Having typed many forenames and the surname Stevenson followed by Jeremy Bamber into Google, the first link which appears when I typed 'James Stevenson Jeremy Bamber' into it is for the Miscarriage of Justice website and mentions the 1996 Manchester McKenzie Report whatever that is.  I don't know whether the J Stevenson referred to in this post is the same person but maybe worth looking into further.  Any ideas? x

From what I gather it was a report set out to on behalf of Jeremy's defence....But, why did he sign that particular document as being fraudulent??????

Has anyone seen this report??????

Some people, mainly plod need to know the difference between a silencer and a moderator....

As far as my opinion stretches, the silencer was not involved in the incident and is primarily an item introduced into the evidence by persons who have distorted the incident.

Hi Jack could you put up a picture of a moderator please. We all might be talking at crossed purposes?

Will JB's own description do??

Now a silencer is what it says, it silences a gunshot just like in the movies. But they have no place in the real world and you cannot legally buy one for a gun. But the prosecution wanted to hood wink the court by suggesting that we owned a silencer which used to suggest that the shootings were carried out using stealth. No one would put a sound moderator onto a un to lower the volume of a rifle as it makes no difference to the sound we hear.

A sound moderator hardly changes the loudness of a gun’s discharge to the human ear. Its job is to stop the sonic boom reaching the rabbit before the bullet. The sonic boom is created when the gun fires like on a jet fighter or lightning and it’s a high pitched whip crack. If the rabbit hears the sonic boom first it would move out of the way.

Most of the time they go straight through it, so I guess it is irrelevant....but a body shot is usually louder IMO

Grahame.....the US Marines are trained to hit targets with iron sights on an M16 rifle at 100, 200, 300 yards.......it is a 5.56mm round (basically a .22 the same as the Armalite)

I have seen shooters with a .303 hit 10/10 with iron sights at 500 yards....

My air rifle is FAC.......I have no worries over dispatching vermin over 50 yards range.

No no. You said that a moderator goes the full length of the gun. Perhaps you could put a picture of both a moderator and a silencer so we common unknowledgeable folk could see the difference. :)

Yes I know that. But they are much bigger guns and would probably blow the rabbit to bits anyway. I'm not an expert though and I should think you could do as you say you can do? But isn't it well known among sportsmen that 45 yards is to be more certain for a kill with a .22 air rifle. I only heard that mind. As you know I am not very knowledeable in regards to guns. :)

Some arms manufacturers advertise their wares as being silent, but to what level 'silent' actually means is open to debate because a supersonic round cannot have it's report removed completely.

Moderators tend to make the report directional, thus not attracting attention from elsewhere.

Without seeing the inside of the PH one fitted to the Anshutz, I imagine it is what PH marketed as a silencer (which was used for air rifles as well)

Howver, you say 'it was used on the murder weapon' and I say it may have been fitted to it before and after the shootings; but I'll bet it wasn't on there when the weapon was being fired.

So, Jack All, Wellcome to the 'Blue'

You opine that NGB should be 'Returned To Unit' (HaHa!!), then for your explanatory posts re Guns n' rifles,  Certificates n' Licences, Mods n' Suppressors, etc ad infinitem, it is considered you are 'Off Jankers'.
Can you give the Forum the 'lowdown' on Peter Eaton's occupation being given as a Gundealer? Would this generic term include for firearms and ammunition, and other appurtenances of the ilk?

Yes that is how I interpreted it. To me it suggests that perhaps the silencer was used and that the murderer dropped the rifle end screwcap and could not find it? How do you see it?

Will JB's own description do??

Now a silencer is what it says, it silences a gunshot just like in the movies. But they have no place in the real world and you cannot legally buy one for a gun. But the prosecution wanted to hood wink the court by suggesting that we owned a silencer which used to suggest that the shootings were carried out using stealth. No one would put a sound moderator onto a un to lower the volume of a rifle as it makes no difference to the sound we hear.

A sound moderator hardly changes the loudness of a gun’s discharge to the human ear. Its job is to stop the sonic boom reaching the rabbit before the bullet. The sonic boom is created when the gun fires like on a jet fighter or lightning and it’s a high pitched whip crack. If the rabbit hears the sonic boom first it would move out of the way.

The statement on the official website is simply incorrect, in several respects.  I have pointed this out to Jeremy.

Where to start........

