Now, for this exercise we will take it that the Aga did indeed cause the burns to Nevills back on the night of the murder, so if you dont see this as a possibility then this topic is not for you!
Now there are only two possibilities as to when the burns were made as far as I can see, either after Nevill was shot and beaten to death or before while only unconcious.
So let us have a look at each possibility.
If Nevill was dead while lying against the Aga, then surely he had sustained all gunshot wounds by that time, after all, if he was lying against the Aga in the position suggested by Philip Boyce then the final four shots to Nevills head could not be administered as the back of his head was against the cooker and the right side of his head was against the floor. In fact, it means that Nevill must have been sitting in a similar position as the one he was 'allegedly' found in order to recieve the final headshots before falling against the Aga, yet there doesnt seem to be any blood spatter to suggest this does there?
And I suppose that takes us to the latest piece of evidence regarding the police whistleblower and the crime scene video, which claims the scene was tampered with.
Does this mean the video shows the original crime scene before any tampering took place, and if so, did it show Nevill lying against the Aga? If not, and the video shows Nevill slumped over the scuttle as in the crime scene photos, then can we take it that the police did not move Nevill from the Aga to the scuttle upon entry?
Just what is the whistleblower saying regarding the position of the bodies in the video as opposed to the photos? Was there any difference? If not, what slam dunk is the whistleblower going to produce? A silencer lying beside Sheila? Probably not, else it would be in the papers by now!
So, unless we get some kind of statement from the whistleblower regarding the position of the victims bodies we cant tell if the police moved Nevill upon entry or not!
So what about the possibility that Nevill was simply knocked unconcious while he lay against the Aga?
This has been ridiculed by both supporters and guilters alike, but is it as far fetched as you would think?
After all, it would better explain a lot of anomalies in the Sheila scenario! eg, plenty of time to shoot June and the boys unhindered by Nevill, plenty time to re-load, plenty of time to wash and change, and to write the farewell letters before Nevill came round again!
It also means the massacre may have started much earlier too when the Aga was at full heat!
Let us briefly go through the 'Nevill unconcious by the Aga' scenario-
Sheila decides to go on the rampage and retrieves the rifle, Nevill having heard her go down stairs goes to investigate and finding Shaila with the now loaded rifle tries to talk her down, Shaila snaps and swings the rifle, hitting Nevill on the head and sending him flying, landing on the floor with his back against the Aga. Nevill may have suffered a brain hemorrhage and been gravely injured!
Sheila proceeds to shoot June but only wouds her, June gets out of bed and struggles with Sheila around the bed before being knocked to the floor and finished off with two head shots.
Sheila reloads the rifle and proceeds to the twins room, they only recieve head shots because of the problem June was to kill as Sheila doesn't want them to waken up and suffer. Sheila reloads a third time in preparation to kill herself before cleaning herself up and writing the farewell letters to her birth mother
Nevill eventually stirs around 3.00, severely injured and shaken he stumbles onto a chair and phones JB for help, only saying a few words before trying to replace the phone on its cradle but misses in his concussed state and the phone ends up lying on the kitchen work top off the hook.
Nevill slowly staggers up stairs shouting 'June, are you alright'?, this alerts Sheila who has no option but to shoot Nevill when he eventually drags himself up stairs.
Nevill is shot twice in the face before turning, only to be shot again in the arm and torso.
Sheila follows Nevill to the kitchen finding him exhausted sitting in a chair, Nevill holds up his one good arm in defence as Sheila beats him to a stand still with the rifle.
The chair topples and Nevill lands on the side of it with his backside while his head lands in the coal scuttle.
This is the perfect position for Sheila to inflict the final four head shots, two to the back of the head and two to the right side beside the ear. And indeed most of the blood appears to be around the scuttle!
So, there you are, the only two possible scenarios that I can see if the Aga did indeed cause the burns to Nevills back.
I dont expect much replies to this topic as I have said it all before and most of you dont give the Aga evidence much credence anyway, but if by chance the Aga evidence from Philip Boyce is accepted, I believe that Nevill being knocked out at the time is what most likely happened, unless of course the whistleblower proves otherwise!
Trouble is, I cant see how Nevill lying against the Aga from around 3.30 until 7.35 proves JBs innocence?
