Jeremy's Character

[Steve_uk]

All hasn't been lost with Jeremy's education such as it was as he's enabled it to be turned into a more positive form by all the studying and learning that he's managed to do since those days. A study which is miles away from the norm but which will prove effective in his forthcoming release.

The tragedy is his Gresham's days prepared him better for incarceration in prison than working life on White House Farm. I don't believe this crime was inevitable: there was the interlude at Little Chef, where he was trying to find his own inner self, not forgetting his two years at Chelmsford College where he rendered a good account of himself, offering lifts to fellow pupils in the less stuffy atmosphere evoked by public school.

I don't have the books in front of me and cannot recall the occupants of the vehicle, but I have heard this before, though I think it was only on the one occasion. He must have stored the bitterness inside in a state of quiescent rage, vowing revenge one day, and I am once again reminded of the Jubilee photo where this young boy seemed uncertain of his place, unable to emulate Nevill yet unsure of June, who in the next few years would relapse into a religious mania which removed his only buttress against a hostile outside world as she too excoriated him for his lifestyle choices.

Steve your posts never fail to amuse me !!!

Steve,  memory makes me think there was a row at a family party -at Wix?- and rather than wait for a lift(or because he was refused a lift?) he walked back. I believe I saw 19 miles quoted. I think there was another occasion when he removed himself from a car and finished a journey on foot. Certainly quiescent rage comes to mind.

Or yours April !

You know Jane I sometimes get the feeling that Jeremy is repeating things he heard from June, and maybe in fairness at seventeen years old in a light-hearted way. One recalls his remark to Roger Wilkes that it wasn't until 1978 that problems arose, though of course there is no further elucidation in any of the books on the case.  After her second illness June began moralizing again, affecting both Sheila and Jeremy, and maybe anyone in his position would reject what she was saying. The tragedy is that there were no roots as a family, no bond on which to fall back on of cheery, carefree times: just a void, wherefrom emanated the germination of an idea that all were incapacitated in some way and that meaningful life had ended for them,his justification for killing the twins being that they too would in time become affected by this void as had Jeremy in his turn. The practical side of him however, the Jeremy who had facts and figures to hand at the Osea Road board meetings was not going to run the risk of June leaving a substantial legacy to the Church, or of disinheriting him altogether, as he told Julie was his main concern.

Steve I reckon you could write a book like Paul Harrison

It's important to me Nugs when I read the lies on this forum that Jeremy hated his Sister and parents and hated farming
I know it's all lies because of the people I have spoken to personally who he went to school with and people who live in the village

I wouldn't want to profit from this wicked crime, which is why I support Mike and Lookout even though I don't agree with them because I believe they are sincere people with genuine motives.

He told the Police outside the White House that he didn't get on with his sister. He told Roger Wilkes that things were fine until 1978..

He didn't get on with her or hated her ?

People on here like to make out he hated Sheila

It's quite irrelevant what others say of him when he told police, of Sheila "I don't like her and she doesn't like me".

I don't think he was close enough to her to feel anything like an emotion as powerful as hate.

Well said Steve, I agree.

So you don't think Jeremy would have had to hate Sheila to kill her

[Caroline]

So you don't think Jeremy would have had to hate Sheila to kill her

Of course not, he didn't kill her because he hated her, he killed her to inherit.

[Jane]

So you don't think Jeremy would have had to hate Sheila to kill her

I don't think it was necessary for him to have hated any of them, Jackie. I think they were merely encumbrances standing between him and the future he planned for himself.