OK. Right, the silencer and guts that I have see pics of appear to be what PH marketed in the 80s as a silencer for .22 rifles and air rifles...........how they decided it could be suited to both I have no idea as they have an entirely different way of operating.

However, for sub-sonic ammo it may have had some limited effect but IMO, not a lot of good..........but then what would you expect for what you can still buy these days for £25 new..........

I would imagine that its effectiveness would be reduced rapidly every time a weapon was fired through it, and by the time say 30 rounds had gone through it it would have been pretty much useless (applies to air and .22 rifles)

In all fairness to PH they did suggest it would improve accuracy for both .22 and air rifles........and it very probably did, because it acts as a muzzle weight which reduces muzzle flip when the gun is fired.

Note that these days a firearms certifcate is required to buy the same item even if it is for a non-FAC air-rifle, yet I can buy a non-FAC air rifle with one fitted as standard!!

I don't / didn't know PE, 'Gundealer'...well as an RFD, he would have been permitted to deal in any weapons and ammunition that were legal at the time including antiques. That means buy, sell, or hold licensed and unlicensed guns for individuals (and authorities if requested).

He would also have the responsibilty of reporting persons known to have illegal or unlicensed weapons.

He could not have traded guns that required shotgun or firearms certificates if he was not an RFD.

I wonder why NB or JB didn't use him to supply the Anshutz.

With regards to ammo for shooting rabbits a .22 air rifle pellet is perfectly adequate.......a tiny piece of lead, compared with a sub-sonic hollowpoint bullet (and why hollowpoint..............pointless.......geddit?)...

.......in fact a decent .177 air rifle will do the job.

So why was it necssary for a .22 rifle on the farm? Did they keep chickens and a rampaging fox need to be shot?

Some arms manufacturers advertise their wares as being silent, but to what level 'silent' actually means is open to debate because a supersonic round cannot have it's report removed completely.

Moderators tend to make the report directional, thus not attracting attention from elsewhere.

Without seeing the inside of the PH one fitted to the Anshutz, I imagine it is what PH marketed as a silencer  (which was used for air rifles as well)

Howver, you say 'it was used on the murder weapon' and I say it may have been fitted to it before and after the shootings; but I'll bet it wasn't on there when the weapon was being fired.

Parker Hale have always marketed this as a sound moderator, although in the instruction leaflet they refer to the design being based on the original Maxim silencer.  Americans often use the term suppressor.

Pardon?

Take a look at PH's main trade distribution outlet funded by PH (PH don't deal direct)

Anyway, regardless of what manufacturers say because they obviously can't make their own minds up; be assured there is a difference between a true silencer and a moderator.

That proves my point.  The dealer in your link uses the term silencer.  Parker Hale's own description is sound moderator, and always has been.  There is a scan here somewhere of the instruction leaflet supplied by Parker Hale.  I still have my copies of this, and it has not changed over the years.  However it does not really matter as the terms silencer, sound moderator and suppressor are interchangeable, as I have already explained.  I own several of them, of different makes including Parker Hale, and of different calibres, both centerfire and rimfire.

It does not prove your point one iota.........The link is not to a dealer.....I did tell you that.

The company is PH and via Companies House or any search you will find that PH and Bisley / John Rothery are at exactly the same address.

However, silencer; moderator; suppressor; muzzle brake; whatever..............the d*mn thing is a red herring and I don't know why it has a hold over so many peoples' view of the shootings........ For certain, it wasn't fitted when it took place......

..........and to answer something Grahame asked , the adaptor that connected the silencer to the barrel laying on the floor is a serious indication that it wasn't fitted..............because a spanner is needed to tighten it to the barrel**......so where was the bl**dy spanner???

(**The silencer is then screwed tightly onto the adaptor by hand..........Neither adaptor or silencer can be loose as there is a distinct risk of injury to the shooter )

The classic Parker-Hale .22 calibre sound moderator has been in continuous production for over 50 years and has not been bettered. When used with sub-sonic ammunition it is one of the most effective silencers available today. Both the lightweight alloy and steel options can be easily taken apart for cleaning.

Just shows that PH didn't know what to call it...........but it certainly isn't a military standard silencer by any near means.

However, the John Rothery description for the Steel one clearly states 'Silencer' throughout..........and the aluminium ones were pretty sh*te in the 80s.

There is no adapter connecting the silencer to the rifle barrel.  The silencer simply screws onto the threaded end of the barrel.  No spanner or other tool is required, it is simply screwed on by hand.  It takes a few seconds.

