The original photographic albums containing all 581 photographs associated with the investigation, was known by the title 'THE SENIOR INVESTIGATING OFFICERS, ALBUM'. This was kept under lock and key inside a safe in ACC Peter Simpsons Office..

As part of the cover up, PC Bird (SOCO) was tasked with creating a dishonest photographic schedule, consisting of only 223 photographs, which he named, 'THE MASTER COPY ALBUM'. The 223 photographs were numbered consecutively and deliberately presented as though all of them had been taken in sequence, one after the other, from 1 to 223! But it was and is a wicked lie! A lie designed to try and conceal the truth surrounding the shooting of Sheila Caffell by the police! Clearly, the 223 photographs listed in PC Birds (SOCO) ' THE MASTER COPY, ALBUM' had not all been taken in sequence..

PC Bird (SOCO) went further in his attempt to deceive Bamber, his legal team, the court which tried the matter, and the public at large! He was tasked to produce a further schedule, consisting of only 50 photographs, which was called, 'THE COURT ALBUM'. As part of this deception he produced a typed schedule showing the order and sequence with which the 50 'THE COURT ALBUM' photographs had been taken set against the sequence of 223 Photographs in his falsified 'THE MASTER COPY, ALBUM'..

You can tell that the items listed in 'THE MASTER COPY, ALBUM' are not listed in the sequence the 223 or more photographs were taken by reference to the dates provided in the left column against particular photo's..

Not surprisingly, no schedule for the 581 photographs entitled, 'THE SENIOR INVESTIGATING OFFICERS ALBUM', has ever been produced!

I am not sure. That is correct because in court bird said photo 23 was taken after photos 27 to 30 ?

It's a mess .

There were two teams of SOCO operating inside the farmhouse on the first morning of tragedy! The first team took photographs during an hour long period between 9am, and 10am. DC Oakey and another SOCO, whilst senior officers performed 'informatives' with the bodies of June Bamber, and Sheila Caffell in the main bedroom. At this time, items of furniture, clothing, the bed quilt, the rifle were all moved, taken out of the bedroom scene by the cops themselves, or as in the case of the rifle from the box room window, it was brought into the main bedroom, and placed at the main bedroom window, and on Sheila Caffells body at various times within this hour long period, so that by the time the second team of SOCO took control of the farmhouse at 10am, (Cook, Bird, Davidson, and Hammersley) the position of the two bodies (June and Sheila) had already been set by senior officers involved in the aforementioned practice of 'informatives'. Except for three photographs, and the original crime scene video, which surfaced several years ago, the rest of the crime scene photographs taken by DC Oakey (SOCO), and others, have remained withheld by Essex police and their cousins in corruption the CPS under the dishonest guise of 'public interest immunity'! This gives the false impression that cops and CPS have for over three decades been protecting the public from viewing gruesome images of victims, when if the truth be known the real reason cops and CPS have sought to withhold around 355 of the 581 photographs which were taken, is because these missing photographs which these official criminals in uniform and public office know that simply disclosing one of these such photographs will prove emphatically that the police shot Sheila Caffell dead inside the main bedroom by use of the anshuzt rifle which from around 7.15am had been placed at the first floor box room window and brought to Sheila's body in the main bedroom at a time (9.12am) when her body was laid on top of the bed, and she only having sustained or receive one shot to the neck by that stage! I have physically had possession of one such photograph, and been shown two others which show a solitary bullet hole in her neck, not two. DC Oakey took the photographs of Sheila's body laid on top of the bed when she had only been shot once! The rifle is not with her body when her body was photographed on the bed sporting a single bullet wound! The anshuzt rifle was brought from the box room to the main bedroom at 9am when senior officers set about performing 'informatives', with a view to finding an alternative explanation for the shooting of Sheila downstairs in the kitchen by a cop weapon! At 8.44am when the police surgeon, Dr Craig, pronounced Sheila dead, her body being on the far side of the bed with a rifle alongside her body, the weapon in question was the police rifle which had discharged the first shot across Sheila's neck! DC Oakley (SOCO), and DC Henderson (SOCO) took photographs of Sheila's body on top of the bed sporting only one shot to the neck, both with and without the police gun she had been shot with near her body! It is worth noting that none of the police or the police surgeon describe or identify the weapon with Sheila's body on the far side of the bed at 8.44am! This leaves it open for the police and their criminal cousins the CPS to suggest and imply that the weapon in question had been the anshuzt rifle which everyone now knows was resting at a different window in the box room at 8.44am, and this deception has been successfully carried off by a reliance upon PC Birds (SOCO) crime scene photographs which he took from 10am, onwards which shows Sheila's body in possession of that anshuzt rifle, and sporting two bullet wounds to her neck and her body no longer on top of the bed, but it had been lifted from the bed onto the bedroom floor so that 'informatives' could be carried out by senior officers! The earlier photographs taken by DC Oakey (SOCO), and DC Henderson (SOCO) which show a weapon alongside Sheila's body on the far side of the bed confirm that Sheila had only been shot once by that stage, and it is the police weapon which discharged that single bullet to her neck which was photographed in her possession, until at 9.12 am the anshuzt rifle was brought into the main bedroom from its original resting position against the box room window, and placed on Sheila's body as part of the 'informatives' being conducted by senior officers! At precisely 9.13 am whilst cops were in the process of gauging the muzzle of the anshuzt rifle against the trigger mechanism with this rifle on Sheila's body by arranging her hands and fingers, that the fatal shot under the point of Sheila's chin got discharged! Carelessly, no-one had bothered to check to see whether or not the anshuzt rifle was still loaded with live ammunition. As it turned out, this rifle had a live round in its breach! DC Oakey (SOCO) took at least one other photograph of Sheila after 9.13am which shows the barrel of the anshuzt rifle resting against the left hand side of her neck (photo' no. 26). This particular photograph was taken before 10 am! The other disclosed photographs identified by photographic numbers, 25, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32 and 33 were taken by PC Bird (SOCO) after 10 am! Photograph 23 was taken before 10 am, and therefore not taken by PC Bird (albeit he claims he took it once it came to light during the October 1986 Cheltenham Crown court trial)! But, he didn't take it! He has lied about this because he realised the other SOCO team (DC Oakey and DC Henderson) had taken it and other photographs inside the main bedroom, or looking through the main bedroom door and showing the anshuzt rifle resting against the main bedroom window, at some stage between 9.13am and 10 am, before PC Bird (SOCO) had even set foot into the farmhouse and started taking any of his own photographs! The extra garments and equipment visible in photograph 23 (taken by DC Oakey/ DC Henderson) which by contrast is totally absent in photographs taken by PC Bird (SOCO) inside the main bedroom, highlights the extent the the main bedroom scene was tampered with, and stage managed by police prior to 10 am and the introduction of the second team of SOCO (Cook, Bird, Davidson and Hammersley) to record the scene in its dishonest state after 10am, on the pretense that what was being photographed after 10 am, was a totally undisturbed crime scene, when it actual fact it was a police inspired staged crime scene!


