Now...
the story being put forward that there was only ever just the one silencer, which had three separate exhibit references, namely, SBJ/1, DB/1 and DRB/1, was not evidence placed before the jury which tried the case. The jury were not made aware of these very serious administrative errors or contradictions - if they had been, it is almost certain that the silencer, blood and paint evidence derived from it would have been thrown out on the basis that it was too dodgy to allow in...
At this late stage, police are saying they had to alter the original exhibit references given to the silencer because they clashed with other exhibit references given to other exhibits bearing the same exhibit references. What this means is that although the first silencer found had an exhibit mark of SBJ/1, it had to be altered into DB/1, because it clashed with another exhibit bearing the same exhibit mark...
OK, you got that...
Right, so please can somebody tell me what this other piece of eveidence bearing the exhibit reference of SBJ/1, was / is? Where was it found, who found it, and what happened to it?
