Other High Profile Cases and Persons of Interest > Twenty years on, the mystery of who shot Jill Dando still prevails.
How Credible Is The Theory Involving A Gangland Hit/Underworld Figures?
Holly Goodhead:
Like the Serb theory there appears to be two aspects to the above:
- Some underworld figure orchestrating a hit in retaliation for Jill presenting Crimewatch, working alongside and supporting British police officers and helping to bring the perps of crime to justice.
- A Spanish barman by the name of Joe who wished to ingratiate himself with Kenneth Noye. I think the thinking here is that Jill had some involvement via Crimewatch in helping bring Noye to justice over the M25 murder of Stephen Cameron.
Holly Goodhead:
Imo the above seems unlikely.
Like the Serb theory Jill was effectively the messenger not the initiator/investigator.
Others play far more important roles in bringing perps to justice: police officers, prosecuting counsel, expert witnesses and judges than say Jill presenting Crimewatch. As far as I can recall I can't think of anyone murdered from the aforementioned for their roles in bringing the perps of crime to justice?
No one claimed at the time Jill was murdered for her contribution to Crimewatch. In the absence of a claim then it seems to me obvious the BBC would simply appoint another which they did, Fiona Bruce.
The police trawled through the Crimewatch episodes presented by Jill and were unable to find any connections.
Nick Ross spoke with his US counterparts and was told it was as rare as hen's teeth.

Yes her brother Nigel seems to be of the opinion the perp was just a "misguided individual" which might well be a euphemism for BG!
