Had Neville been up all night. If not when did he get out of bed ?

[guest154]

Why do people think that there is no report of Nevill´s blood in the bedroom?
I am asking simply because I find it strange. You are shot = you bleed.

I actually thought there was. Scip will know though.

I understand what you're saying, you are saying he would have shot Neville first - as he posed the threat. But Junes blood in on her pillow and in the bed, so she was laid down - Nevilles blood wasn't - so how does that fit what you're saying that he would have shot neville first is what I am asking.

I know June's blood is on the pillow etc so she was obviously shot while still in bed as opposed to Nevill.  So I am not saying June wasn't shot first but questioning whether Jeremy would have shot June first as those who believe JB was responsible do or whether as June was shot before Nevill it was an irrational decision and therefore was more likely to have been an irrational Sheila.

I've read all kinds of theories attached to whether Neville went to bed at all.Also I've read that it was Sheila who was sitting on Neville's side of the bed while June read her the bible. This could have been while he was out walking the dogs or showering downstairs. There were two rifles in use.

We can only guess.

Alias welcome back I seem to think we discussed this before you went away that we could not see blood on Nevill's side of the bed I suppose he may have dripped some on the floor thought some was found on the wall on the stairs where he had brushed against it.

I can only recall reading there was some blood on a wall in the hallway - I think it was Nevill´s, but I don´t remember reading about any in the bedroom.

I think the situation was just presented to Jeremy and he dealt with it in the only way he could and it would all happen so quick I would have thought who ever woke first would be the first to be shot.

But June´s head was still on the pillow when she was shot.

Alias she could have still been awake.

Alias she could have still been awake.

If she was lying down and it all happened quickly, personally I think that Jeremy would have seen Nevill as a greater risk and he would fire the first shot at him, not June. That is how I see it anyway.

Alias guess we will never know

We will not, all we know is that Nevill was not lying down when he was shot and June was. That´s it.

Alias do we know who actually received the first shot?

Alias do we know who actually received the first shot?

No, we are all guessing, nobody knows.

We don't, we can only guess but I think it is more likely to have been June. We don't know if he surprised them by putting on the light or, if he went in with the light off to cause maximum confusion. He may have left off the light which is why June was shot first because he had a better view of her than Nevill. We can't know what he was thinking that night as he committed the crime - we just know how it ended.

Caroline just say for the sake of debate that Sheila had murdered her family one would have thought she would have shot  her Dad first he was her biggest challenge but my feeling is either Sheila or Jeremy would have dealt with the situation presented to them at the time and it would all have happened in seconds.
