I did hear that but didn't want to assume it was correct that it wasn't made an exhibit.  YH reasons that the police knew it didn't have anyone else's blood on it because they themselves were the people who used the coal scuttle at the scene, therefore it wasn't made an exhibit.

When Jeremy became a suspect, why didn't police seize the coal scuttle for forensics? Isn't Jeremy supposed to have placed Nevill's head on top of the coal scuttle?

Not sure what you mean. Surely it follows that if JB a suspect, then scuttle is relevant?

It was literally covered in blood, it was probably thrown out in the clean up, when they thought Sheila was the killer.

The motives of a killer are unique to them but you're getting the idea as far as Sheila is concerned.

I'm pretty sure the the killer's motives were to send her children to the other side, which she did by shooting them in the face while they slept.  If Sheila had survived, I expect that her legal team would have successfully argued for some kind of diminished responsibility.  With regards to the nitty gritty of her motives, that would have taken getting inside Sheila's head in the run up to the incident and during the incident.  Sheila would also need to be able to recall those raging delusions herself, something which she may have refused to do or been unable to do, had she survived.

It serves no purpose for Jeremy to move Nevill.  It doesn't implicate Sheila because she couldn't have moved Nevill herself.  Therefore, it can form no part of some imagined blame game on Sheila by Jeremy. I don't know whether Nevill was moved or toppled, or his position was some how accidental according to the laws of physics.. but at least I want to know.


But you're convinced of the police finding reason. Mmm?

What makes you think they didn't?  It was the police who had to force entry and the police who then managed the scene right up until the bodies were removed.

Women with paranoid schizophrenia who kill, the victims often include their children, usually they are cleared of murder due to insanity, as in the case of Rainwell who killed three people with a hammer and a spade.

I always thought if Jeremy was gulity he would have positioned nevill as close to the kitchen phone as possible to ' add creedence to his scenario '

Nevill was a heavy dead weight.

Was probably just a case of using the nearest available items to put him in position - chair & coal scuttle.

Nevill was then in the perfect position to have his back burnt and have more head shots.

If nevill for example was to " drop the phone"

From a gulity Bamber scenario

" The phone went dead "

Do you believe Bamber wanted to create the impression nevill then got shot to death adding creedence to the telephone call, or he put the phone down to see to the urgent matter ?

It suited Jeremy not to have to embellish a story from a man far smarter than himself. One of the motives for the murder was he felt a total lack of empathy for any of them.

In a Sheila scenario Nevill died a long time after ringing Bamber. So did not need to be near the kitchen phone.

So doubt Bamber instantly thought Nevill had to be near the phone. He wasn't that sharpe.

He just used the nearest things - chair, coal scuttle.

No, because he told Julie he'd had a mental blank during the crime and thus exacted revenge for all the perceived injustices of the past in that one moment.

Forget  detectives writing stuff down giving him more time. He held his own in the numerous interviews.

Very much so -

Over 30 'No comments' & 'can't remembers'. Over 10 -don't knows' & 'can't say'.

He was placed in a position so that his backside was exposed to anyone entering the kitchen - you read it how you like. That's how he was 'displayed' - even YOU think he was placed there but EP would have no reason to display him in such away but a son with a grievance might - it's not the first time such things have happened.

I expect it was gravity and expedience rather than deliberate. He was either toppled in to that position of lifted for some reason by several coppers. Why would Jeremy want to portray Sheila as having pulled her father's pyjama bottoms down?

I'm saying Jeremy may have lost control of Nevill's state. If the marks on Nevill are from the Aga he may have been moved off that apparatus by police, though there was a suggestion that Jeremy had placed him behind the door deliberately. I don't know whether Nevill's flesh was exposed to the heat of the Aga for sufficient a time for the marks to be made.

I don't follow.

If gulity Jeremy Bamber was only leaving the farmhouse satisfied everyone was dead.

What ever happened after ( police in WHF) is out of his control.

His primary focus is sticking to his story

If it was possible for Nevill to fall & stay in the position in the photos, then that is what happened.

Otherwise Bamber lifted him into that position to burn his back and shoot his head.

Sheila was not strong enough to lift him.

Everyone's scenarios are all over the place at the moment.Not sure who thinks the police moved Nevill and who doesn't.Regarding this,you also have to decide when the final four head shots were inflicted.

What I am getting at is,if Nevill was moved to the scuttle after death and rigor mortis had set in,why is he curled up in a ball?
What I mean is,if JB shot and killed Nevill before he fell abainst the Aga,why did his body curl up?
Isn't that a strange position to fall into once yout stone dead after four head shots? And make no mistake about it,none of the four final head shots could have been inflicted once Nevill hit the floor lying on his right side,no way.

