Jeremy's 'dirty protest'. Why ?

[Jan]

so did he think he was innocent then went guilty now back to innocent? Or was that not him?

Jan that is what I thought innocent guilty now a MOJ that is how it reads to me.

[lookout]

 BW had actually included JB when he wrote about Susan May and Eddie Gilfoyle,as being MOJ's.

[Jan]

perhaps he thinks he is guilty but it is still an MOJ?

[lookout]

It's a possibility,though I don't ever recall him mentioning the MOJ bit.

BW has changed his mind and believes Bamber guilty, he's been very clear about that.

[lookout]

Of course both Susan May's family and Eddie Gilfoyle are still waiting to clear their names. Eddie's sister had slammed the CCRC for dragging their feet over Eddie's submission which was in 2010.

yes that's what I thought . did not understand his article about why, because it did not add up with the evidence - but each to their own. every time you think someone has had a Eureka moment it turns out to be nothing than a niggle.

When in August 1992 the Police Complaints Authority dismissed Jeremy's concerns over the way the original investigation was handled by Essex Constabulary, he joined five other inmates in Franklin, Durham in wrecking their cells and pasting the words “FREE BAMBER HE IS INNOCENT” in excrement on the walls.

This shows Jeremy's persuasiveness. Managing to convince five other in mates to join him. Anyway I digress. Why did he do this ?

Obviously he was upset at not winning his claim. But there would have been other reasons.

The early 90's was probably a low point in the 'Campaign for Freedom'.

It was no secret that Jeremy enjoyed the attention at trial. During the trial there was always the possibility of getting a 'not guilty' verdict. Resulting in him becoming a rich, famous and 'innocent' man. However a guilty verdict put him inside. A quick appeal came to nothing and the next appeal was years away. There was no internet and the media & public moved onto the next big story. Jeremy was going nowhere fast.

So his protest was frustration that his 'watertight' plan had not only got him convicted and kept him inside, but he couldn't even give the police a body blow.

Of course the 'Campaign for Freedom' became more effective after 2002 for various reasons.

The other reason for the 'Dirty Protest' was precisely because no one was taking much interest in the case. So his tantrum would not be an issue of discussion years later and may have even been kept inside the prison walls. Which would be useful if the 'Campaign for Freedom' became more effective.

Is the real Jeremy Bamber the man who was a 'mummy's boy'  Or someone who gets angry when he doesn't get what he wants ?

It was his reaction to the COLP investigation it sais in carol ann lees book quoting Jeremy "I lost my marbles and covered myself in shit"
