How it started

[Caroline]

EP had their " smoking gun " but chose not to arrest JB until a year later. ( blood in silencer ? )

Jeremy wasn't arrested a YEAR later, it was a month later!

[lookout]

Why would they have been looking for any? It wasn't as if Sheila was trying to leave by a window.

How do you know ? She could have been wanting to escape ? Or her parents for that matter.

Think she might have just tried the door?

And released on bail--free to go abroad ?? They had the " proof " under their noses for God's sake,then blow me,decided a year later that it was him ??
Passports are confiscated for arrested " murderers ) for obvious reasons !

He wasn't arrested for murder until AFTER he returned from the holiday. Where did you get that he was arrested a year later?

Lookout gets carried away & has said more than once that Bamber was arrested a year after the massacre.

His conviction was around a year later.

[Adam]

Timeline says Bamber was found guilty at court on the 14th October 1986.

[Adam]

Bamber's arrest & charge was in September 1985. The month after the massacre.

It would have been sooner but Bamber was on holiday in St Tropez.

I'd read some time ago that his arrest at Dover was to do with " previous offences " than the actual murder. When someone has previously offended they're drawn in for questioning on those offences by way of " getting their man " should there be a more present day offence.
This happens when there are so many MOJ's when a person already holds a record for an offence/s that it's " assumed " they're top of the list for further crimes committed.

Commonly known as giving a dog a bad name.

I think it's damn lousy of EP not to hand over the documents that are needed. This is not justice nor democracy.

Sunday 8 September 7:45am

Jeremy Bamber arrested at Moreshead Mansions on suspicion of the five murders. Questioned for three days. DCI Taff Jones has first crack and messes up. DS Jones realizes Jones's mistake and whilst escorting him to the interview room for his turn remarks:

"You did it, didn't you. I know you did it from the second day. You won't get away with this. You're sick, you need help."

Friday 13 September

Bamber is arrested for the Osea Road break-in and granted bail until 16 October by Chelmsford Magistrates Court.

Monday 16 September

The Michael Fielder photographs scandal. Jeremy and Brett flee to St. Tropez by car.

Sunday 29 September

Jeremy returns from France and is arrested at Dover for the murder of five members of his family.

[lookout]

So all suspected murderers are allowed to hang on to their passports ? Well that's something worth knowing !


Everything said by SJ was autosuggestion,as questioned to JB,until he,Jones,had convinced HIMSELF !

How did they manage that 

With one of these? 

[Kaldin]

Which part of the window do we think could be locked from outside?

The side hung casement? Or the top hung fanlight?

The side casement window. However, there was a bottom horizontal catch which couldn't be put back on the peg from the outside.
