As we know, there have been a number: the Judge Rinder programme, "The Lost Honour of Christopher Jefferies", "Murder at Christmas", to name three, but tonight, I watched "Countdown to Murder", made in March 2015, just after VT's conviction for possessing indecent images of children. The programme is one of a series. It features interviews with Mr and Mrs Yeates, Chris Jefferies, Ann Redrop, and DCI Phil Jones, as well as a journalist (can't remember his name) and Professor David Wilson.
I thought this programme contained a number of "inconsistencies."
It begins with the following:
Vincent Tabak "fantasised about having a relationship " with Joanna Yeates.
While Jo was walking home from the Bristol Ram, VT was "waiting for her, fantasising about abusing her."
"Tabak played out his fantasies with prostitutes, but when he returned from abroad, he realised he had a pretty new neighbour."
He "lusted after Joanna Yeates."
Is there any evidence for any of this??????
The commentator then goes on to say that while Jo was on her journey home, "Vincent Tabak was stroking Bernard the cat whom he had grabbed from the hallway."
I have heard theories that VT may have used the cat as an excuse to call on Jo, but honestly, there is no evidence, and the above comment is pure speculation------just as speculative as anything any of us have done on this forum!!!
According to the programme, Jo went into her bedroom, took off her boots, and put on a pair of her boyfriend's ski socks. Apparently,after murdering her, VT removed one of the socks and kept it as a trophy.
This documentary tells us that VT grabbed Jo, forced himself onto her, the fight continued in her bedroom, where he killed her.
So, where is the forensic evidence from her bedclothes?????
He is then "thought to have" gone back to his flat, grabbed a bicycle cover, dragged Jo into her lounge, put the body in the cycle cover, and then lifted it into his boot. No mention of taking her to his flat, note.
DCI Jones tells us that VT was captured on CCTV in ASDA at 10.30pm. (I thought there was no timestamp????)
There are several other aspects of this documentary that made me rather cross! I would call it propaganda !
