The Murders at White House Farm - By Carol Ann Lee (A Taster!)

[Caroline]

Why did he not want his identity disclosed?  Is this another of Paul Harrison's death threat claims?

There is really no way I can answer that given that I haven't read the book. However, I can understand why someone wouldn't want to be named as being associated with Jeremy, especially if they believe he's guilty and had been close to him in the past. I don't believe there were any death threats - just a request not to name him.   

[Caroline]

So what would have been the purpose of locking that door between the bathroom and upstairs office if it was someone from the outside doing the shooting ? Surely it would have hampered an assailant to have made a quick getaway ? Only those already present for the night would go around locking doors seeing as the one which was locked led to other parts of the house ?

It may have been always locked at night OR, perhaps it was locked for the very reason you have mentioned, if it blocks the assailant's escape, it also blocks the victims and stops them getting to the gun cupboard without going through the rest of the house first.

On the contrary,it's those who say/think that Jeremy is guilty who certainly don't mind admitting it,from what I've seen. It's those of us who claim he's innocent who are the cautious ones because of all the flak and name-calling,i.e " supporters of a child murderer ".

Admitting what? Cautious about what?

But those who believe him to be guilty may well not wish to be named as having previously been closely associated with him.

It might not suit the board that the guy doesn't want to be named, but that's his prerogative. He might still be in prison and doesn't want his fellow inmates to know he associated with Jeremy or may be out and doesn't want his family to know. Who knows! You either believe the guy wrote to PH or you don't, that the story he wrote in the letter is true or it isn't - but if it is ........ even if it's JUST a scenario, what innocent man puts himself in scenario that makes him (even if only partially) responsible?

Admitting what? Cautious about what?

Admitting his guilt. Where's the shame in admitting who you are and what you think ?
Cautious about the minority who say he's innocent. People can be vicious.I've witnessed it in Australia with the Lindy Chamberlain case where the courtroom was full of guilters and where I was among only a handful who believed she'd been telling the truth. I'd have probably been pelted with eggs if I'd stood up and shouted innocent. This is the difference when there's a crowd who support guilt,they didn't mind being in the news the next day.
There's always safety in numbers and where you have a majority who says he's guilty,it's fine to include your name because you've got the world and his wife backing you up.

How can anyone evaluate these claims when we don't know who the source is?  Most of us don't even know anything about Harrison. 

As it stands, it is a totally worthless piece of information.

ive done a tiny bit of resarch on harrsion it was rather intresting i found out about one of leser known works.

Lookout, this isn't about you and your experiences in Australia, and I think you're being a little judgemental. None of us have any idea about this guy's lifestyle and it may be that he's not in a position to share this information with whoever he is closest to. It may have the same effect that you were concerned about when you didn't stand up and shout "INNOCENT" in that Australian court.............and you had the luxury of coming home.

Never needed anyone to back me up, when I thought he was innocent, I said so, when I realised I had make a mistake - I said so. Some people stand up to be counted and some hid behind the crowd. If I had thought the woman above was telling the truth (eggs or no eggs), I'd have said so.

Don't really understand what your trying to get at here?  Don't forget this was a pro Bamber site that was heavenly in favour of Bamber in numbers?  It has been changed by people reevaluating evidence or in my case doing their own research away from this site and nothing to do with safety in numbers?

And we've all done it independently, NOT as a soon to be/newly anti Bamber group.

There wasn't a gun under the bed, that is a myth.

The gun cupboard. Okay.

As the office stair door was locked, he would have to go through the kitchen to get to the gun cupboard.

Where was he murdered again?

He didn't have access to a firearm.

Which is possibly where he was heading  via the kitchen?

Personally I think he was just trying to get away, he'd already been shot and severely injured by then.
