(1) - during the trial testimony of PC Bird (Witham SOC) he was being questioned about the order he took photographs inside the main bedroom, and he basically told the court that he took photograph numbers, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, and 33. When challenged about who had taken photograph number 25, PC Bird said that he did not take that particular photograph. He told the court that DC Oakey (HQ SOC) had taken that particular photograph..
Rather astonishingly, no-one picked up on the significance of this!
According to DI Cook (Witham SOC), his team of SOCO's consisting of himself, DC Hammersley, DS Davidson, and PC Bird, took control of the farmhouse from 10 O'clock onwards, and no-one else was permitted to enter the premises until they had completed their enquiries, which consisted of taking photographs of the bodies of the victims Insitu, and the gathering of exhibits! To all intents and purposes, SOCO weren't permitted to take control of the crime scene until two and a half hours (10.00 am) after the raid team set off to enter the farmhouse at 7.30am!
Photograph 25 showed a view of Sheila Caffells body on the bedroom floor in possession of the rifle!
No-one realised the significance of what PC Bird told the court regarding the fact that DC Oakey (HQ SOC) had taken that (25) photograph...
It was a clear indication that a separate team of SOCO had had control of the scene prior to Witham SOCO taking control of the same from 10.00 am, onwards...

(2) - a rather astounding revelation presented as part of a TV Documentary 'Killing Mum and dad', Giovani De Stefano (GDS) produced a previously unseen photograph showing fresh blood pouring and leaking from Sheila Caffells neck wound, and mouth, which he suggested had been taken at 9 O'clock on the first morning! It now becomes apparent where 'GDS' got the time (9am) this particular photograph was taken! He found out that the photograph in question could not have been taken by PC Bird (Witham SOC) because he did not start taking photographs until after 10.00am that same morning! He found out that senior police officers had conducted 'familiars' during an hour long period between 9 and 10am, and that HQ SOC accompanied this process (hence why as PC Bird stated whilst testifying, that DC Oakey had taken photograph 25), the HQ SOC team who worked around and alongside senior officers, were none other than DC Oakey and DC Henderson...
GDS was specific, he stated during the aforementioned TV Documentary, that the photograph in question, which showed fresh blood pouring and leaking from a wound and the corners of Sheila's mouth had been taken at 9am based upon the fact that HQ SOC accompanied senior officers during the key period when senior officers conducted 'familiars' prior to the various crime scenes inside the farmhouse being handed over to the Witham SOC at 10.00am...
DC Oakey and or DC Henderson took the key photograph showing fresh blood pouring and leaking from a neck wound and the mouth of Sheila, about an hour before PC Bird could have possibly been in a position to take such a photograph! It becomes apparent that during the period of time which elapsed between the taking of that photograph, by HQ SOC and the first occasion which PC Bird could have taken any photographs at all of Sheila, that the fresh looking consistency of the blood in the former, had ample time to have dried by the time PC Bird carried out his duty!
-
The only other alternative was that If PC Bird had taken the above photograph, then he could only have taken it after 10.00am, which would then have required that the inflicting of the neck wound would have have to occurred, at least six hours previously if Jeremy Bamber, was indeed his sister's killer - Jeremy Bamber arrived at the scene and was met by the occupants of CA07 at 3.52am...
At some stage during that six hour period, someone had placed two fingers against the under the chin shot in an attempt to stem the flow of blood! Thereafter, the fingers had been removed and fresh blood had flowed and leaked over the top of the aforementioned finger marks!
-
(3) - within one hour of DC Clark and DS Jones having entered the farmhouse and witnessed the position of the bodies of all five victims in situ, they told Ann Eaton, after they arrived at Jeremy's cottage, the following facts - (a) that Neville Bambers body was downstairs in the kitchen, (b) that upstairs in the main bedroom and laying side by side on top of the bed, were the bodies of June Bamber, and Sheila Caffell, in-between both bodies and resting on the bed was a rifle, and that on top of Sheila's chest was a bible, (c) that the two child victims, Daniel and Nicholas Caffell, were in their respective beds in another bedroom...

