Jeremy Bamber - Is this the worst MoJ in British criminal history?

[HoGo1]

I watched a prog on C5 a few weeks ago re the above. I've also spent a fair bit of time researching the case (there's a mountain of docs on the 'Jeremy Bamber Forum') I have a feeling we will be hearing much more about this in the not too distant future Does anyone else think he might be innocent?

I remember this happening and have followed this case for years but I can't come down on either side.

I do think there are discrepancies which haven't been fully addressed and it does worry me that the police culture at the time was all about getting the result and not being too fussy about evidence.

I also think it's a case that's unlikely to just go away.

The sad thing is even if it is ever deemed a MoJ and he's freed then not only has he spent nearly all his adult life in prison but many people are always going to think he's done it.

I've always thought him guilty. Ditto Sion Jenkins who got off on appeal

I don't believe the public know a fraction of what there is to know about the case. For those who think he is guilty you should read the psychiatrist's reports about the adoptive mother and adopted daughter and that might cause you to at least ponder...

Anyone interested check out:

Then go to 'Archive Library'

Then 'Statements and Transcripts'

Then 'Dr Hugh Cameron Ferguson'

...

I read interesting article by ex detective who thought he was innocent and then did complete u turn after discovering the telephone system in the house had been arranged in away that meant Bamber did it.

Wish I could remember more!

No.

Derek Bentley and others...

I can assure you no new evidence is contained in the article by Bob Woffinden.

I followed the Sion Jenkins case too and I could never make up my mind - it fascinated me that there were two hung juries on his appeal, because I could see the arguments on both sides. He never seemed like a very nice person (he faked his CV, as I recall) but that doesn't mean he was guilty of murder.

I've never really doubted Bamber's guilt though.

My stepdaughter lived six houses down from the Jenkins house and I visited her a year after and had to walk past the house. I gave an involuntary shudder as I went past. As an aside I'm not related to SJ.

Have to say, I don't understand the whole silencer thing.. If it was found days after the murder then presumably it wasn't on the gun so that would mean Sheila could have shot herself (oe the gun wasn't too long)?

Is it because Jeremy Bamber was a good looking man that people still believe he might be innocent?

Yeah, yeah. I know. But is it?

WAS being the operative word!

I don't think many people would not be moved by such a shocking MoJ regardless of looks. In a democratic country we need to know that the justice system works.

One of my earlier posts explains the background re the silencer. As I said if anyone is interested check out www.jeremybamberforum.co.uk. You need to sign in to read the documents. This is likely to be a massive news story in the near future so I'm sure you will all be hearing a lot more

There was bllod of Sheila's blood type inside the silencer.

Years after Bamber was found guilty this was retested using more modern techniques (not as up to date now) and it matched 17 points out of 20 against Sheila's blood so they say it's pretty certain its her blood.

She couldn't have shot herself, took the silencer off the gun and put it away, walked into another room and died.

OP Why do you keep going on and on about it being news in the future??

No.

It's not really surprising that some people think he's innocent though. I think it must be a similar psychology/mindset to those sorts of people who fall in love with serial killers.

I think she,s referring to a conspiracy theory on that forum,have a read of this thread

Yes flippinada you get my point! thank you. Women pursued Peter Sutcliffe in Broadmoor. There is an appeal - for some people, for some women - in these men who are convicted killers.

And you dont need to log in or register to read the posts.

Not sure about the Jeremy Bamber one.

Very concerned about the possible links between Megan and Lin Russell and Levi Bellfield though.

Thanks viva, thatbexplainsit. So unless someone planted the blood or she was somehow wounded in the fight with her dad there's no other way her blood could have got there.
