just found this - point 4 page 7 wireless log
from the defence. The 8.41am entry states ‘OG10 and two officers with Dictaphones and 5 tapes to go asap to scene’. It is assumed that they arrived as ordered and that they made detailed audio recordings as ordered of the scene. These tapes would contain further information that was never contained in Witness Statements which were often made weeks later. Had this information been known about at trial then these tapes along with all the other audio tape recordings of the telephone and radio messages would have been called for to assist in proving the innocence of Jeremy Bamber.
The next issue relates to the calling of two ambulance crews to White House Farm on the morning of 7th August 1985. Entries on page 4 of the Wireless Message Log states:
‘ CA07 (control car at scene) 6.20am 2 ambulances required, one for immediate one for standby’
‘IR (incident room) 6.22am 2 ambulances arranged’
‘IR at r.v. point going to scene with 2 ambulances escorted by CA06 (police vehicle) 6.40am’
‘ CA06 8.1 (officer code) at Pages Lane (road which leads to WHF) 7.04am Necessary escort dealt with’
In 1985 it was not normal practice to call ambulances to an incident where the Tactical Firearms Unit were deployed. This is clear because the police TFU were deployed to White House Farm at 4.04am and it was another two and a quarter hours before the ambulances were requested. The decision was obviously made by the police
