It's no secret Jeremy liked to lavish money on himself.
Spending way beyond his means and always asking his parents for more money.
He owed Neville £2,000p which Neville was unlikely to ever see. If Neville had told Jeremy he had to attend bible classes with June to repay the debt, that would have really upset him.
Even when he obtained money, it quickly went. The caravan break in money being spent quickly on slap up meals and drink ups.
Straight after the massacre was no different. Oblivious to the fact that the police and relatives were investigating other avenues, money was quickly spent. At least £6,000 partying and drug buying in Amsterdam. Then more partying at Burnham, London, Eastbourne and St Tropez followed. Even the funeral had champagne on tap.
A lot of the immediately available cash was being used up. Selling off the valuable items inside WHF and finalising the will was still a long way off. However another option was available.
Jeremy offered pictures of his dead sister to The Sun. Knowing The Sun was a popular newspaper which would publish lewd pictures, and also had some financial muscle, he set out his spiel.
He wanted good money, quickly and in cash. The pictures were very sexy and suggestive and he also had other pictures of other family members. He also offered his life story, something he would offer again to the NOTW.
Michael Fielder says Jeremy and Brett were giggling like a couple of school children, making more innuendo's than a Carry On film.
Even The Sun were appalled. Rejecting the offer and publishing the distasteful episode on their front pages. Which would have made the police even more suspicious.
Are there any other instances where someone connected to an appalling crime have tried to cash in straight away ?
Do people agree this sealed his fate ? As the narrator of the new video said. It is true this put him in a worse light, but there is no mention of it being brought up at trial, so did not effect the juries decision.
