Does anyone know what the Holmes Index is?
I am told by the Campaign Team that through the Holmes Index, they can identify a total of 14 (and they claim possibly more) Witness Statements allegedly made by Julie Mugford.
Simon Kelly of the Campaign Team states "Julie Mugford made 14 pre-trial statements. These were condensed down into 1 statement given at Jeremy’s trial. This is known as the “served” copy. This allowed the Prosecution to edit out anything they didn’t feel was helpful to their case. Only 8 of Julie Mugford’s statements have been released to Jeremy’s team. Despite requests for the remaining 6 statements to be disclosed (Holmes box references have been provided) the CCRC and Essex Police have failed to provide these to the defence. Is that justice, or obstruction of justice? I know what we think! If Essex Police have nothing to hide then disclose the statements! The other thing to consider is, why the CCRC have not sort disclosure of these statements? These are crucial to the case and should be disclosed. Mugford received immunity for her own crimes, so her testimony, more than most, needs to be scrutinised. Another example of how badly the system has let Jeremy down."
Thank you in advance.
