More disappointment looming for Bamber?

[puglove]

There were three calls. The first at around 10pm on Tuesday when soon after returning home from the farm, Bamber forwarned Julie that "Tonight's the night" (or similar wording); the second sometime after 3am when Bamber said that there was trouble at the farm, so Julie told him to go back to bed because everything would be alright in the morning; the third after 6am from a call box in Tolleshunt D'Arcy when Bamber told her not to go to work because a police car would pick her up and bring her to his Goldhanger cottage. This last call is the one I think CAL was referring to, when after spending a sleepless night, the penny finally dropped and Julie realised that he'd carried out his plan.

Anything on the "fantastic news by the end of January" yet, Myster? Is he through to the quarter finals of the Wakefield Tiddlywinks Tournament? Is he Sausage in The Masked Singer?

Wagwan???

If Julie ‘realised’ at that moment Bamber had carried out his plan - I think she’d have confided in one of her flat mates and wouldn’t have gone to Goldhanger

Am of the view Julie’s ‘realisation’ is not as clear cut as some observers seem to think

Bamber had already eroded Julie’s reality by the time of ‘the three calls’  https://thoughtcatalog.com/shahida-arabi/2017/11/50-shades-of-gaslighting-the-disturbing-signs-an-abuser-is-twisting-your-reality/

If Julie had interpreted Bamber’s ’tonight’s the night’ comment as meaning he planned to kill his family - why would she tell him during the next call to ‘go back to bed’?

By this stage of their relationship - as the linked article ‘50 shades of gaslighting’ suggests - I doubt Julie was able to ‘trust herself or her instincts’

Julie on Bamber

‘She said that he “sounded disjointed and worried” and he said “There’s something wrong at home.”  She had been sleepy and had not asked what it was.

‘On 7 September, Julie contacted the police and told them that she had omitted matters from her earlier statement. She then gave a very different account that she was to repeat to the jury in evidence. She said that after she met Jeremy, it quickly became obvious to her that he disliked his family. He resented his parents whom he claimed, “tried to run his life" and he said he did not get on with Sheila. He was angry that she lived in an expensive flat in Maida Vale, which was maintained by his parents. Between July and October 1984, he said that his parents were getting him down and he said that he wished “he could get rid of them all”. In evidence Julie said this included his sister and children because “if he was going to get rid of them it would have to be all of them”. Bamber explained to her that his “father was getting old, his mother was mad … Sheila was mad as well … and in respect of the way the twins had been brought up, … they were emotionally disturbed and unbalanced”. Bamber also told Julie he had seen copies of his parents’ wills.
