Little is known about this character-------I wonder why ? I know she'd had a relationship with MM and also that she wasn't averse to the odd " snort " of cocaine. Both her and JM were together on the night before Liz went to the police----------------making up their story,perhaps ?? Pretty odd to me.

If little is known about her, then there is not really anything for you to base such assumptions on.

But why would they ? It does seem to me they were trying to get Julie to go to the police and I don't think they would risk telling lies ?

But nothing Julie told them was specific truth about the crime that no one else knew ?

So we are no further forward really .

We are never going to know if Julie got a call tipping her off about Jeremy being in the frame and perhaps taking her down with him.

We just don't have the evidence .

But a member of the family knew didn't he because he let it slip to Colin . Up to that call he did not have a clue.

You'll find that she'd slept with her best friend's boyfriend as well as MM,so the " scorned " conversation would have been the highlight of both women.
Go back 4/5 years and test your memory.

Why would Julie know something about the crime that no one else knew? She was fed by Bamber who told her a hit man was responsible. Good thing Colin didn't have suspicions or he'd be called a liar too.

Because if Jeremy had told her what he had done and risked her going to the police at all why give her a load of rubbish .

He would either confess or if he thought she had not cottoned on just keep quiet.


He is either clever or stupid ? Which is it .

None of us actually know what was going on in Julie's mind in those last few days . Except she was upset about being dumped obviously.

But if she wanted to get some form of revenge on Jeremy then would she have thought that mentioning those things to her friends would have resulted in them forcing her to go to the police ? Why did she resist going even when she had told 4 people? Did she hope they might just don him in and give him a bit of a scare ?

Or she was telling the truth and was just to scared to try and explain to the police why she had not come forward earlier ?

Because on that date as far as I understand thenpolice had nothing else concrete to go on except what RB had gone in to tell them?

Or perhaps JM started asking questions, ("you did it didn't you?") and JB gave her a story rather than admit he directly carried out the murders.

I don't think we can say with any certainty exactly how this played out. It is however quite feasible that it did.

The only thing that is feasible to me is that Julie Mugford was obsessed with Jeremy, she could not bare the thought of him being with anyone else and as a prolific liar was capable of anything in revenge and to top it off sold the story for fame and fortune posing without knickers

If she wants to talk -NOW? After all these years?- I imagine she'll already have spoken, in confidence, to an appropriate person. The NOTW has no more to do with her than it has to do with us. She probably felt about it the way many of us do, but that's her business, and not, I believe for public consumption. I can only say that if I'd been on the periphery of something so terrible, there's NO way I'd speak publicly about it.

Or perhaps she was just a drama queen and never thought her friends would go to the police . By then she was in a very awkward predicament. I know a few people like that . Good at telling lies until it just happens sometimes without thinking of the consequences.

The fact is what she said was not true , there was no hitman , the bible was not on her chest and the rest was a concoction of stuff that had probably been in the papers .

I think back then, there were less liberal views of such things, particularly from older people.

Adding things to perhaps show Jeremy in a bad light, yes it's quite possible and perhaps even likely. Many are guilty of this even now whilst discussing the case from different viewpoints. Heck some posters even seem to do it to each other whilst trying to hammer their points home.

It was on the 10th of Sept.1985 that both JM and LR went to a hotel with a couple of men they'd just met.
I don't imagine the meeting would have been discussing the weather. No,it entailed a round of cocaine !

This is/was the same " friend " who'd rang the police to say that JM was withholding evidence------before flying off to Malta for a holiday with JM.
With friends like that you don't need enemies.

It has since been picked up and repeated as a fact, each time I have seen it, I have tried to correct it but some people just don't want to listen because it gives LR a reason for going to the police.

Some notes here gleaned from Carol Ann Lee's book:

1983-Liz Rimington worked as a waitress at the Frog and Beans pub in Colchester. She is the girlfriend of Malcolm Walters, one of the owners. She would often see Jeremy and Suzette Ford canoodling in a corner whilst her husband babysat the children at home. Jeremy told Liz Nevill and June didn't approve of the relationship and Nevill had threatened to disinherit him if he didn't end it, which he did.

