More like an exageration rather than a figure of speech. This was how lies became accepted as truth. I drove at 40mph and it took me 9 minutes. It is in fact further than people think from Bamber's house to WHF. So what sense does it make if he did drive slower than he nor mally did? If he wanted to make sure he arrived after the police all he had to do was leave it for 5 minutes and then start out. You must not forget, he was obeying the police, who stressed that he should wait for them to arrive at the farm. I would probably have done the same?
There is no evidenc epolice told him to wait for them they told him to meet them there. Jerey supporters make up in their mind tha tpolice would tell him to make sure to wait for them.
The reality is that someone in his poisiton who ACTUALLY recieved the call alleged would have either drive over immediatley as fast as possible and tred to help in some manner or whould have claled police and then ran over, waited for police and tried to convince police to do something.
Whether it is a fire or a report of a gunman family either ties to go in themselves to saved loved ones or plead with responders to do something.
He did neither. He lied about Sheila having an arsenal as her disposal, being proficient with all the weapons and calmly talked about cars.
His actions were totally incinsistent with those of someone who had actually received the call he claims to have received. Indeed at trial he admitted he didn't call police right away as he had originally told police he had done. He said he didn't think the situation was urgent at first and only after thinking about it a while did he do anything. So instead of rushing over or immediately calling police he did nothing senseing no urgency and only after thinking a while did he decide it was serious so better call police. Not only do his claims make no sense and have no credibility he cna't even remain consistent in his claims.
He was clearly only interested in trying to create an alibi and that alibi was that he was home when the trouble happened. If the bodies were found in the mornign with him simply saying he knew nothign and wa sin bed who could confirm he was in bed all night? No one. So he decided to make up a story that blamed Sheila and that established he was home. So he made up receiving a call and then called Julie so she could say he called her worried so she could confirm his acocunt he received a worrying call form WHF. He wanted police to pick him up so they could see he was home and when that failed he made sure he arrived after them.
Julie was not around when he puked. She learned from him that he had puked when he told her that he forced himself to puke to try to fool them into thinking he was upset because he had been too calm with them.
Your diehard defense of Jeremy no matter what even on simple issues like this is why you should just stop the farce of proclaiming you are objective and not a Jeremy supporter. Your proclamations are not credible.
