how would you do it?

No, of course not; but did he know he was a suspect when he returned to England?

When he realized he was a suspect he played games with the police.  He didn't think they would ever be able to actually convict him.

You flee your homeland only when you are convinced you are going to be jailed and don't feel you can hide in some obscure place in your homeland.

I would not have attempted to create a fake robbery.

Burglars enter houses to rob the place. Not massacre a whole family. There may be a scuffle if Neville woke. But killing children is too much. Finding a gun would be a coincidence as well.

Which is why with the fake robbery you can only kill the parents in bed and have to make sure the others are killed awake in locations where it looks like they woke up and saw the killers so needed to be eliminated as witnesses.  You can't kill everyone asleep.  This in turns makes it a more dangerous exercise since you can't kill them in bed, have to make them get up and thus risk them disarming you, escaping the house or calling for help before they are killed.

i another is knowing that i was a murder suspect i wouldent of returned from france.

Jeremy could not afford to stay abroad.

The wills had not been finalised. He was in the process of selling off things or pictures of Sheila. Mary Mugford said Jeremy 'wanted to keep no momento's'.

Jeremy would have spent a lot of time abroad and in London after everything was finalised. Working on the farm was now a 'no no'.

[lookout]

 Quite contradictory in that one minute he wanted to run the farm and be boss overall,then suddenly he's not interested in farming.Which is it to be ?

It is true that Bob Miller  on 'Slaughter at the farm' said Jeremy came downstairs at the funeral reception, pointed at his 'Hugo Boss' suit and said 'Me Boss'.

It is also true BW said Jeremy put his feet on the WHF office desk & said 'I'm in charge now'. Whether that was before he had given himself a pay rise or not, I do not know.

So yes, if there was money involved, Jeremy may have tried to manage things from a distance. Although Neville had said he had no business sense. But there is no chance Jeremy would have got his boots muddy.

I don't think you know much about farming.How many Farm managers do you know who are not hands on. And your "statement" attributed to Neville contradicts completely what he told another witness . So means nothing