Autumn 1983 Liz is now Michael Deckers' girlfriend, and he and co-owner Malcolm Waters have now sold the Frog and Beans and bought Sloppy Joe's, an American-style pizza parlour. They employ one of Liz's friends, Julie Mugford, as a waitress. Liz is now manageress.

June 1984 Liz has a one night stand with Jeremy, who is now Julie's regular boyfriend. Liz gets the impression that Jeremy has been unfaithful to Julie throughout their relationship. Jeremy tells Liz he has plans to rob an expensive house in Goldhanger but nothing seemed to come of it. Jeremy tells Liz the Bambers intended to adopt the twins and send them to boarding school.

More to follow.

Saturday 10 August 1985

Jeremy, Julie, Liz and Charles Marsden meet in Colchester to go bowling. Julie tells Liz:

Jeremy is so cold, he just doesn't care about anything. Believe me, if the devil has a human form on this earth then his name is Jeremy. He's the devil incarnate.

Liz: "He may be in shock.."

Julie: "If only you knew.."

Thursday 15 August

Liz, Julie, Jeremy and Brett go shopping in Colchester for the funeral.

Brett to Jeremy in front of Liz: "Buy yourself something really slick. You're inheriting all this money. Play the part."

They later drive to the Farm, where Jeremy searches for money which might have been hidden away.

Later at Bourtree Cottage Jeremy "delights in the fact that his father has weakened with age in the months before his death." He "might have married Julie and stayed in Goldhanger forever, but "with all this happening" his life would be different."

Julie tells Liz she has parted with Jeremy.

Liz: "You're lucky that you're rid of him."

Julie: "You don't know the half of it."

Julie then tells Liz the whole story, and Liz urges her friend to go to the Police.

Friday 6th September

Liz persuades Julie to tell Malcolm Waters, who then urges Liz to telephone Police on Julie's behalf. At 4pm Liz puts a call through to Witham Police Station.

Fact
A nasty scheming trainee teacher who lied
Great role model

She probably did lie about lots of things - so did Jeremy, but how does that make him innocent?

Obviously because we only have her word what Jeremy said to her

Her criminal record, her jealousy, her twisted mind, not wanting anyone else to have Jeremy

She's got a lot to answer too
She gets dumped by Jeremy and goes berserk only later to find out he had slept with her best mate

That must have tipped her over the edge

I'd be interested to know from ngb1066 and Petey exactly what hearsay can be allowed in court. For example James Richards was allowed to testify that Jeremy told him vehemently "I hate my f***ing parents" and I don't see why Liz Rimington's testimony is any different. In the David Bain case there was fierce legal argument over Dean Cottle's incest evidence(disallowed in the first trial) and it was this which swung it for Bain in the retrial 13 years later.

Evidence of what a defendant has said is in law not hearsay, and therefore in principle is admissible in evidence.  Evidence of what a third party other than the defendant has said is hearsay and normally inadmissible.

