It is doubtful Neville would phone both the police and Jeremy.
If things were so serious as to phone the police, there was no point also putting his only son in danger.
By the same token, if Neville thought Jeremy could resolve the situation, there was no point involving the police.
There is also the question of whether Neville would have time to make two phone calls.
On the massacre night Jeremy made a big effort to tell the police Neville liked to keep things private and not involve the police. Although Jeremy did not say, why if that was the case he had rang the police himself.
On the massacre night and the days before Jeremy was charged, the police never said to Jeremy or anyone else that they had heard from Neville.
Upon being charged and at trial, Jeremy stuck to his claim that Neville would phone him if his life was in danger, rather than the police. The police agreed to an extent and never said they had heard from Neville.
Decades later after seeing 3.36am rather than 3.26am on a document, Jeremy changed his mind and said Neville did ring the police. This would mean that dozens of police officers have withheld the truth for 29 years. Even before Jeremy was a suspect. They would have lied in their Witness Statements and perjured themselves in court. With none of them retracting a word.
