The most impossible points in the latest scenario again revolves around Nevill's call to Bamber -
Nevill lets an upset Sheila go upstairs with a loaded rifle. Not impossible. But a 1% chance.
Nevill decides to ring Bamber at 3am. Not impossible but a 1% chance.
Bamber was 'sleeping like a log' but answers the downstairs phone within 15 seconds. Impossible.
Bamber answers the phone at the exact same time Sheila starts shooting June. Not impossible but a 1% chance.
Nevill hears the upstairs shots with one ear from a quiet rifle. Resulting in him only saying 11 words. Maybe impossible (tests needed) or a 1% chance.
All this occurred in the space of one minute. For me one 'impossible' one 'maybe impossible' and three '1% chances = Impossible.
Woolly thinking and exactly how I would never approach the crime. This is just how they argue in Bain.
Until Sheila takes the gun, Nevill doesn't anticipate this, but it can happen quickly. As I say, Sheila was downstairs messing with the buckets, and Nevill heard it, June did not. This is the only explanation for June being shot while asleep, and Nevill calling Jeremy at the same time.
15 seconds is a long period. Count it. Only Bamber could be the source of sleeping like a log. So he awoke and answered the phone. Where do you get that 1% from?
I have already stated that with Sheila's two children asleep, and just a woman upstairs, Nevill does not expect her to shoot. Sheila tended to the catatonic in recent weeks, maybe she said very little before taking the gun upstairs. However you look at it, June was shot. This would definitely be heard in a quiet house, and of course the silencer was in the cupboard remember, not on the gun, Nevill heads upstairs and she turns him back with gunfire. This fits the casing positions. By now there is no need for hand to hand combat, Nevill's shoulder is disfunctional. She can swing the rifle by the barrel to further disable him before reloading. She is nowhere near the blood or the mantlepiece underside. The finger nails remain intact but she does leave a toenail polish fragment. They are both barefoot because they have both come down from bed, Sheila to rinse her bloody knickers and Nevill to see what she is up to, but in fact probably thought intruder.
And so on and so forth.
Now, should he be hanged Adam? Are you sure enough I am wrong to hang him? You must answer that for the beyond reasonable doubt test.
