Yes, I was trying to be a realist regarding how TV channels work.
But Neil.. if the likes of me and you can work this out between us... how has the full machinary that has been behind JB not managed to get something 'of this ilk' off the ground in the last five years? It's not like there's no sympathy for his cause!
You would only have to base the program around these two aspects in order to score a direct hit! If the relatives and Essex Constabulary were cooperative enough to provide opinions that were relevant to the remit of the program, then you include that input in the program. If they are non-cooperative or uncommunicative, then you simply, repeatedly advertise the fact that they have been invited to take part but have declined to do so.
This case is so frustrating. The decyaing prosecution case is just waiting to be knocked-down but the means to achieve this is being kept beyond reach.
A possible reason for not even trying to expose the conspiracy is that the allegations which the evidence clearly gives support to are of conduct on the part of the police and the relatives which is so appalling that such accusations would invite ridicule and a routinely dismissive attitude towards conspiracy theories. Bamber's lawyers seem to have adapted to the political reality of the case.
Some naive supporters still think that the relatives faked the silencer evidence and managed to fool the police.
The truth is that prosecution witnesses were given instructions by the police. Speaking dismissively of conspiracy theories doesn't change the evidence.
Suppose Bamber's lawyers have figured out that the relatives did not really find the silencer on August 10th. Suppose they know quite well that the police found it on the day of the killings and that the reports of finding it were retracted with the purpose creating the fiction that the relatives found it? They still might prefer to avoid making such allegations even when they have proof because of all the ramifications.
The above was the main substance of the Allegation document in which it is claimed that the police and not the relatives found the silencer and that the police told the relatives to say that they had found it. It appears now that Bamber's lawyers don't want to try to expose the conspiracy, possibly through fear of being dismissed as cranks.
Here is a summary of the contents of the allegation document.
http://jeremybamber.tumblr.com/post/1071015626/the-case-of-jeremy-bamber-condensed-from-jeremy"Documental evidence has emerged revealing that after Essex Police seized a sound moderator SBJ/1 from White House Farm shortly after the crime took place and before the 9th August 1985, a second sound moderator was found at White House Farm on the 11th September 1985, given to Essex Police and submitted for forensic examination. A conspiracy was then entered into by DI Ron Cook, DS Stan Jones, Ann Eaton, David Boutflour and Forensic Scientist Malcolm Fletcher to deceive the prosecuting authorities, the Defence and the Courts by amalgamating evidence from these two sound moderators making it appear that there was only ever one sound moderator in this case.Both David Boutflour and Ann Eaton stated that the Police were told about their discovery of the red paint on a sound moderator at White House Farm on the 10th and 12th August 1985 (Doc P20 and Doc P5). Robert Boutflour’s notes (Doc P4) reaffirm this. A further entry in Robert Boutflour’s notes for the12th August 1985 also states “Went to Maldon Police, they rang Witham Police and arranged for meeting about silencer, collected from Oak Farm later that evening”.
However, had Ann Eaton telephoned Essex Police on the 10th and 12th August 1985 regarding the finding of a sound moderator there would be a police telephone message report saying so, and there is not. Nor is there a police record of the aforementioned meeting. This is because the sound moderator was not found by Ann, David and Robert until the 11th September 1985. This is evident in Document P31 a phone message log dated the 11th September 1985 stating that “David Boutflour has found a silencer”. Document P35 Action report 88: “Collection of silencer AE (Ann Eaton) 11th September to Wright items obtained by DC Oakey”.
These references make it quite clear that the sound moderator was found on the 11th September 1985 and not the 10th August 1985 as stated in Court. The original finding of the first sound moderator SJB/1 was then concealed to give the impression that only one sound moderator was ever found, on the 10th August 1985. Document P7 DI Cook appears to have swapped the forensic reference number from SBJ/1 to DB/1 and finally to DRB/1 in order to confuse the identity of the first sound moderator with the other: being the same make and model this was easy for the police to do."
