Are these the reasons that Taff Jones always said that JB was innocent? Did he know what had actually happened here? How many of members of the police force would have been involved in this cover up? Hard to believe that they have all kept silent about it for over 30 years.
They have not kept silent about it, that's just it!
The vast majority of the 6/8 man raid party which were the first armed officers to enter the farmhouse, have all been granted immunity from prosecution for allowing their names to be used in edited composite typed witness statements made in their names by other officers where it falsely states that they found only the body of Neville Bamber downstairs in the kitchen, and four bodies upstairs! This presentation is a falsehood! They originally were confronted by Sheila as they tried to enter the kitchen, and she got shot! They thought she had been killed, and reported two dead bodies in the kitchen upon entry! An officers report exists regarding this shooting incident! In that report it is being argued that Sheila pulled the muzzle of the police weapon into towards her throat at the time the shot got discharged! It states that the sudden thrust of the barrel into towards her throat inadvertently caused the trigger to be activated involuntarily - hence why her death was reported by 7.45am, as a suicide! Many of the original 6/8 officers who first entered the main bedroom allowed typed composite statements to be created falsely stating that Sheila's body had been found on the main bedroom floor in possession of the rifle! It is all a pack of lies!!!
Ann Eaton and the other relatives spoke to Stan Jones about Sheila's body having been moved from on the bed, to the floor!
They reminded him that he had told Anne and the others, on the first morning of the shootings, that he had seen Sheila's and June Bambers bodies laid on the bed side by side, with the rifle in-between their bodies, and a Bible on Sheila's chest! They wanted to know how June's and Sheila's bodies had ended up on the bedroom floor either side of the bed, and how the rifle had ended up in Sheila's possession!!!
Stan Jones was caught between a rock and a hard place!!!
At first he was helpless to explain to the relatives! Stan Jones felt like he was in the firing line, over something he could not answer about! Senior officers initially froze him out of the loop! But when it became obvious that Stan Jones was not going to keep quiet about the matter, they had to divulge the truth eventually!
