The meeting with The Sun newspaper:

[Adam]

theres also the fact that if somone wanted to sell naughty pictures the news of the world would be there first port of call not the sun.

Not true.

They are very similar papers. Isn't the NOTW the sister paper to The Sun.

Brett had contacts with The Sun anyway.

Nugs you must stop trying to claim Jeremy did not try to sell pictures to The Sun. You must change stance to 'it doesn't make him the murderer'.

[Adam]

You don't think it's funny that on the OS they are stating Jeremy didn't have such pictures and yet he described them to Colin and Fielding. Now that's funny!

I couldn't find any mention of these pictures on the OS.

[Jane]

nugnug as I see it how would the Sun know about these photo's if Jeremy had not told them. He told Colin and I suspect elaborated on the contents and Colin wrote Jeremy a letter asking for the photo's back so he could destroy them but the day he posted the letter they appeared front page and the words Jeremy used were virtually the words he had used to Colin and as April quoted had he not tried to sell these photo's he would have been shouting from the rooftops but he would know the Sun reporter would have recorded the conversation in the event of Jeremy wanting to sue.

Susan, that's a valid point you make. If the photos didn't exist, how would the Sun have known about them. They HAD to have received their information from somewhere -someBODY!!! I will allow for the fact of them -perhaps- NOT being as explicit as described and POSSIBLY this was what the Sun banked on. In ANY event, they got their scoop -SAYING that there were porny pics was almost tantamount to publishing such!!!- AND kept their money.

April hello

you are quite right the Sun got their impact from their front page story he tried to sell (think the words used were) sex pictures and it cost them nothing and I guess they would have recorded their conversation and Jeremy knew that and this is why he kept quiet.

[nugnug]

so if they recorded the conversation how come that wasnt used agianst him that would of been very damming.

[Adam]

even if i changed stance to 100 percent guilty i still wouldent belive this story.

Why did The Sun risk perjury charges from a soon to be rich man by publishing a made up story on their front page ?

Why did Fielding repeat the story for the cameras 20 years later ?

Why has Jeremy never mentioned it ?

Why did Jeremy not answer Caroline's question on it ?

Is it a coincidence that later,  Jeremy approached the NOTW with a post trial offer of his life story ?


In a court of law, the jury will find him guilty of attempting to sell the pictures. The defence just saying 'I don't believe it happened' will get laughed out of court.

[Adam]

Jeremy has been convicted of killing his family. I don't see what is so unbelievable about him trying to make a lot of money from The Sun afterwards.

[susan]

so if they recorded the conversation how come that wasnt used agianst him that would of been very damming.

nugnug he never challenged the story they ran about him had he done so they would have produced the recording and Jeremy knew this.  I cannot prove this nugnug but I believe Colin he had no reason to lie about the photo's.

Adam he tried to sell the photo's before he was convicted.

[Adam]

so if they recorded the conversation how come that wasnt used agianst him that would of been very damming.

Who said they recorded the conversation ?

If they did it's not surprising Jeremy hasn't brought it up. As he was caught red handed.

The Sun don't need to supply any recording. They are not on trial.

[Adam]

Adam he tried to sell the photo's before he was convicted.

I know.

Why are people not believing a convicted murderer would not try to sell pictures of someone he murdered ? He was going to get 40k from the NOTW if found 'Not Guilty' at trial.

[susan]

Who said they recorded the conversation ?

Adam if Jeremy and taken legal proceedings against them for making the story up they would have produced their recording  and shot him down in flames.

If The Sun made up their front page story, and got found out, surely would have to shut down.

Trying to profit from such a terrible event will be unforgivable.
