Mary Mugford's court testimony was a real eye opener. It made it clear that Bamber would feel no remorse if June died. I will post it below.
A supporter accused Mary Mugford yesterday of lying under oath but could not explain why Bamber agreed with her in his court testimony. Bamber also testified and has said on other occasions he had a poor relationship with June. For obvious reasons he never said this in such a forthright manner as Mary Mugford.
James Richards also testified that Bamber told him three times that he "hated his parents". Richards saying Bamber said this with venom. Bamber denied saying this & said Richards & everyone else in court had lied about him. Although Richards had no motive.
The judge asked Bamber why Richards would come to court and say this as well as telling Bamber to speak up as he unconvincingly accused Richards of lying.
It is a bit of a contradiction as Bamber is agreeing with Mary Mugford & saying himself he had a poor relationship with June, but then disagreeing with James Richards.
As a juror I would find both Mary Mugford & James Richards testimonies very influentical.
In my opinion Mary Mugford had no motive to lie ...
But Jeremy and Sheila both disliked their parents strongly ....
They were both tied to their parents by financial strings ...
I am sure they had some good moments together with their parents ...
It is human nature that Jeremy would emphasise the good times and not the bad ....
He explained on interview his relationship with his mother had been "improving" ....
But because Sheila and Jeremy fundamentally disliked their parents ....
It brings us NO CLOSER to working out was it Jeremy or Sheila ?
Based on their dislike of their parents it was equally likely to have been either of them ....
Do not forget Sheila had some very strange thoughts about June and her children and a coven of evil ....