I am trying to take this all in . Because there are some obvious differences in the crime scene photos in the main bedroom because of the chair/ chairs and what Is on the chairs.

Also how can a neatly placed pair of shoes be in the area where the police established the shots would be fired from?

Mike can you tell me if the prosecution had to establish how Jeremy would have shot Sheila to get the shots to be at the angles established?.

And why are there no statements from Montgomery?

Yes, PC Bird (SOCO), and DI 'Ron' Cook (SOCO) were both members of the second SOC team which set out to deceive everybody into believing and accepting that they photographed the main bedroom scene in its undisturbed state after 10 am, but the absolute truth was / is that by the time the second team of SOCO started to take photographs in the main bedroom after 10 am, the bodies of June and Sheila had already been tampered with during 'informatives', and by this I mean that items of clothing, property and the bodies of the two women victims, and the rifle from the box room window had already been moved, taken away, brought into the main bedroom scenario! PC Bird did not take photograph number 23 which shows the anshuzt rifle resting against the main bedroom window as viewed from the vantage point of the middle landing of the main stairs looking toward the main bedroom door with the anshuzt rifle leaning against the main bedroom window! He testified and said he took this photograph (which he did not) after photographing Sheila's body in the main bedroom in possession of the anshuzt rifle! PC Bird was / is a common Criminal in uniform, as crooked and dishonest as any criminal you or I might know! The presence of the additional items of clothing and other exhibits on the chair in the bedroom as depicted in photo' 23, and the absence of the same in PC Birds photographs (25 to 33, excluding 26 which was a crime scene photograph taken by DC Oakey (SOCO) on PC Birds own testimony during the 1986 trial) confirms that the SOC examination of the scene in the main bedroom and the taking of photographs there after 10 am, was a seriously dishonest one! PC Bird (SOCO) did not take photograph number 23, DC Oakey (SOCO), or DC Henderson (SOCO) did, it was a photograph taken prior to 10am, not afterwards. PC Bird (SOCO) did not start taking pictures until after 10 am, hence why in the sequence of crime scene photographs taken by him, in the main bedroom, there additional items of clothing and other exhibits on or in the vicinity of the chair as shown in 23, were not visible or present in any of the photographs taken by PC Bird, after 10am! In order to try and be as specific as I can be regarding this matter, all the items shown in 23 had been removed and the crime scene staged before PC Bird started taking the first of his photographs after 10am. If this had not been the case, then the items shown with the chair in photo' 23, would still have been visible in the other photographs taken by PC Bird at 10 am! They were not so somebody removed them, during the stage managing of the bedroom crime scene prior to the second team of SOC were invited into the farmhouse to record the scene on the footing that nothing had been disturbed beforehand! But, it had, items of potential evidential value, the bodies of June and Sheila, and the anshuzt rifle and Bible, were all moved, stage managed by the police before PC Bird started to take any of his crime scene photographs after 10 am!

