Very skeptical of the mill bank audio.
You would have to come to a view that someone threatened Milbank and silenced him for four decades.
I would be shouting from the rooftops if I knew an Innocent man was rotting in prison,
Or he played along a little with a pretty young journalist lady. He's been known about for years - but seems noone spoke to him until Heidi Blake. The CT probably as surprised as anyone when they heard the audio.
Bamber's lawyers would have braced Milbank a decade ago - but knew the evidence showed the call was patched through by the operator. So the "999 call" merely went in vanilla as part of a scattergun application - only to be given additional life by Heidi Blake.
The basics are consistent - a call went through to him at 6.09am. Might have come direct from inside WHF? He went along with HB's line of questioning.
He seemed to dispute he'd given a statement to Essex Police clarifying the circumstances of the call. Then emailed HB to say he might have done. Then refused to have anything more to do with her.
All thing being considered you could not take this into a courtroom.
