Who Removed The Cash (and credit cards?) From NB's Wallet?

[ILB]

His parents, his right to sell what he wanted.

Simple.

Simple.

Legal, undoubtedly. Moral? Questionable. Leave aside the Boutflours and RW, what about Aunty Pam? It would surely have been a kind gesture to ask if there was anything she would like. He appears to have done it all with total disregard for the family, and whether he liked it, or not, it was they who were REAL family. I don't, however, believe death duties had anything to do with what he sold. It was more about ready cash.

What is REAL family? I'm hearing " cuckoo vibes"

Both children were adopted from babies,

Jeremy Bamber was adopted from six months of age. He was the beneficiary due to what happened.

[ILB]

If he wanted ready cash so what ?

His decision

Even Stan Jones said to AE at one point " what business is it to you what Jeremy decides to do?

[ILB]

I'm not looking at this from the gulity innocent view.

I just find it strange relatives rooting through trousers etc.

AE was on bambers case from the moment she was in bourtree cottage. She herself states she had a uneasy feeling about him prior the massacre.

[ILB]

And parties to go to! I doubt he was thinking about death duties in the interim between the massacre and arrest, nor do I think there'd have been many pennies left from the things he'd sold.

I think he was thinking about it a lot to be honest. There was solicitor meetings etc.

Death duties is a topic discussed in his police interviews. I believe Jeremy mentions it.

[ILB]

If Jeremy Bamber had wanted to, he could have took the keys off AE and simply said " I don't want you going in that property "

He didn't mind relatives taking things, trinkets etc. But he did say " he would rather it happen when he was there "

Although I understand he often also referred to the relatives as " fucking vultures" and " hanging round like a bunch of fucking magpies"

How much do AP and JP inherit from the estate?

[ILB]

What do people except a man to do in terms of grief though?

It's obvious Jeremy would spend time with Julie, brett, Karen and Andrew Bishop, Liz rimmington etc, they were his girlfriend friends.

He wasn't close to the relatives.

Had he and DB for example ever even socialised together? Except at family events. They seemed a little closer to shelia, much less to Jeremy.

You hear exactly right! I, too, was adopted from a baby. When my mother died, I was very conscious that I was not REAL (blood, DNA) family so I asked her family if there was anything they'd like to have as mementos.

I'm sure he did. But death duties would not have been an immediate expenditure, just a convenient fall-back. Just how much of the cash he received, from the 'sale of goods', after weekends away, parties, meals in restaurants, holidays and the necessary holiday attire, is questionable.

I suggest it was more about relief, than grief

They ask him about money he had in his bank in the past in his interviews.

They also to verify the MM story went to get statements of his bank account.

Julie says he was skint more or less at the material time prior to the massacre.

At his arrest at Dover I have a copy of his custody record. Which shows his property. There are numerous bank accounts and bank cards he had, as well as a quite a bit of cash.

Brett said Jeremy paid for lodings and expenses in St tropez. Wouldn't have come cheap, two guys drinking, partying

[ILB]

Remember this guy from birth until 24 lived under the comfortable cushion of wealth. All his needs taken for. If he wanted cash he could to go to Nevill and June.

They are now deceased. He's on his own. He's selling things for ready cash because he needed it.

I thought he was supposed to go back to work? PE installed as farm manager. And said " I expect Jeremy to be back at work Monday morning"

He will still sorting out farm matters with BW, so I don't believe the month from massacre to arrest was just a " massive piss up " that's often made out.

That's fine you are guilter. I always look straight down the middle.

JB is one of those " bollocks to what they think, I don't care il make my own mind up brigade" I'm sure though he did see June and nevill as his natural parents though and vice versa as a natural son. He'd been with them all his life.

The " bastard" jibes at greashams may have upset him, but I don't think it effected him his adoptive status as he matured

Did his natural parents reject him pre massacre for any meet ups?

I have read Jeremy wasn't interested in meeting them prior massacre