Wasn't there some confusion about the two officers who never saw the rifle on Sheila's body,yet Montgomery was supposed to have made it safe and moved it back on the window-sill ? But how could he have moved something that wasn't there in the first place ? I don't get it.

But, it had, items of potential evidential value, the bodies of June and Sheila, and the anshuzt rifle and Bible, were all moved, stage managed by the police before PC Bird started to take any of his crime scene photographs after 10 am!

In his haste to pull off the deception that the second team of SOC sought to pull off, on the footing that they photographed an undisturbed crime scene, PC Bird (SOCO) slipped up whilst testifying during the trial, that DC Oakey (SOCO) had taken photograph number 26! Since everyone now knows that photograph 26 shows the barrel of the anshuzt rifle resting directly against the left hand side of Sheila's neck, and PC Bird (SOCO) confirmed that DC Oakey had taken this photograph, it exposes the claim made by DI 'Ron' Cook that nobody was allowed into the farmhouse until after all the crime scene photographs had been taken by PC Bird! Cook testified that a part from PI Montgomery, who was asked to check the safety or otherwise of the anshuzt rifle after Cook himself had supposedly removed the anshuzt rifle from Sheila's body, and stood it against the main bedroom window, that nobody else was allowed into the farmhouse! But if DC Oakey had taken photograph no. 26 as confirmed by PC Bird during his testimony, then what Cook was claiming has to be a deliberate lie! In addition, senior officers performed ' Informatives' during a one hour period in the main bedroom between 9am and 10 am, and lots of police officers including PS Adams, DS Jones and DC Clark visited the main bedroom and viewed the bodies of June and Shiela on the bed together! The Coroner's officer was another person who visited the main bedroom scene and who said that when he visited the main bedroom and saw the body of Sheila, that there was no gun with her body by this time (9.30am), it had already been removed from the body! How remarkable then that by10 am when PC Bird started to take the so-called official crime scene photographs, that the rifle was on Sheila's body, and cops were claiming that nothing had been disturbed until after PC Bird had finished taking all of his photographs that he started taking from 10 am, onwards! How can the rifle be on the bed in-between the bodies of June and Sheila (prior to 9.13am) when DS Jones and DC Clark visited the main bedroom scene, and the rifle not be on the body when PC Wright (Coroner's Officer) visited the main bedroom at 9.30am, and he saw Sheila's body, yet by 10 am, onward Sheila's body is in possession of the said rifle, and cops are claiming (dishonestly) that the main bedroom scenario had remained undisturbed throughout the entire morning until after PC Bird had concluded taking all of his photographs!!!

The cops in this case, staged the main bedroom crime scene, with the bodies of June and Sheila on separate parts of the  bedroom floor with the anshuzt rifle from the box room window, now in the possession of Sheila Caffells body in time for PC Bird to photograph it there, supposedly where it had always been! The funny thing is, that this rifle was seen by Jeapes and Brown resting against a first floor box room window at around 7.15am! How did it manage to be present downstairs in the kitchen to enable it to fire the first shot as per the officers report (1612) about the shooting incident in the kitchen, and upstairs in the main bedroom onto the body of Sheila by 10am, if Jeremy Bamber was the killer, and he staged his sister's death scene in the main bedroom, on the bedroom floor?

Common sense dictates that Jeremy Bamber could not have shot dead his sister on the main bedroom floor, nor could he have staged her death scene trying to portray her death there as a suicide!

You can't see it in the disclosed crime scene photographs because the quilt  is folded over, and the bedsheet was destroyed in a fire by police prior to them handing the keys back to Ann Eaton on evening of 9 August 1985..

I've seen a pic where there was blood on the sheet because the pattern of the blood was at the back of Sheila's nightdress as though she'd been sitting on the bed.

Well, I have not seen any images of the bedsheet, nor of the unfolded bed quilt! But in the photographs I have seen of Sheila's body on top of the bed, she was laid on top of the bed quilt, and she had only been shot once! Her body was laid on the left of the teddy bears as viewed from the vantage point of being at the foot of the bed! You can still see the impression of her head where it had been resting at the time Oakey or Henderson photographed Sheila laid on the bed! Cops folded that side of the bed quilt back I assume to hide any bloodstain evidence on that part of the quilt after they moved her body from the bed to the floor..

On the chair in the photo from the stair there is something with a frill round the bottom like a valance ? Can't make it out ? And what is to the right of the chair ?

There is also a black box type item on the window sill, which could be a briefcase..

It's missing from the window in other photographs taken later by PC Bird (SOCO)...
