I disagree Hartley. The argument over the windows could win a jury of today. The silencer evidence can throw doubts to a jury...for it is not 100% certain that Shelia's DNA is on there; plus it might be proved that a silencer was not on the rifle during the murders. It's not a safe bet anymore Hartley...I know JB was found guilty in 1986, but...and a big but...and in all fairness, the evidence was rather thin......I agree the mere fact they destroyed the majority of the evidence when told not too...makes it very difficult....I suppose one might have to ask why so much evidence was destroyed when EP knew JB was intent of fighting for his innocence...
I understand what you are suggesting, but that is simply not the case at all.The evidence against JB has not been weakened at all, it might be a fun thing for somebody protesting his innocence to cling to, but the reality is very different.Take the window entry for example, the prosecution do not claim that they knew how Jeremy entered and exited the house, they simply demonstrated that he could have.The silencer evidence most certainly would be admissible in court today, the crime scene would have been locked down and investigated more thoroughly (in my opinion) before it was handed over to Basil. The police would have found the sound moderator themselves, they would also have been able to carry out DNA tests using Sheila's DNA as a comparison rather than her biological mothers.If anything, I'd say that the case against Jeremy has been reinforced considerably over the years, Jeremys defence teams opportunities have diminished a little more each time the CCRC responded to an application for leave to appeal and each time a Court of Appeal dismissed his case.That's without mentioning all of the exhibits which have degraded due to the passage of time or been destroyed, which are no longer available to the defence, which makes questioning the original findings rather difficult.Just saying Patti.
A skewed slant that is Hartley. Give you your dues, you've certainly got some loyalty.
The prosecution indicated at the original trial that there was a remote chance of the blood not being Sheilas, the jury specifically asked that question.The case against Jeremy is stronger now than it ever has been in my opinion.I'll eat my hat if leave to apply for a JR isn't refused. We could go back and forth all evening, but I'll still think you are living in cloud cuckoo land.Plus it would be pretty pointless.
You've been drinking lol

There's a good chance that your hat will remain unEaton (sorry... couldn't help it )
The crime scene wasn't preserved
I think you should stand in the corner with your hands on your head for that one.