Wrong again........My 525 has a threaded barrel end (almost like a S/G multi-choke) and an adaptor is screwed into the barrel, and tightened with a spanner........

....two types clearly seen on the John Rothery Wholesale website (use the same link)....

but again, immaterial..........there was no point in fitting a silencer.

I have tried in a polite manner to correct you when you have made errors.  I do know what I am talking about as I have extensive experience of firearms and I own a number of rifles and sound moderators, including Anschutz and Parker Hale.  You are simply wrong in what you say about fitting the sound moderator.  Unfortunately instead of accepting the correction with good grace you resort to denigration of me.  You clearly do not have the knowledge or experience you claim and it is important that other members are not misled.

Do yourself a favour and go to the archive section of this site.  Look at the photographs showing the Anschutz rifle used at WHF.  You will see that the end of the barrel is threaded.  When you have done that perhaps you will be good enough to agree that you have been mistaken.  An apology would not go amiss, but I will leave that for you to decide.

I have no idea how old you are so obviously cannot say whether your relevant experience exceeds mine, but for what it is worth I have over 40 years experience of shotguns and firearms.

In your previous post you attempted to suggest your knowledge was better than mine, but you obviously cannot make you mind up, which is why I said let's leave it at that......I do not intend disclosing my background.

Those photos are not clear enough to say for certain, but as far as I am concerned it is a threaded insert into the barrel end.........it is virtually the same as the OEM one in mine which has no flats either.

It is a replaceable insert in the event the threading becomes damaged whilst being used without a silencer............and despite the photo quality, if you look hard enough you can see see the thread cutting disappearing into the barrel.

FYI....I also have a PH adaptor for another silencer and an OEM Anshutz barrel end ferrule which is screwed into the barrel end when the OEM adaptor isn't in use, that way no threads inside or outside the barrel are exposed.

I give up!

Sorry Pal.

NGB is correct they are all synonymous terms. I love when people vehemently attack others who are correct in the fashion you do. 

In American English the official term is sound suppressor.

In the Queens English it is officially a sound moderator.

Silencer is informal and is used globally thanks to movies and novels which also results in the informal term being used much more often than the formal designations.

It was found August 10, turned over August 12, sent to the lab August 13, tested by the lab the same day and August 14 the lab notified police of the results of the testing- they had found human blood in/on it and that the red stuff on the knurled tip was paint. Later that same day (August 14) police went to WHF to search for the source of the paint and samples. It was turned back over to police so they could fingerprint it. The plan was for the lab to do a thorough analysis of it after police fingerprinted it out of fear they would disturb any prints that might be on it.

The rest of the month Cook took his time fingerprinting it including superglue fuming it and it sat in the evidence room for a while instead of being turned over the the lab. The Dickinson Report was critical because it said he should have turned it back over to the lab more quickly. He didn't anticipate them finding anything else of value and figured Sheila did it so wasn't concerned about them getting it. Cook and the others were as surprised as Jeremy regarding the concept of drawback and what it proved. So Jeremy was in plenty of company when it came to ignorance about drawback.

Post by: scipio_usmc on May 04, 2015, 01:38:AM
I always thought the moderator was tested in September?

The lab conducted the blood typing testing in September and that is when Fletcher tested it. In August the lab did testing to see whether suspected blood was in fact human blood and what the red stuff that looked like paint was.

If it had turned out not to be human blood they probably never would have done any further testing including not bothering to fingerprint it.  The fact human blood was found suggested it may have been used in the murders and convinced them to test it in more depth by fingerprinting it, type testing the blood and searching for the source of the paint that was on it. Cook was hoping to find Sheila's prints on it that way he could use it as evidence of her carrying out the killings.  He was bummed out by the lack of prints and didn't foresee the wrench in the works that would be posed by it after the lab analyzed it.  He figured it was useless since no prints had been found.

As a result of this he was slow to turn it over to the lab for through testing and that thorough testing thus didn't happen till September. So you are right if referring to the thorough testing.

The documents they saw didn't prove all the information available on the issues they commented upon.  They essentially claimed the documents they saw failed to fully provide a record of everything that was alleged at trial. Webster and others subsequently reviewed more documents and other information and ultimately these allegations were dropped. They didn't make their way into the 2002 appeal because by then it was obvious the claims were wrong.  Many allegations made were essentially brainstorming to try to get others to do further research or provide some idea of what to research further.

