What we have, are two doctors, Craig and Harris, being driven to the scene to look at the bodies of the victims, to confirm whether or not they were alive, or dead. Now, in Dr Craigs case, he was summoned to the scene in response to the discovery of only two of the five bodies, but by the time of his arrival he pronounced all five victims (8.44am) dead. This means that en route to the scene, nobody re contacted Dr Craig to alert him to the fact that there were now five dead bodies, not two. He does not appear to have been for warned by anybody that a further three dead bodies had been discovered inside the farmhouse once he had set off to the scene. Well, he did not get to the scene until about 8.44am, so there was ample time for someone in the know so to speak or elsewhere, that five victims had died in the shooting by say 8.10am, so what we have is a police surgeon, en route to the scene of a shooting to look at two bodies already claimed to be dead from as long ago as say 7.37am, yet no-one contacts Dr Craig about the find of the other three bodies, despite these allegedly having been located upstairs by 8.10am. By this time (8.10am) Dr Craig is still travelling to the scene, and does not arrive at the scene until just before 8.44am, so, for a period of about 34 minutes police at the scene are in the knowledge that there had been five bodies all believed to be dead, two bodies downstairs, the other three bodies upstairs, yet even upon Dr Craig arriving at the scene, no-one tells him there are in fact five bodies they want him to look at to confirm death in each case, Dr Craig is simply taken into the farmhouse and pronounces Ralph Bamber dead in the kitchen. His body is the only one downstairs by that stage, so off goes Craig looking for the second body he has been told about, but does not see another body until he enters the so called main bedroom, and there are now a further two bodies on top of the bed, one body the side of the other (the true version). At this time, June Bambers body was closest to the door through which Craig had been brought into the bedroom, and the body of Sheila was on the far side of the bed...
He pronounced both of these women as being dead, and it surely must have dawned upon him that there was three bodies not two that he had been called to the scene to look at and to deal with...
He was then taken into an adjoining bedroom and pronounced two children as being dead, one child in one bed, the other child in the other bed - five dead in total. Surely, it must have dawned upon Dr Craig by that stage that three people had either been shot dead after he was first requested to attend the incident, or that three further bodies had been found after he had been notified about two bodies he was required to attend the scene to deal with...
Anyway, Craig leaves the scene...
Sometime after Craig left the scene, Sheila was shot a second time, and the amount of blood which rushed from this second wound almost certainly confirmed that Sheila had not been dead at 8.44am when Craig had pronounced her as being dead. She had remained alive barely for at least another 45 minutes or so, by which stage Dr Craig and the two ambulance crews had all left the scene. This led to a Dr Harris being contacted and requested to attend the scene to examine a body, not five bodies, but only one. The body he looked at, and which he pronounced as dead at 9.57am was the body of Sheila Caffell, who by this stage had two bullet holes on her neck...
Sheila was pronounced dead at the scene twice, once by Dr Craig at 8.44am at a time when her body had been on top of the far side of the bed with only a solitary wound on her neck, and secondly, she was pronounced as being dead by a Dr Harris at 9.57am, by which stage Sheila's body was then laid on the bedroom floor alongside the edge of the bed, but with two bullet wounds on her neck - Dr Harris' bloodied fingermarks were were left upon Sheilas neck close to the second bullet wound, and also upon the front lower right hand side of her blue nightdress...
This is what really happened...
