Rifle noise

[Steve_uk]

steve-uk  I would suggest to you that during the summer months it would be most unusual not to find rabbits on a farm.  I am not suggesting Jeremy heard them as they are usually not heard just seen.

It's all very convenient for Jeremy isn't it-it all falls nicely for him. Father asks him to come over and doesn't telephone the Police directly,yet Jeremy does the exact opposite-eventually. Five people dead for whom Jeremy doesn't care two hoots,and then he's there like a scene from T.S Eliot's Macavity.

You have no idea who Jeremy did or didn't care two hoots for Steve.

With regards to the .22 being an excellent rifle that can kill with one shot and is used by snipers my querie is this, why would it take so many bullets to kill two elderly people, two babies, and a deranged women in the throes of psychosis  unless it was in the hands of someone whose experience with guns was limited.

steve  why are you attacking me all I said  was on a farm during summer months rabbits would be in quite large numbers.  Never mentioned rifles as I know absolutely nothing about them nor did I suggest Jeremy did or did not care two hoots about 5 members of his family being dead.  You are firing at the wrong person here steve

I was thinking the same thing!

Jeremy was on a high,keepers-he lived for kicks. He told Julie "tonight's the night" and as he finally reached the farm and ascended the stairs he would be trigger happy with the first number of shots. Let's just hope the twins didn't suffer. As Jeremy drove DS Stan Jones and Miller away from Pages Lane that Wednesday morning(strange that the shock had passed)he was bent on a new phase of his life,the only thing inside the house of which he was desirous being the antiques,the reason why he didn't burn down the farm the previous Christmas.

Convenient? I wonder if he would call 27 years in prison 'convenient'?

Good point, keepers. I have always assumed it was an inadequate weapon which is why so many bullets were used (and the wounds are so tiny) but equally that could be due to the shooter being inexperienced

Kicks? What kicks? He'd been working since the early hours and only returned home after 9pm - he'd have been shattered!

And also in a frenzy,Boo.

No you're right Susan I can't disprove it,neither can I disprove the conversation about fostering the twins,threatening Sheila with NHS care,Jeremy telling Ann Eaton that Sheila was on the hard stuff and that he had taken the sights off the gun because it wouldn't fit into the gun cupboard without them. It seems to me that Jeremy had rehearsed some of his story in his mind the preceding months on the tractor but hadn't quite got every detail polished,and as soon as DS Stan Jones gets to work then it all starts to unravel and Jeremy becomes horribly exposed.

Where is your proof that such a fatuous phrase was ever used. It was alleged to have been said, by someone who may have been smoking grass, and was so concerned by it that she went back to bed.

Perhaps he should have bought a machine gun with all them pesky wabbits?

[susan]

Hi Lugg I thought at first you were saying steve should have bought a machine gun for all us pesky posters Ha Ha. but he would be lost without us.

Strange as it may seem I like Steve. He is always polite and never abusive to people. He is also well read. Even though I believe he is mistaken on several things?