Not being privy to everything in the defense file means that we don't get to see when and why the defense ended up rejecting and abandoning various allegations.

The lack of disclosure about when and why claims were abandoned or disproved is used by the campaign team among others to press claims that have already been rejected. Such claims are useless legally but are used for propaganda purposes to try to garner public support.  There is thus a dichotomy. 

The fact the 2 CCRC opinions rejecting the latest submissions hasn't been released is similarly taken advantage of.  If the CCRC rejections were published it would eliminate the ability to use such arguments.  But since such arguments were not publicly smashed propagandists still use them. If the CCRC's reasoning were disclosed then they in order to keep pressing the claims they would have to try to rebut the criticisms.  The lawyers couldn't even manage that so clearly they would not be able to.

Webster made some extraordinarily wacky claims to the Court of Appeals including the suggestion the flake of blood was really just a flake of soot that had a little blood on it. He didn't make the claims Stevenson suggested though so that tells you the claims were subsequently refuted.

The evidence before the COA was that the flake was cut up into 5 parts, each part was dissolved, and 4 of the 5 samples produced blood grouping results.

Bubo bubo I have re-read the McKenzie report which I find unprofessional and all over the place.  In parts it is factually incorrect.  A far more reliable source re the blood evidence are the reports/letters between Bamber's defence and blood serology expert for the defence Dr Patrick Lincoln. 

Bizarre that this is without doubt the most important aspect of the case and yet only appears to have been read about a dozen times?

Webster's evidence in the 2002 appeal has got a definite match of DNA in the silencer as June's, saying that a contact shot " has put June's blood in the silencer ". This undermined what the prosecution argued.

I have always said that. The blood and silencer evidence and Mugfords witheld notes.

Forget the thousands of posts re the phone calls and forget the trick of light

Holly Goodread did tons of research on the blood evidence that could have been used

Then Webster was asked if the shot had to be a close one to get blood into it to which he answered no.

The upshot was the possibility of contamination because the silencer had been handled by various people.

Webster had remarked on the destruction of such evidence and had said " it is a bad idea to destroy evidential materials in contentious cases " to which Justice Kay answered " That is not really a matter for your expertise ".

Poor Webster was treated like an imbecile during the 2002 appeal. Yet Hayward with his basic and useless tests came out victorious. ::)
 Webster even had a colleague, another senior forensic scientist in Germany, overlook his theory which he'd said is worth consideration. The theory being that there had been a mixture of bloods.

Forgotten about in 1985.

Not brought up until decades later. By Bamber.

Source please.

The rifle was barely powerful enough to produce back spatter from Sheila. And she received two contact shots in an area of high blood flow.

Not ‘forgotten’ about in 1985 but getting to appeal should concentrate on the forensic evidence, the finding of the silencer, all blood evidence. It’s my opinion something was seen at WHF by Bews but you are never going to prove it.

The blood evidence when looked at by experts is undeniable and we don’t know yet what is being used for the application to the CCRC

Holly spent years researching the blood evidence

Thanks for that. Unfortunately I am away for a week/ 10 days and my ability to participate will be much reduced. Possibly just keeping pace with posts. I would appreciate a link to the PL  Bamber defence correspondence. It might provide some bed time reading and if too technical put me to sleep. I take it you have read the Webster report on the forum. Again this is an area which had little appeal to me because in these type of circumstances it can often be the case that it turns into an arm wrestle between scientists. In such cases it is difficult for plebs like me to decide who is right. I need to spend some time on Red seeing what HG says. I know she did a lot of work. Have you read her stuff?

The PL defence correspondence is on this thread #39 - #43 incl and in my opinion is where its at so to speak!  I was struck by an anomaly and after undertaking my own research reached a conclusion!  #40 includes a page from the McKenzie report. 

Yes I've read Mark Webster's report.  I thought his theory about the blood flake overlaying a flake of soot was wacky.  It was funny in parts when one of the judges slapped him down for daring to point out the fact that exhibits had been destroyed against all protocols.  Even funnier when the judges put forward their own theories about how blood would behave inside the silencer.  MW pointed out it fell outside his own area of expertise and into fluid mechanics but the judges were having none of it and filled the void with their own unqualified theories!  MW kept making the point that experiments and tests were needed but again the judges were having none of it!  Overall I don't think I really gleaned much from it.

I've heard mention of another forum/posters but I don't take much notice.