Ann Eaton, and the other relatives, including Jeremy, therefore were under an impression that the bodies of Sheila had been found laid alongside eachother on top of the bed in the main bedroom, not on the bedroom floor either side of the bed, and with the rifle on top of Sheila's chest, and a bible by her upper and outer right arm!
-
How had DC Clark and DS Jones managed to get the positioning of June and Sheila's bodies so wrong, when they had visited the main bedroom prior to leaving the scene with Jeremy Bamber to go to his cottage?
The stark truth in the matter was that nobody expected Clark and Jones to disclose any information to the family, or to the press, anything about where the bodies had been found, or how they had individually, or collectively met their end! Senior officers disturbed the bodies of June and Sheila, only after Clark and Jones had already left the scene, and they were unaware that Clark and Jones would reveal information to the relatives which later on might prove to be significantly problematic! Likewise, back at Jeremy's cottage, Clark, Jones, and the relatives, never imagined that senior officers back at the scene, would disturb the position of June and Sheila's bodies on top of the bed, or the position of the rifle that had been in the bed between them, or the position of the bible from Sheila's chest, onto different parts of the bedroom floor, either side of the bed...
The existence of these conflicting accounts between the police at the scene, and the relatives back at Jeremy's cottage, concerning the whereabouts of June and Sheila's bodies when found or positioned at different stages after the raid team first entered the farmhouse, including the visit to the main bedroom scene by Clark and Jones, at which stage June and Sheila's bodies were laid either side of eachother on top of the bed, and afterwards when senior officers authorised the movement of both of these bodies from the bed to the floor, became a Significant bargaining tool to the relatives who were all intent on presenting Jeremy as the killer! It became a case of, 'you will co-operate with our wishes, otherwise we will expose the fact that police tampered with the crime scene and the police (not Jeremy) staged Sheila's body on the bedroom floor in possession of the riffle, designed to support the case for the shootings to be treated as four murders and a suicide, when Sheila's body had previously been on the bed'!

It was the relatives themselves who leaked information to the press that June and Sheila's bodies had been found on top of the bed, with the gun in-between both bodies, and a bible on Sheila's chest! They told the press, what DC Clark and DS Jones had told them at Jeremy's cottage within an hour of both officers having seen the bodies on the bed less than an hour previously!
-
That's what I remember reading first Mike. Certain things you can recollect and that was one of them.
-
To the minds of relatives, they found out afterwards, that the police had moved the bodies of June and Sheila from the bed, to the floor either side of the bed, and realised that there was something seriously wrong with what the police were telling them, and what police are saying they had found, and by what stage! They also found out that cops had moved the rifle from its position on the bed at the time Clark and Jones had seen it, onto and into Sheila Caffells possession so that it might look like or appear as though she could have or might have taken her own life there! It must have confused the relatives and nurtured disturbing thoughts in their minds along the lines that 'something extremely sinister' had been going on surrounding all the deaths, but in particular, 'why had police disturbed Sheila's body on the bed' and 'moved it to the bedroom floor'? Moreover, why place the rifle in her possession and present the staged scene as evidence that she must have committed suicide?

Taking this issue a step further, DC Clark and DS Jones told Ann Eaton and the other relatives, that all the victims had died as a result of a single gunshot each!

It wasn't until days later when a close friend of the relatives (PC Robert Carr) told the relatives the shocking truth, that Neville Bamber had been shot 7/8 times, June had been shot 7 times, that Daniel Caffell had been shot 5 times, that his twin Nicholas had been shot 3 times and that Sheila had been shot twice! It was as a result of being told all of this that the relatives started to get a bee in their Bonnetts! The matter not helped by the fact, that Julie Mugford had gone along with the police version of events after attending Chelmsford hospital mortuary to identify the five victims and lying to them about how many times each victim had been shot! In particular, upon returning to the cottage after performing the aforementioned duties, Julie told everyone present at Jeremy's cottage in Head Street, Goldhanger, that Sheila had only been shot just the once, and indicating with her index finger a point directly beneath her own chin!!!
This must have been a very disturbing and confusing period for the relatives, who originally had no suspicion that Jeremy could be involved, until they had to deal with the lies police had been telling them, and the lies Julie Mugford had told them!
From that point onward, relatives began to think that Jeremy might after all, have had something to do with it!
-

Yes, Lookout, there exists a police action somewhere in my possession, which mentions that somebody is responsible for leaking sensitive information from the investigation to the press! I will sooner or later lay my hands upon it again and post it in the relevant section of this forum!
-
(4) - There exists no official acknowledgement that any of the relatives had contact with, or influenced Julie Mugfords decision to speak to the police! None of the relatives appear to officially have had to say a bad word about the role Julie must have played in the killings (if her account be a true one)!
The timing of Julie Mugfords decision to speak to police coincided with Robert Woodside Boutflour's decision to go and visit the Assistant Chief Constable, 'Peter' Simpson, insisting that there should be a fresh investigation with Jeremy as the suspect...

