The Bambers: Murder at the farm - Sky Crime documentary

[Myster]

Being as Eric Allison is a ‘great friend’ of executioner, child killer and sexual predator Bamber’s it’s possible he’ll be appearing in the forthcoming doc - He’s also a ‘legit person’ working for Guardian news

Why would anyone believe the deluded opinions of a former lag?...

[Myster]

Who of his ‘friends’ hasn’t spoken before?

I suspect this statement is a lie

Only a week to go to find out.  Is this four-parter being shown at one go or staggered over several days/weeks?

I missed the reference to Yvonne - will have another listen later 

I’ve asked Helen Wingrave http://miscarriageofjustice.co/index.php?topic=8088.msg665659#msg665659 on Twitter about Virginia and Anji Greaves but she’s not answered me yet

Bamber's bestie has gone AWOL. Her birthday bake-off, extremely-belated graveside eulogy and other sycophantic videos deleted from YouTube, never to surface again, were always good for a laugh.

So where’s Trudi ?

Resigned because other team members weren't happy about the direction their campaign was heading maybe, or as a newly-qualified law grad. to make oodles of dosh elsewhere.

I mean in terms of the forthcoming docu series

James Whale gave her a fairly hard time in relation to her support of Bamber - she was adamant he’s a ‘victim’

Does anyone know if she was approached by Mindhouse TV or if she’s approached them?

‘On the 15th of July 2015 BBC Radio Essex featured Trudi Benjamin from the Official Campaign discussing the Bamber-Bake Off https://www.jeremy-bamber.co.uk/james-whale-debate

Trudi Benjamin is a ‘legit’ person

Louis Theroux

A lot of them are legit people

doesn’t mean ALL of them are ‘legit’

Trudi appeared ‘legit’ to me

I asked Emma why Anji Greaves ‘posed’ as Bamber’s girlfriend for the Sun newspaper back in Oct 1985 and asked her who’s idea the fake news story was - her response ⬇️

What a load of rubbish!  That doesn't give any answers, just some deluded woman ( in my opinion) who wants to get in the papers.

No, I haven't met him.  I'm disabled and struggle to get very far.  I've written to him and had some lovely replies.  I also arranged a candlelight vigil for his family, Sheila and her victims.  He was so appreciative.  He's such a lovely thoughtful man.

No idea - don’t have sky either

Claire McGourlay or Louise Hewitt could have been approached by Mindhouse TV given their work ?

‘Dr Louise Hewitt (Innocence Project London) Professor Claire McGourlay (Manchester Innocence Project) and Marcus Gatto and Dr Edward Matthews (Irish Innocence Project)will discuss how to conduct an innocence investigation and the process of investigating a claim of innocence. They will be joined by a speaker from the Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC).

She’s referring to Julie Price, Dennis Eady and Holly Greenwood

Louise’s latest blog https://www.advance-he.ac.uk/news-and-views/youve-come-long-way-baby-four-kids-phd-and-2021-ntf

Dennis Eady - 7th Feb 2017
“The Jeremy Bamber case is perhaps the mother and father of illustrations of this resistance to disclosure (see www.jeremy-bamber.co.uk). After more than 30 years, the preferred option is to leave a potentially innocent man on a full life sentence rather than simply disclose material that could potentially exonerate him.
https://www.thejusticegap.com/disclosures-catch-22/

Dennis Eady could very well be one of those people referred to by Louis Theroux as ‘legit’ and he may have chosen to take part in the forthcoming sky TV series - he still appears very much involved with Bambers CT

[Nicholas]

Who are the legit people who think Bamber is innocent?  That Mark Williams Thomas bloke just seems to take the most controversial viewpoint, without providing any actual evidence.  He does that for all his cases.  Just because you get on the telly, it doesn't make you 'legit'.

Do you think Louis Theroux might know this?

I don’t suppose in reality Louis Theroux and Mark Williams Thomas are ‘friends’ do you?

Louis Theroux

I was sort of relieved when I went and watched it again, within the space of weeks after Mark Williams-Thomas’s programme came out. And it’s not the cuddly portrait of an eccentric

But then as much as I’d like to think that I got Jimmy Savile right, I didn’t imagine him to be capable of those crimes,

And what I’ve had to get my head around is the fact that I grew to like him. I kept friendly relations with him for a few years after making the programme

I’ve had to revisit that and think about that. Who was he? How much of the person that I thought I knew was real? And you have to re-evaluate and unpick a lot of memories and think about that. I mean, I knew I never quite got his number. I knew there was an aspect of his life to do with his sexual interests that remained opaque to me

https://www.nme.com/news/tv/louis-theroux-on-jimmy-savile-i-knew-i-never-quite-866525

If anyone’s done a ‘deep dive’ into the allegations of Jimmy Savile in relation to the people who took part in Mark Williams Thomas’s doc - they’ve all since been exposed as liars and discredited

Deceit by Spirit of Savile

Rabbit Away has ‘studied the Savile case from the get-go’

Louis Theroux
“Basically it’s a highly charged subject, and it’s a deeply emotional subject, and there are people who are passionately committed on both sides. And so, I’m sure there will be [a backlash]. (Radiotimes)

There may not be a ‘backlash’

[Nicholas]

Notice how none of Bamber’s supporters want to address the Virginia and Anji Greaves fraud nor the date rape of the girl from the Chequers public house

At around 56.00 in the BBC Wales doc re ‘The Clydach murders’ Wyre Davies states,

‘Simon McKay is a barrister and a leading expert on civil liberties and human rights. He’s concerned about the use of PII which is more commonly used in cases of national security

PII is also used in rape and sexual offence cases

Bamber was adamant to Colin Caffell he didn’t rape Julie ‘I DIDN'T RAPE JULIE’ (16th August 1988) http://miscarriageofjustice.co/index.php?topic=11456.msg588414#msg588414

I don’t believe him

Especially given the girl from the Chequers PH’s disclosures - what does her witness statement say exactly & how many statements did she make and when ?

There could well be other similar allegations sitting on Bamber’s file

And the CCRC could be well aware of this too
