To what plight do you refer?

Jeremy Bamber is guilty!

Once again you are stating JB is guilty when it's pure speculation
This is why most of the people are on here believe it is an unfair conviction
You were not there

Neither was Michelle Bates but the way she writes you'd think she had a ringside seat.

Steve,Michelle's already has first hand knowledge of how the system works---------or doesn't,as in her brother's case and she would have fought tooth and nail to see justice done as it should be.

The way her story comes across seems false to me. There were no news cameras to witness someone pacing back and forth in an upstairs window. There were no hourly bulletins on television or radio dissecting the latest developments as they unfolded. The whole tale has been regaled in order to get her into the limelight to flog any forthcoming book. Had she been a resident of Witham or some local village I might just have accepted what she said.

Judge for yourself:


Becoming aware of a breaking-news story I began to listen in more closely. A siege was taking place at a farmhouse in England. The broadcaster relayed that five people were inside and there was great fear for their safety. As the story unfolded it became apparent that this was an older couple. A farmer and retired Magistrate, Nevill Bamber and his wife, June; their daughter, Sheila, and her six year old twin sons. Jeremy, their son, was outside with police who were trying to communicate with someone inside the house who had been seen pacing back and forth in front of an upstairs window and carrying a firearm. The reporter said that police were reluctant to get too close to the house for fear of causing that person to become more agitated, thereby, escalating the danger to the family. I watched for an hour or so but there was no resolution and, heavily pregnant, I became exhausted and had to go off to bed.


Awaking early I was anxious for news, hopefully of a rescue, so I put the News on immediately. The siege was over, police had stormed the house and five bodies had been found inside. I was heartbroken, a whole family! My heart went out to the young man who had waited all night long with the police for news of his family; this was not what he wanted to hear.

That is total garbage!