Sheila was shot in the brain and instantly fell down flat,June was shot twice in the head and was found in a similar pose.Why did Nevill curl up so tightly when he fell to the floor after his head shots,is this possible? Can instinct cause you to curl up with your knees touching your chin more or less without any brain function?

Knees tucked in and arms outstretched.Again,how could you stretch your arms out straight with no brain function to do so?
YET,for those of you who think Nevill was moved from the Aga by the police after rigor mortis had set in,this must indeed be the position he was lying in in front of the Aga.

Lucky that Nevill stretched both arms out in front of him after he was dead,this looks natural once he was moved to the scuttle with them hanging down towards the floor,just as gravity would have done had he died there.

No,I really dont think Nevill was moved by anyone,he was shot slumped over the scuttle with his arms hanging down.

I'm sure Jeremy Bamber had a preconceived plan. But things didn't go to plan, to which the two shots to Sheila and the scuffle with Nevill attest.

If Nevil is lying against the Aga unconscious then Bamber would just finish him off where he lay, he would not mess about placing him over the chair etc. with all the risk this entails stepping in blood etc.

I am afraid Steve the Crown have no plausible JB scenario, absolutely no aspect is plausible please at least be honest.

I do not think he was shot four times in the head before adopting that position maybe once. The fact is the other three could have been made by SC and just happened to be close to the existing one. I do have another suggestion it can be found in this link.

https://jeremybamberforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,10682.msg530610.html#msg530610

of course the other possibility is that they were administered just before he collapsed for the last time or his head had 'flopped' into a position which allowed this when he was pinned against the Aga

Thanks Bubo.If June was tending Nevill while he was against the Aga,wouldn't this action cause him to move or be moved by June therefore his back would not be firmly against the Aga continually for the marks to form?
Doesn't your scenario work just as well without the police moving Nevill Bubo? They could still have accidentally killed June and used the Aga couldn't they? What would be the difference?

I believe he was shot four times upstairs and then subsequently beaten.

I believe he got back downstairs to the kitchen and slumped on the chair before receiving the final four head shots.


Obviously including the struggle in the kitchen and the aga. And the burns

No because once he had died she retreated to the box room. I believe he was stuck against the Aga possibly his PJ top pierced by the handle (see shape and location of tear) and was incapable of much independent movement and was too heavy a dead weight for June to move him

Yes,he may well have been attached as it were by his pyjama jacket getting torn and snagged to an Aga handle Bubo,this would also have moved the jacket to the side and allowed the hot parts of the Aga direct contact with Nevills skin.

I expect it was gravity and expedience rather than deliberate. He was either toppled in to that position of lifted for some reason by several coppers. Why would Jeremy want to portray Sheila as having pulled her father's pyjama bottoms down?

Gravity couldn't have allowed him to fall in that position. I didn't say he  did - I SAID that's what HE did but by the same token, why would the police leave him in that position? This has to be the most ridiculous suggestion yet - the police would have had NO REASON to move the body of Nevill - absolutely none!

Most of the blood was around Nevil where he was found, and according to some statements the pool or blood was getting larger?

So if you are saying that JB could not risk footprints I don't think he would be playing a prank like this. He had better things to do like give the silencer a good clean, or even easier just place it beside Sheila and ruffing her up so it looked like she had been in a fight.

The night of the WHF tragedy

« on: July 30, 2023, 03:36:PM »


As I have consistently maintained nobody knows all that happened after JB left and the time the TFG entered. It is foolish to pretend otherwise. It must be remembered that at the heart of this tragedy was a lost young woman with huge mental health issues. Supposedly schizophrenic and liable to psychotic episodes involving self- harm and possibly presenting a danger to others.

 It is not possible to predict behaviour or to understand the thought processes of a person so inflicted. Rational explanations based on normal behaviour are pointless as what they choose to do at any particular moment is hugely unpredictable. They can act in ways that appear to be a totally illogical to others.

He couldn't place the silencer beside Sheila because she couldn't reach the trigger with it attached. Most of the blood in the kitchen was found on the floor near the telephone area, though there were pools by Nevill which he had tried to halt by placing the cushions there to mop it up.

Of course he could leave the silencer beside Sheila, she cannot reach the trigger so she unscrews it and places it beside her. Which is what JB would have done, instead he places it in the cupboard without cleaning it where sooner or latter it will be found.

He has every opportunity to go back latter and tidy up loose ends but instead lets the relatives have the keys. You expect me to believe this?

But wasn't the blood in the silencer, not the rifle? He doesn't have an opportunity to step inside the farm post-murders, apart from breaking in mid-September, which must seem suspicious even to the innocent diehards.
