be shot with two different weapons. They shot her in the neck after she had committed suicide calling it the first shot.
The lower wound had caused substantial haemorrhage into soft tissues of the neck principally from the right external jugular vein. In my view this injury, although life threatening, would not have caused rapid death as in the other wound. Nevertheless, it may have caused the victim to be stunned, although not necessarily rapidly lose consciousness.
The fragmentation they constructed provided her with the ability to then go on and kill June because she had only been stunned. (PV’s original comments) If it was known by any of those involved that June was alive either through telephone contact or if in response to the loud hailer, she then presented herself to be viewed. In such circumstances it would be essential to outline how she had died. The ‘met with no response’ record may have been in relation to a request to go to the phone.
I believe the Fragmentation X-ray may have been faked. They used Sheila’s necklace quite possibly on June superimposing the fragments. Did June have pierced ears?
I believe PV20 did lose some of its volume when hitting the bone but not to the extent displayed. The change to the parts list for PV20 is denoted by the carriage/tab return. The words ‘in cervical muscles’ has been added indicating some measure of fragmentation with the use of the plural.
This has to have been inserted because other wordy descriptions show carriage/tab returns and additional/more lines of text.
When the case changed to five murders they had to move to a one-gun crime. This meant that they would need to go back to the slightly damaged bullet, the original PV20. However, this had lans and grooves associated with a weapon other than the Anschutz. It would have to be swapped.
https://jeremybamberforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,10671.msg493051.html#msg493051From this proposition/scenario we see that Vanezis did not take part in the framing of Jeremy but he was aware of what had happened. He knew. He trod a fine line and chose his words and descriptions with care.
The Samples List and Autopsy report were tweaked to hide a shot by the TFG (PV25 or 26 autopsy notes) and disguise a wound to create a different scenario (PV20 Samples list).They forgot to change 'front of head' on the Samples list. He was forced to elaborate on Sheila’s abilities after the introduced (faked) first shot. He subsequently ruled out any meaningful activity. A change from only being stunned
These two documents represent what they needed for the first case which should have been three murders, a suicide and an accidental shooting. He did try to appear on JB’s side up to a point using some helpful comments like the ‘nutter’ remark. May be he had a guilty conscience or he wanted to distance himself from the police actions.
PV20 was damaged but was never as fragmented as shown on the x-ray. It did not become whole it was never that fragmented.
If Jeremy obtains justice, sooner or later there would have to be an enquiry, may be more than one. PV’s role in events would in all probability be exposed. Not only would it cast a shadow over UK cases he was involved with but he also had a role in the Autopsy of Princess Dianna, pronouncing she was not pregnant. Perhaps more importantly he was seconded from the Home office and played a lead role in the exhumations of mass graves in the former Yugoslavia.
Any damage or undermining of his credibility would have widespread ramifications not only for the UK Justice system but also for International relations and our standing in the world.
