Books on the Case

[lookout]

But he never mentioned any of this on that first morning at Goldhanger, neither did he volunteer the information under Police interrogation.

He probably didn't think if he'd been bombarded with other questions.

Well I can guess their contents already:

I THANK YOU FOR INVOLVING YOURSELF IN MY CASE ALL I CAN SAY IS THAT THERE ARE DEVELOPMENTS COMING ROUND THE CORNER THAT WILL BLOW THE LID OFF THIS WHOLE BUSINESS AND ONCE THE DOCUMENTS COME TO LIGHT I CAN GUARANTEE THAT HEADS WILL ROLL

I’M SORRY I CAN’T GO INTO MUCH DETAIL AT THE PRESENT TIME BUT REST ASSURED IT IS BEING DEALT WITH AS MY LAWYER WILL GET THE BALL ROLLING AND THEN THE PICTURE WILL BECOME CLEARER

   Quite funny, Steve. Joking aside, I am sure there is more than that.

Plus at the time he'd have known very little if anything about Sheila's illness. Even Colin had said that the Bambers never knew the full extent of her illness.

So you do admit that during Sheila's " difficult times " when her behaviour got out of hand that calls were made to Jeremy for assistance and possibly with one or two " false alarms " when he wasn't needed ?

How does anyone know what was going through Jeremy's mind after his father rang him ? Or didn't in your case which I find odd that you'd even bother to comment on if you don't believe the call happened.

However, he called Julie probably hoping that she'd drop everything and arrive to give him some moral support as for once in his life the decision was left to him and he was on his own.

No Lookout!! Absolutely not................and for one particularly good reason. We ,may ALL rest assured that IF such had been the case Jeremy wouldn't have been slow in coming forward.

You're right. I DON'T believe there was a call from Nevill. I believe they were all dead.

How on earth do you think he'd imagine how Julie was going to get to Essex using public transport at 3.30am? What was there to "drop everything" for? None of his conversation implied that he was overly concerned about anything. Didn't he say "Everything's going well"?

But he knew she'd just come out of hospital and he was present during an alleged conversation in which his parents told her of their plans to have her children fostered out, AND he gave the police a very colourful description of her illness, suicide attempts and the suggestion that she was about to be returned to the psych hospital. He seems to have been pretty clued up about her illness.

On the contrary wouldn't it have appeared suspicious if Jeremy had rattled off all he knew about Sheila's illness and really making it look as though it was her ?


At 03.30am Jeremy wasn't given any indication that anything was going on or had gone on------but that is of no interest to you is it ?

Bamber did tell the police outside Sheila was a 'nutter', 'looney', 'do lally', 'psychotic depressive' , 'had committed child abuse' & 'should be locked up'.

He also told them there were guns in the house, which Sheila knew how to use. Before drawing diagrams of where Sheila could be hiding.

But he DID, Lookout. He practically stood on his head giving them the lowdown on Sheila. He gave them her life history whilst they stood outside the farmhouse telling them in both laymen's terms and professional terms about her mental state. You've slagged off EP up hill and down dale for what you believe is their stupidity, but if they hadn't picked up that he was telling them Sheila was insane and capable of using every gun in the house proficiently, they'd have been a damn sight MORE stupid than ever you're trying to make out they were.

And where does it say all this ?

All in the statements.

Keep up.

 Right here on the forum. From various police sources.

One thing I will say about Carol Ann Lee's book is that the footnotes are there, even if not all documents quoted are available on this forum.

I'm sure it does.

You'd think people would bother to read case statments if they're going to bother commenting on the case.
