Take a long hard look at the end of the gun barrell as it leans against the main bedroom window - does it have it's Parker Hale silencer fitted at that stage?

Yes,because if it hadn't,it would have slid further to the side without the balance of the extra length to hold it.

I mentioned this years ago Mike. I remember at the time Hartly said he would be delighted. as it would prove that Sheila had not shot herself.

I know my maths/spacial awareness is crap, but I'd have thought that the heavier an object, the more likely it would be that it's weight would pull it sideways? Would not a silencer have given it added weight?

The weight was in the base,not the top ! The shorter the length of something would have caused the base,being heavier, to have shifted but a silencers length would have given it more balance because of the height alone.

So because that silencer was removed by Sheila,in the bedroom,it must have been found in the bedroom------by whom and whereabouts ? That would account for her blood having been on it  ??
Who then put it in the gun cupboard ? Always supposing that's where it was found,which I don't believe.

I'll need to put that into practice :-[

You do that. There's a better balance with a longer,solid-based object leaning against a curtain,than there is with an item which is shorter.

I have been reliably informed that when cops brought the anshuzt rifle from its original location against the first floor box room window to Sheila's body, after her body had been moved from on top of the bed in that bedroom, brought there as part of 'informatives', where cops were wanting to see if they could account for the only shot to her neck at that stage by claiming that she had shot herself with that rifle (the first shot was from a police weapon in kitchen)! However, it proved that with the silencer fitted to the barrell of the rifle that the distance between the muzzle end of the silencer and the trigger mechanism of the gun was greater than the distance between the position of the solitary entry wound upon Sheila's neck and her extended right arm with trigger finger outstretched!!

This discovery was disheartening to the officers who were huddled around Sheila's body on the bedroom floor! One of them argued that he thought it might be possible at a push to 'squeeze the weapon into the aforementioned gap' so that Sheila could be said to have self inflicted that single shot to herself! The officer in question carelessly repositioned the anshuzt rifle with its silencer attached on her body and arranged the fingers of her right hand in the region of the trigger mechanism! At the time the muzzle end of the silencer was resting under Sheila's chin, about a couple of inches or so, above the solitary bullet wound on her neck at that stage!

Bang!!!

Second shot got inflicted! The path of the bullet traveling up through the base of Sheila's mouth, up through the roof of her mouth, and depositing itself in her brain!

If she hadn't been already dead, she was by the time this second shot had got inflicted! The pathologistgist (Peter Venezis) would conclude that once this shot had been received death would almost certainly have been instantaneously!!

I don't think it's on. I think the shadowy bit makes it seems longer than it is.

Given how blurred is the picture, it COULD have been doctored. It has been known.

I recreated this scene in a 3D rendering program. I have no doubts about it. There was no silencer attached.

This is why grainy pictures aren't reliable for anything.

The best thing to do would be to look at another photo of it,as admittedly there are a lot of variations on all the pics.
Trouble is,we're going to be hard-pushed to find " truer " pics of them.

Didn't Bamber take to silencer off after shooting everyone. Then put it away ? This was the reason the gun on Sheila didn't have a silencer on.
