Bamber made a fatal mistake, court told

[John]

I've always thought there was more to the phone call than was revealed. If we run with the 'Julie told him to call police' idea for a moment it could be either:

She knew what he was up to that night, and when he called and told her things hadn't gone to plan she thought calling the police and planting the 'mad Sheila' idea would help to cover it up or:

She had never believed what he was saying and was shocked to find out that he had gone through with it and told him to call police... and what? If she was shocked would she have told him to make up the Sheila story, or would she have threatened to call them if he didn't, or something else?

The other point Weety is that she told him to, "...go back to bed".  I honestly think she thought he was ranting again.  I bet she got the shock of her life when the police called for her??

Certainly looks that way.  She was a smart girl, probably smarter than conniving Jeremy Bamber was.  She was besotted with him but reality has a way of sinking in unfortunately and she was facing a stark one once the penny dropped.

Well that's just it. If my boyfriend had called me at 3am going on about something being wrong at the farm (where he didn't live) I think I would have asked a few more questions before telling him to go back to bed. But this is all just speculation, do we have a copy of her statements re the phone call?

Yep, the statements will be up later I understand.  Maybe admin will can give priority to Julies statements and diary extracts.

It's obviously ridiculous that Neville would phone Jeremy.

There are dozens of reasons not to.

However Jeremy wanted to create the siege situation outside WHF. Which lasted several hours.