There must have been some form of collusion between Julie Mugford, the relatives, and Essex police, for these two events to have occurred, at around the same time, some five weeks or so after the tragedy! I simply don't believe that Robert Boutflour and Julie Mugford contacted the police at the same time of the investigation, one asking that Jeremy be treated as the suspect, and the other implying that Jeremy is a suspect!
Too coincidental for my liking, there must have been some form of collusion involving the interested parties..
-
(5) - In Julie Mugfords account, she never once mentions any reference to a sound moderator being used in the shootings!
-
(6) - Why did Robert Boutflour go and see Simpson on the 6th September 1985 and request a fresh investigation, with Jeremy as the suspect, if police were already treating Jeremy as a suspect, and already supposedly already had the silencer in their possession at the Lab' (Supposedly sent to the lab' on 30th August 1985, as exhibit DB/1 Lab' item No.23)?
This is a remarkable piece of evidence, since Ann Eaton and the relatives still had possession of the silencer, right up until the 11th September 1985 (5 days after Robert Boutflours appointment with Simpson) which she gave to DC Oakey on that date?

How could the same silencer (sound Moderator) have already been at the lab' from 30th August 1985, onwards, and yet still be in the possession of Ann Eaton and the relatives until the 11th September 1985, which she handed to DC Oakey on the 11th Seoptember 1985, which in turn was supposedly retained by Essex police so that DS Eastwood and DS Davidson could fingerprint it on the 14th September 1985, and it being subsequently submitted to the lab' on the 20th September 1985, with a request that it be checked for blood and fibres?
Essex police are sending a silencer to the lab' on the 20th September 1985 to be checked for blood and fibres, when the silencer was already there at the lab' and had already been checked for blood on and after the 30th August 1985?
Something very sinister been going on here, involving the police, the lab' and the relatives...
-
(7) - the rifle fitted to the barrel of the anshuzt rifle was too long to permit Sheila to have shot herself, and remove the silencer after she had killed herself and take it downstairs to conceal it in the gun cupboard -who could have been responsible for her shooting, (a) Jeremy Bamber, or (b) Sheila Caffell, he said there was no evidence that any third party had been involved!
Well, that might not have been true!

Well, that might not have been true!
Firstly, in experiments conducted at Birddwell Armoury 2003 / 2004, it was proven that Sheila could have shot herself with the silencer fitted to the end of the guns barrel, it wasn't necessarily too long as was claimed by the prosecution during the 1986 trial..
Secondly, there now exists clear evidence that there was and must have been a third party involvement in Sheila Caffells death contained in previously 'undisclosed materialistic evidence' which demonstrates in the clearest terms imaginable that the police disturbed Sheila Caffells body and staged her death scene, a death scene which in the light of the juries 10/2 verdict was attributed solely to Jeremy Bamber which in the cold light of day and with the benefit of hindsight must be treated as a glaring inconsistency of the prosecutions case! Bamber has been held accountable for doing that which the police themselves had done at a time when he was on his way to his cottage with two police officers (Clark and Jones), who in turn confirmed to Ann Eaton and the other relatives and Jeremy that they had witnessed June and Sheila Caffells body on top of the bed, not on the bedroom floor...

Sheila Caffells body ended up on the bedroom floor in possesssion of the rifle because police put her body there after lifting it from on top of the bed!
Then later on the court which convicted Jeremy for these murders, relied upon photographs taken later by PC Bird (Witham SOC) showing Sheila's body there, in possession of that rifle, as evidence that Jeremy had staged his sisters body there in that undistrubed location and position! Now, how can that be right in light of what is now known?

