I know essex police messed it all up and there is the photos proving rigor had not set in.but there clearly was a silencer usedd.maybe the cops took it away never recorded it got it all mixed up.then relised they had to get more evidence and frame him for something he did do.
Police seized a sound moderator (SBJ/1 - lab' item number 22) from the scene, on the morning of 7th August 1985, albeit they are denying having done so. I will give my reasons for saying I know police took possession of a silencer from the scene on that occasion - DS "Stan" Jones attended the scene on the morning of 7th August 1985, arriving there along with DCI "Taff" Jones, at about 9:10am. Upon arrival and soon afterwards, DCI Jones asked DS Jones to accompany Jeremy back to his home address and obtain a witness statement from him. DS Jones then left the scene in the company of DC Clark and Jeremy and went to his cottage at 9 Head Street, Goldhanger, but once the first witness statement had been taken from Jeremy, DS Jones returned to the scene at whf, and carried out certain duties, which included the taking of photographs of the downstairs toilet, and the main kitchen. In addition, DS Jones took possesion of two items for evidential purposes, one item being a sound moderator (SBJ/1). In total, DS Jones took possession of four exhibits that morning, SBJ/1, SBJ/2, SBJ/3 and SBJ/4, all the details of which (with the exception of the silencer, SBJ/1) were recorded in the original police major incident register...

This ommission appears to have been a deliberate attempt to conceal for the fact that DS Jones took possession of a silencer (SBJ/1) from the scene at the beginning of the investigation, so that the case for the silencer found by relatrives three days later to beciome incorporated into the case evidence...
