Timed events, as of 7.37am, 7.38am, 7.42am, 7.45am and 8.10am, were specific - two bodies found upon entry, body of a male, body of a female, a murder, a suicide, and a further three bodies upstairs. There is no getting away from these facts, the situation is set in stone, there exist timed events confirming this scenario. Who were the three victims mentioned as 'having been found upstairs at 8.10am'?
June, Daniel, and Nicholas?
Sheila, Daniel, and Nicholas?
Think about it, first two bodies found, body of one dead male (Ralph), and the body of one female (Sheila / June), first body described as a murder (Ralph), second body described as a suicide (Sheila / June)? According to the contents of the timed police message logs, by 7.45am, that particular morning two bodies had been found upon entry to the kitchen. So, forget about the issue involving a murder, and a suicide, for one moment. Concentrate on two bodies being reportedly found in the kitchen...
A 'male body', and a 'female body', was reportedly found upon entry to the kitchen - refer to the log contents timed at 7.37am, and 7.38am. These are recorded facts, not imagination. Police work, involves documented facts, and such facts or details are usually accompanied by a reference to the time such occurences took place. There's an old saying, 'if you want to know the time, ask a policeman'...
In this instance, that is precisely what we all must do - What time did police report finding the body of 'one' dead male, and the body of ' one' dead female? Well, we know that these reports were accompanied by the timings of 7.37am, and 7.38am...
There's no getting away from the truth in this matter, the facts speak for themselves, two bodies had been found, not just a single body. a dead male body, can easily be defined as being different to the find of a dead female body, referred to in the same documented logs. A male body, as opposed to a female body, both dead, time of messages 7.37am, and 7.38am. We also know, that as a result of the discovery of these two bodies (one male, one female) that a request was made for the police surgeon and the Coroners officer, to attend the incident involving the discovery of 'two bodies' by 7.42am...
Within three minutes of these latter requests being made (7.42am), staff in the control room were made aware that one of these two reported deaths was being described as having been a murder, whilst the second death had been spoken of in terms of it having been a suicide...
By 8.10am, if all of the aforementioned were true, then obviously with it being known or believed that the farmhouse had a total of five residents at that stage, that the other three victims had to be somewhere else inside the farmhouse (alive or dead). It therefore comes as no surprise to discover, that by this stage, 'a further three bodies' were found upstairs...
Based on the contents of the police radio message log events, everything appears tickityboo, two bodies downstairs, three bodies up, supported by 'timed' log entries. Everything fits snugly into the grand scheme of things. Nothing could be any clearer. PS Adams was the Commander of the firearms operation at the scene, from around 5am, until that time (8.10am)...
Then, something went terribly wrong inside the farmhouse...