There must have clearly been a third party involvement in Sheila caffells death, an involvement which occurred after the armed raid party entered the farmhouse, not necessaruily beforehand (although this possibility cannot be entirely disregarded)...
There was a third party involvement in the death, of at least Sheila Caffell, how on earth can anyone say there wasn't and there isn't?
Lets look and delve into what we now know about the position and location of Sheila's body and the rifle at various key stages of the ongoing police investigation / operation at the scene on that first morning - Her body was present downstairs in the kitchen (7.35am, 7.37am, 7.38am, 7.42am, 7.45am, and 8.10am) this is confirmed by reference to police logs which were made up spontaneously as and when the events were unfolding, and therefore are contemporaneous accounts of what did take place. Next, and by 8.44am, Sheila's body was on the far side of the bed, according to a police surgeon, Dr Craig. For those of you amongst us who interpret what Dr Craig says about the position of Sheila's body being on the floor on the far side of the bed, please try not to ignore what DC Clark and DS Jones saw when they visited the main bedroom scene and viewed the bodies shortly after 9.05am, since the bodies of June and Sheila by that stage were laid alongside one another on top of the bed, the rifle was resting on the bed inbetweeen both bodies and there was a bible on Sheila's chest. Then we have the crime scene photographs taken by the second team of SOCO (from Witham) which shows Sheila's body on the bedroom floor..
I would like to make the following suggestions in pursuit of clarity and truth...
Why would police say there were two bodies downstairs in the kitchen if there was only one body there? Why only three other bodies found upstairs by 8.10am? Secondly, if at 8.44am, Sheila's body had been on the floor on the far side of the bed, then how come her body is on top of the bed by around 9.05am in time for DC Clark and DS Jones to see it there alongside the body of June Bamber, and why by 10am Sheila's body has been moved back onto the bedroom floor in possesssion of the rifle in time for PC Bird (Witham SOC) to photograph the scene showing the last resting place in the grand scheme of things?
Such events as have been recorded could not be put down as errors or mistakes, her body has clearly been moved around from pillar to post and the only people which could be responsible for having done that or witnessed this, are the police themselves, Jeremy Bamber nor anybody else could have had any input to these goings on...
I believe that some of these actions / activities involving the police in the stage managing of Sheila Caffells death scene on the bedroom floor constitutes 'the involvement of a third party' in her death!
What else could it be described as?
In my opinion, the jury were deceived into having to choose culpability between only Sheila and Jeremy, because the police played a significant role in not only the death of Sheila caffell, but in the staging of her death scene, on the bedroom floor, where she was only shot once (the other shot having been sustained downstairs earlier in the kitchen) - the judge misled the jury, therefore, and took away from them an opportunity to find that there had been a third party involvement in the killings (particularly with respect to Sheila's demise)! Had the Judge not taken away that option from the jury and the jury had found that there had been an unknown third party involvement in the matters, Jeremy Bamber would have been entitled to walk free because the prosecutions case was not that he had hired any third party mercenary to carry out the murders on his behalf, their case was that he had enetered the farmhouse and that he had shot and killed everyone includding his sister, and that he had staged the scene thereafter to make it appear as though his sister had taken her own life after she had killed the others...
Involvement of a third party in these deaths, be it all five deaths, or only in Sheila's case, in my view this caused Jeremy Bamber to be the victim of an unfair trial! He was on a hiding to nothing! For all we know, there could be some truth in Neville Bamber and his family being 'a target', the fifth target according to GDS, connected with 'espionage activities' betweeen 1953 and 1973 in the middle east. Since, it does seem odd that all members of that spy ring and their families have died in mysterious circumstances, comparable to the events surounding the whf killings! It might have been Sheila herself all along, and the police, so that overall it was a chaotic event or series of events...
But JJeremy Bamber could not have shot and killed his sister or staged her death scene in various locations around the farmhouse after the armed raid team enetered the farmhouse at 7.30am...

EP tried to right a wrong and made a muck of it,thus ensuring that they'd done their job by securing a conviction in the process. Their investigations taking them no further than those who were to benefit.

Lookout, I strongly believe that there might be an element of truth in GDS's espionage theory, It would be interesting to try and find out more about these other four cases!
I believe that the relatives applied pressure on Essex police threatening to expose them for the role they have played in lying to them about where the bodies of June and Sheila were found, and how many times the victims had been shot. It must have been a form of blackmail that Essex police felt obliged to go along with, at peril of facing prosecution, loss of livelihood and loss of pensions!
-
(8) - the relatives handing over the same silencer twice to police, once by PPeter Eaton to DS Jones (Witham) on 12th August 1985, and secondly by Ann Eaton, on the 11th September 1985, to DC Oakey (HQ SOC)..

If there was only the one silencer, then how did the relatives get the silencer back from Essex police, after 12th August 1985, in order for Ann Eaton and the relatives to still be in possesssion of it until the 11th September 1985?

EP would have been sweating that's for sure. Why did that cop break down giving evidence ?

Some police records show that Ann Eaton handed over several exhibits to DC Oakey on the 11th September 1985, bearing exhibit references, DRB/2, DRB/3 and DRB/4, which were subsequently changed into CAE/2, CAE/3 and CAE/4, then AE/2, AE/3 and AE/4, until finally, they became DC Oakeys exhibits bearing different exhibit references altogether!
The purpose of police doing this was to try and conceal for the fact that Ann Eaton had also handed over to DC Oakey on the 11th September 1985, the key sound moderator that police kept until the 20th September 1985 before sending it to the lab' on the 20th September 1985 to be checked for blood and fibers...

In a nutshell, Essex police, the lab' and the relatives merge the two silencers so that in evidence they same one! The purpose of giving exhibits which Ann Eaton handed to DC Oakey (HQ SOC) on 11th September 1985 all those different exhibit references was to try and prevent anyone from finding out that the relatives still had possesssion of one of the silencers a month after the shootings so that no-one could accuise them of ddeliberately contaminating the silencer, with blood and paint or both...
