When looking on another thread of the X ray photograph showing the fragmented bullet...it was also clear that the necklace pendant also appeared in the x ray.
I am no x ray expert so cannot say wether the x ray was taken from Sheila's front or rear . It does appear to me that the pendant part of the necklace had moved between crime scene and x ray being taken  and that the pendant was more or less centrally to the rear...as a consequence of being moved.

My attention had thus been drawn to the pendant.

Look at the first photograph in the thread and you can make out the weighty pendant part to be to the left side of the victims neck. This is not right as we should expect it to be centrally placed at the front due to gravity from when in an upright position.
Unless Sheila or the killer deliberately placed this pendant for which there seems to be no reason to think this then to me it indicates the pendant slipped round to the position shown in the photograph in the course of her body being moved by someone post death.
There are no drag marks recorded.
In my view the pendant moved due to its weight  when the body was being carried to the position it was placed in and was carried most likely by two people.
It is a mystery to me why they took x-rays with the pendant still round her neck? But then this case has so many anomalies that you'd think you were watching an episode of Primeval.

If they ever make a film of this they need you lot as technical directors the way you analyse everything guns, bullets etc the police must have absolute nightmares going on here is better than any book I ever read without knowing the ending.

Interesting post. I hadn't considered the position of the pendant.

Sheila Caffell couldn't possibly have shot herself and ended up in this position with her hand actually still clutching the rifle.
