Who is saying that RWB is believed to have got wind of the SIO? That's not been mentioned before.
If RWB is aware of some form concealment via withheld photos re events at WHF, is it not likely that he would demand to know the nature of the concealment / photographs?
Is the suggestion that RWB demanded such answers but such answers were not forthcoming from ACC Simpson? That doesn't work for me. Since that would involve RWB having only limited knowledge that all was not what it should be regarding the raid and/or Sheila's death. Yet still demanding Jeremy be put in the frame for the killings? (There would be a doubt in RWB's mind whether Jeremy was involved, yet he would ignore that doubt and insist Jeremy was investigated??)
Or is the suggestion that RWB received the answers that he had sought regarding the contents of the SIO and events at WHF? I find that difficult to believe also. Because that scenario would lead to an utter callousness on the part of RWB. Since he would then be knowingly insisting that an innocent Jeremy be put in the frame for the killings.
RWB was being given information by various friends and contacts who were mason colleagues, and some who were poilice officers, others still who were family of serving police officers, like Jim Carr whose son, Robbie, worked for the Met` police, was a typical source where RWB found out useful information that he later put to use in persuading his friend, Peter Simpson, to commence an investigation into the handling of the investigation thus far, RWB did not go there to ask Simpson to arrest Jeremy, he went there to lodge a complaint against DCI `Taff` Jones, and to remonstrate over the things brought to his attention by informants in the know...
The investigation did not miraculously alter course on the day RWB confronted Simpson, this is borne out by the fact that DCS `Mick` Ainsleys appointment did not take effect, until after a brief investigation by another senior officer was duly carried out. It was not until mid September, and after the first arrest and release of Bamber on 13th September, that Ainsley took over officially...
The complaints made by RWB were serious ones, for example, he was aware that Sheila`s body had been found downstairs, and that Sheila was still alive, long after Dr Craig, the police surgeon, had pronounced her as being dead...
