To think Jeremy Bamber might be innocent

Or that at the very least his conviction wasn’t safe and there needs to be a retrial? Ihe was convicted in 1985 of murdering his adoptive parents, sister and her twin sons at his parents’ farmhouse. It was at first deemed to be murder-suicide by the sister, Sheila Caffell, who was a diagnosed schizophrenic. Bamber had been on full life tarriff ever since and still protesting his innocence. I always assumed he was guilty until I listened to a podcast called Blood Family. There was a lot of evidence the jury didn’t hear, it seems the police mucked up the crime scene, his cousins had a financial motive for framing him and a police officer in the control room apparently took a 999 nonspeaking call from the farmhouse while Bamber was outside with the police, which would indicate someone was still alive at that point.

And another thing I’d be interested to know … I believe the farm secretary said she felt the finding of the silencer was possibly staged for her benefit. Also present that day it seems from Colin cafell’s book was Basil Cock who was the executor of Neville’s estate. Colin says Basil was distracted by all the fingerprint dust everywhere. But Essex Police said they hadn’t fingerprinted the house by this date?? I wonder if the farm secretary was ever asked whether she saw the dust too on that date