Supporting evidence to 'confirm there was an attack alarm' which was activated from within the farmhouse by 3.29am, is contained in 'a police telex message' log. All types of alarm such as 'intruder alarms' and 'attack alarms' which were fed directly through to the police are 'automatically recorded' there as one of many telex messages 'when' activated! The times that police units got deployed to respond to such occurences are 'also' recorded! There is little doubt from what I have seen that 'PC Myall' left to go to the farmhouse 'long before the occupants of CA07' containing 'PS Bews' and 'PS Saxby' did! The telex message log I have seen has 'the occupants of CA07' being deployed to the incident at '3.45am', not 3.35am! Bonnetts 'handwritten note' that the occupants of 'CA07' were deployed to the incident at '3.35am', and that they 'arrived' there at '3.48am', is false! From his console (6) in the incident room 'he typed' in the fact that 'CA07 were deployed at 3.45am', hence why in the police 'telex message' log it 'flagged up' correctly as 3.45am! The handwritten version of 'Malcolm Bonnetts' 3.26am log, therefore has 'misleading information' recorded upon it and in it. He 'typed' in at his keyboard that 'CA07 had been deployed to the incident at 3.45am', which was 'after Jeremy called Chelmsford police station' at 3.36am, why would he record the time 'inaccurately' as though they had been deployed '10 minutes' earlier? The answer seems clear to me, the handwritten phone log made by 'Malcolm Bonnett', was 'not' written up contemporaneously, it was made up and 'written out much later' on another occasion! Probably after the 'nature of the police investigation altered' from 'four murders and a suicide', into 'five murders', by which time the 'audio recordings' of Neville Bambers 3.26am call to Witham police station which 'got diverted' to Chelmsford incident room by the 'automated service' deployed back at Witham because there was 'no-one' available to take Nevilles call at that time, and 'Jeremys' call to Chelmsford police station at '3.36am', had both been (arguably) 'destroyed' or 'disposed of' because they were over '28 days' old. Bews and Saxby did 'not arrive' at the scene until '3.58am', they 'weren't there' at '3.48am', but 'PC Myall' was 'already there', he was there in time to see 'the scruffy looking hunched man walking away from the farmhouse' at '3.45am', not at 'about' 3.45am, and certainly not 'about an hour before the firearm officers arrived at the scene' (5am) in keeping with 'Kim Sengupta's News article' on the matter! The reason why 'Bonnetts' 3.26am phone log records the time that CA07 was deployed to the incident and arrived there, is recorded as having taken place 10 minutes sooner than they had been, was because at the time Bonnet wrote out the handwritten version of his 3.26am log, 'Jeremy' had already been interviewed in early September about the sequence with which 'he had called the police and his girlfriend' Julie Mugford! He told the 'interviewing officers' that he had called Julie first then the police! They took Jeremy to task on that asssertion 'reminding him' that on the morning of the incident he had told officers at the scene that 'he had tried phoning Witham police station' but had got no reply, and then 'he had phoned Julie'! Jeremy 'appeared confused' when challenged about this, and 'eventually conceded' that 'what he had originally told the officers at the scene' that he had tried to phone Witham police station before he had phoned Julie, and not the other way round, 'must be the true sequence' of events! But, 'Jeremy' had tried to contact Witham police 'before he phoned his girlfriend' but got no answer, and he had phoned Chelmsford police 'after he had spoken' to Julie! What the police knew and have known all along, is that 'Neville Bambers' distress call was made at 3.26am, and that 'Jeremys' call to Chelmsford occurred at 3.36am, 10 minutes later! Somebody in authority who was possibly 'trying to keep the lid on' the true nature of the 'incident' at the farmhouse (the murders of Neville, June and their two grandchildren on the one hand, and the 'circumstances of the death of Sheila', who perhaps may have originally been 'earmarked as the patsy' to take the blame for the other deaths, if we lean toward Giovanni De Stefano's explanation for what might have occured involving a spy ring conspiracy) realised that by presenting the time of 'Jeremys' 3.36am call to Chelmsford, as having occurred 10 minutes sooner, it would 'serve to mask the fact that Neville Bamber had made his distress call' at around the time that 'Jeremy' had attempted to contact Witham police station himself unsuccessfully! Hence why during the trial 'an attempt was made' to try and get 'PC West' to agree that he could have 'made a mistake' when looking at the control room clock by as much as 10 minutes. In the end though PC West 'wasn't prepared to accept' that he had made such a glaring error! The 'fact is', he didn't...

The contents of both logs (Bonnetts 3.26am log, and Wests 3.36am log) were 'never disclosed together', alongside one another during the trial, or the 'subsequent' failed appeal and the 'contradictory nature' of both were 'never considered' or 'debated, and no court 'judgement' given which dispensed the issues arising therein, because the prosecution made Jeremys call (PC Wests 3.36am log) the subject of 'a mistaken time' having been recorded by PC West. There was 'nothing presented' to suggest or imply that the 'contents of each log' supported the fact that Neville and Jeremy had contacted the police about the same matter, albeit 'couched in terminology' representative of 'Neville telling police himself' what was happening, and 'Jeremy telling police what Neville had told him' was happening!

Why would a "telex message" say "by 3:29" instead of just giving the time? As you haven't posted the evidence, you presumably don't know for certain that it exists or ever existed.

If there was an attack alarm, would it not be to thwart outside attackers ? Bamber being the only person who has publically said he knew how to get into & out of a locked WHF.

A panic alarm was certainly not for Sheila, who had been invited to WHF.

Anyway there is no evidence of an alarm going off. The first phone call that definately happened was Bamber to Chelmsford police/Julie.

There was no panic alarm...................could be that's why there's no evidence of one.
