I do not believe it suggests that Jeremy's call to Chelmsford police was made any sooner than 3.36am, and I shall tell you for why. During the trial, both phone log contents were not disclosed, there was just a suggestion that Jeremy's call had been made 10 minutes sooner. The reason for this was because unless police addressed it, the fact that within moments of Ralph making his call to Jeremy, Ralph himself was making his call to the police (3.26am), and this would have confirmed why Jeremy got the engaged tone whilst trying to ring his father back at the scene, shortly after 3.26am. Police suggested Jeremy's call had been made 10 minutes earlier than 3.36am, so as to prevent a reliance upon his father making that (3.26am) earlier call to police, being relied upon to support Jeremy's account that once the brief call to Jeremy had ended, that Jeremy had indeed got a constant engaged tone,whilst trying to reestablish contact with his father. The actual contents of Ralph's 3.26am police log were not disclosed, nor were any of its content addressed or commented upon during trial. All that was mentioned, was the timing of Jeremy's call, that it had been made 10 minutes earlier at 3.26am. If the contradictory nature of both logs had been disclosed, all hell would almost certainly have broke loose...
Why do you keep distorting? Both logs were discussed at trial. The defense expressly cross examined West by stressing the differences and getting West to say he likely made a mistake when he recorded the time.
Bonnett's log was a trial exhibit. West's log was used to refresh his memory and read into the record. The trial exhibit stated West's call to Bonnett was at 3:26 and the police dispatched 3:35 which means Jeremy had to call West prior to 3:26.
If Jeremy called West at 3:36 police would not have been contacted around 3:30 which is when they say they were contacted and would not have left at 3:35 which is when they claim they left Witham. Furthermore Jeremy would have gotten there far later than he did because including his time on hold his call lasted around ten minutes. You claim after he spoke to police he then called Julie which would have taken up more of his time so he could not have left until after the time he arrived. In the meantime Julie and her roommates say his call was before 3:30 and most likely around 3AM.
What you are saying doesn't objectively fit you are intentionally trying to fit a square peg through a round hole because of bias.
That same bias makes you ignore that had Nevill actually phoned then police would have been told they were going there because of his call. Jeremy would have been told of his call and would not have been asked for all the information he was asked for.
Scenario:
Mike phones his mom telling her about trouble.
Mike phones the police telling them about the same trouble.
Mike's Mom phones police to report that Mike told her about trouble and police were needed.
In this situation police would tell Mike's Mom that Mike already called so they already have the address and information and are taking care of it. They would not pretend this is the first time they are hearing it, take down all the information again and even put her on hold to dispatch police yet again.
Police were told they were going because of Jeremy's call. Police were told contact was never made with anyone in the house ever and the only reported contact was Nevill to Jeremy. Police were told this at every stage- the initial police sent were told they were going because of Jeremy and no contact with the house could be made, the firearms officers were all told such including the second batch who received a briefing stating such and the detectives were all told such after they showed up.
There were 2 logs because 1 logged Jeremy's call to West and the other logged West's call to Bonnett. There is no mystery at all.
