We are being spoiled with new scenarios -
"Sheila was not up all night, she went to bed as usual.
However, she felt her period begin, and rose to deal with it.
Finding significant blood staining, she went to the kitchen with her knickers and filled a new bucket with water to soak the garment.
She made enough noise, filling it, or putting the heavy bucket on the floor, to alert Nevill, who at 3 am not only was alarmed sufficiently by noise to investigate a possible intruder, but remembered that gun in the kitchen.
At this point I will remind everyone of a representative passage from Carol Anne Lee.
‘We had coffee at the kitchen table, just the three of us. Sheila was at the head, opposite the door, where she usually sat, I was on her left and her mother was on her right. For a while she just sat there, looking very weak. Mrs Bamber and I were chatting and suddenly Sheila said: “All people are bad and deserve to be killed.” She just came out with it. But she wasn’t herself anyway. Her eyes would look right past you. I only saw her once more after that. I was indoors, watching her cross the yard. The geese were about – perishing things, they used to cackle and chase people. But on this particular occasion I saw Sheila walking across the yard, her body and legs very stiff, staring straight ahead. She moved through the geese as if they weren’t there.’
This is the Sheila of mid 1986, taciturn, catatonic, alarming.
What occurred in that kitchen is speculative, but Jeremy has told us of the fractious conversations earlier in the evening.
How did going crazy manifest itself, was there much said? Clues can be wrested from the fact June never woke up again.
There was not enough to wake the "light sleeping" June, though 3 am is a time when sleep is now deep.
As Sheila glides up the stairs Nevill is phoning Jeremy. He takes a while to answer , and by the time he does, Sheila has figured how to load that gun, and the shooting begins.
Nevill gets to the top of the stairs, and takes those terrible and debilitating wounds to his face, turns, and as the last two bullets catch his left arm from behind, slithers to his resting place in the coal scuttle. Sheila beats him or reloads to finish. It is irrelevant what injuries besides gun shots were inflicted, she is capable of everything without a blemish to her person.
This account fits the known evidence, Jeremy in Goldhanger, June asleep, Nevill being disabled with gravity to assist to his resting place, no controversy about a phone call by an injured man, no bikes or wetsuits, no clothes to disappear, no shots by another to an awake human being matching suicide trajectory.
Absent a point by point counter to this with sensible and considered reason, I will contact the Home Office and resolve the WHF mystery for them".
