Simon Hall Confesses To Murder Of Joan Albert

[fannymoon]

So do you think SH was sexually abused by his family members? I guess that would make sense as to why he was so screwed up?

No idea. Doubtful though. Simon was always a jack I lad and getting in trouble. It doesn't fit.
I mentioned it previously because I wondered who started it. Since speaking to the family I know he has lied to everyone, especially the wife.
Simon caused a lot of trouble for the family with drugs and money issues. Communication broke down and simon stopped writing and doing anything. No wonder really as he couldn't cope. I saw him once and he was not the guy I remember at school.
The family didn't do anything bad as I can see, they tried but it's a tough situation imho. When the wife came on the scene she lied and I heard stole money from them and even rang Simons estranged family. Not very good behaviour but I think she knew it all along.

Mugnug, I doubt anyone has a copy, it's police record not public unless it was made up of course.

If, as you are suggesting FannyMoon that the family knew SH was guilty all along, that is absolutely despicable and unforgivable but would indeed give an explanation as to why they were so vicious and cruel towards the wife and attacked her for no apparent reason.

Quite the opposite, I think they believed in him but couldn't handle his actions. I think the wife made it up and in his deluded state he went along with it. It's just what I think in the things I have read.

How do you know simon truth seeker?

You use the name 'Simon' as if you know him personally? Did you and he have a sexual relationship before he went to prison?

I hope you can back up that allegation FannyMoon.

No but he was a mate of a mate.
Did you?

I have been told things from people. Even that you are his wife. I guess you cannot always believe what you read on the forums!

When the wife came on the scene she lied

I heard the wife once phoned the mother and said to her she felt her and the Hall family were carrying on like they all had a sick family secret? It looks like that was true after all. That was probably why the family all ganged up on and attacked the wife from that point on. Think it was early 2009?

If I said that between approx 1987 and approx 1991 I used to work and virtually live in Capel St Mary; (plus I had a brief affair with someone who would have known both parties, particularly Simon) I wonder if I might have any interesting revelations. After all, the whole village used the little newsagents, the shops and the Co-op supermarket. Talk about goings ons and gossip!!
As far as I can recall, another woman who left Capel St Mary was murdered in Ipswich a few years later, but I believe the culprit was caught and imprisoned. Many people initially thought that might have been down to Simon before Joan Albert was murdered.

[fannymoon]

I dont think anything you have put forward is true.

His family didn't know anything and have never had a secret to keep. Not sure why your so obsessed with them?

Are you his wife or not? Or are you going to avoid answering?
I think you should stick to the facts, you make a lot if guesses here.

Interesting. I hadn't heard this ever mentioned .

[fannymoon]

So do you think the sexual abuse allegations against his family members were true? The family did appear to lack boundaries, wouldn't you agree? The brother always acted as though he was jealous of the relationships SH had with women?

Not at all. If simon did kill Joan then that's one thing and not the families fault or his brothers. I've never read anything to back this up and people I know are friends of Simons brother and they would know more but it's very unlikely. Why do you attack his family so much? It's evident you have an issue with them all?

She was a Geordie and lived in one of the first few houses in Thorney Road (left hand side) - I'm pretty certain it was her. I know her Christian name. Began with 'J'

The problem is, you appear to be suggesting that the family knew all along that SH was guilty. No, they weren't responsible for taking another human beings life but it appears they were guilty after all of hiding the truth?

You talk a lot about the brother? Do you know him? He always appeared to know SH was guilty. Didn't they have a 'very' close relationship after they were adopted? Do you think they told one another secrets and protected one another?

Can you tell us more about this MrsTiggywinkle? Though I have a feeling you are grabbing at straws. What year are you talking? Surely if someone was imprisoned for it then SH couldn't have been responsible?

I don't recall SH name being given for any other murders, though I am aware he used an alias.

It seems the confession by SH has opened a hole can of worms for the Hall family. I wonder what other 'secrets' they are sitting on?

Why do you refer to SH being deluded? I've already explained, he was of sound mind.
