HELLO

[BRIAN RHODES]

Hi again  I will not answer individually because the warm welcome has been from so many ,Lookout I have added you as a Buddy.
I intend initially getting to know the site and reading up what I can I will comment about the Jeremy issues as and when I feel I am able to do so and when I feel my knowledge is worthy of my comments.
I have read much on crime my late father was a police officer who worked on the Cannock chase murders in the 1960s on the regional crime squad then based in Wellington Telford it has been a long time interest to me.
There have been far to many wrongful convictions over the years and that is why I am against capital punishment.
In my vast collection of crime books I have a signed copy of a book (will have to find it to name the author and case) of a  former police officer wrongfully convicted of murder so I am fully aware that these things do happen,likewise I am sure guilty people have also got off on appeal.
Looking at some of the volumes of posts by some members I can see that this case has become somthing of a passion to many.
I hope I will be able to offer a worthwhile contribution although it may be a while before I say much of sense because I am so far behind what a lot of you have been involved with for quite a long time.

Hi again Brian,,,sorry for the pause,the phone rang,,but note that you have me on your buddy list,so I'll do the same.
You'll be a good member of the forum,,and once you've digested all there is to digest from the archives and the board itself,it'll give you more of an understanding of the case.

I have not even started to read the evidence yet however two observations are the fact that the doors of "white house farm" were locked from the inside.
Were there any windows open is the most obvious question to ask and could somone have left a house locked from the inside?  I am sure this has been raised many many times.
My other observation and one that interests me is Jeremys adopted sister. How much is available concerning her medical history?
Had she ever been sectioned or detained under the 1983 mental health act sections 1 or 3? was her scitzophinia diagnosed by a Docter,and what were her symptoms? how had she behaved in the lead up to the tradgedy had she been quiet or hyper withdrawn or normal? any information on her generally interests me as my own wife has mental health problems and I have had experience over six or seven years of living with somone who suffers.

Hello Brian and welcome.
Re:  the 1st two paragraphs of your Post #17,  may I offer the following topic on security at WHF.
 Lookup 'The Dogs' from, say #83 to #119 from Lookout. This is about security and the mysterious hunched figure. It involves banter and barracking, but there is a usually used word missing from the anti's in 'The Dogs' - bollocks!

Welcome to the forum Brian. I look forward to reading your opinions.

Good morning Brian,hope you're well.
 You'll find the history of Sheilas' illness in the archives section,,,which is very informative giving you pretty well the full facts of the tragedy.
There are also many links,videos' and documents of all descriptions,as indepth as is possible, for you to form your own conclusions and opinions.
The more you " know " about the case,the more interesting it becomes.
I'm sure you'll find the forum to your liking and will enjoy it as much as I'm doing.
Anything you wish to know,just PM ( personal mail ) myself,,or any other poster who will assist you along the way.

Hello again Brian. Due to the vast amount of information on the forum,may I suggest that a good start in order to familiarise yourself with the case may be to read the Dickinson Report,which,I think,is in the statements and transcripts section. Happy reading!
