The Week of the Murders

[JackiePreece]

I doubt Jeremy was aware of the conversation between Colin and Sheila on the last journey to WHF (Sheila asking Colin to take her back)

I also doubt Jeremy knew of the change in Sheila's medication

What a coincidence that he would choose to kill his whole family at this time when he most probably did not know either of the above ??

[nugnug]

refresh my memory what was this conversation.

So where is your source?

[lookout]

refresh my memory what was this conversation.

Sheila was hoping for a reconciliation and had thought there was a chance,poor thing.

Sheila was hoping for a reconciliation and had thought there was a chance,poor thing.

Yes, I have heard this mentioned before, but Colin doesn't mention it in his book or in his statement - so where does it come from?

[Caroline]

I take it that a source cannot be supplied for this claim?

[lookout]

Yes,there is a source somewhere ( have just been shopping ) so I will endeavour to find it. I've got a feeling it might be in Claire Powells' book,so I'll check. I've also seen it on a link as well which is probably where I got the info from,but I didn't make it up----------honest.

[lookout]

Something else I didn't know,and that was neither Neville or June liked Colin. This was partly due to the fact that he and Sheila had lived together before they were married,and because of Junes' strong religious beliefs,they were often against Colin having the children more than he was already doing  ??

June once tried to break up with Colin on behalf of Sheila - without consulting with Sheila first! Both Sheila and Colin were livid. I think it is safe to say that at least June did not like Colin at all.

[lookout]

When Jeremy had said in court that there was talk of foster parents that night around the table------it was dismissed.

I have never understood why it was dismissed, since the twins had been in day foster care in the past.

[lookout]

I also didn't know that documents had been drawn up with a view to the adoption of the twins ??
Also,in court,a friend of Sheilas' stated that June constantly told Sheila that she was an unfit mother.

Why hasn't information like this been bandied about for a change instead of pointing a finger at Jeremy ?

All this " in-fighting " behind closed doors is hiding a multitude of evidence.

[lookout]

If the judge had studied what the REAL motive was behind this murder,instead of it having been about money,then perhaps none of would be here discussing this case.
There are plenty of other motives to murder than money.

Lookout, I wouldn't have thought it needed saying. I imagine that June regarded him as a heathen or a heretic and Neville may have taken the view that he usually saw men like Colin in his courtroom. I think he was totally outside of their narrow frame of reference. Not a criticism, just an observation. It has no bearing on Jeremy's innocence or guilt.

[lookout]

I have never understood why it was dismissed, since the twins had been in day foster care in the past.

And why was it dismissed ? Because statements taken from Mrs Lister and Mrs Lester,both foster carers, were never disclosed to the defence so therefore could not be part of the defence case,,thus countering what Jeremy had said which was believed to have been all lies !!

What chance did Jeremy stand at all,against a pack of individuals who,it would have seemed,PURPOSELY omitted statements to the defence. It stinks to high Heaven.
