Jeremy Bamber and Heroin

[Nicholas]

Do we know for sure that he has?

Brett Collins stated of Bamber,

”When he got out of it he changed, he could be quite nasty”

Reads like he’s referring to Bamber and drugs

[Nicholas]

"He'd freshen up after work and go to Stringfellows and the Hippodrome, doing coke all night. They all knew him, when he got to the door they'd all say, 'ah Jeremy, come right in'."

‘many cocaine users are prone to violence

Was Bamber’s drug use & subsequent ‘aggression’ explored during his trial?

Was this before or after he murdered?

[Nicholas]

I’ve not heard he has.

The Heroin he tried to purchase for $5000 was for him to sell. No-one buys that amount for personal use.

I’m glad he got ripped off, he deserved it.

Does anyone know if the Criminal Cases Review Commission made contact with or interviewed Brett Collins?

I don't see the drug issue as being a potential cause for the murders. Jeremy was engaging in long term planning to kill everyone so he would gain the entire wealth of his family. His timetable featured when His entire family was staying under 1 roof.  He needed them under 1 roof because 2 or more homicide events would be more suspicious plus his selected plan was to pretend Sheila killed everyone else then herself. When and where was set around this.

From a legal standpoint the only reason to allow Julie to even tell a jury about the other crimes was so that they could see her complete relationship with Jeremy.  The fact he involved her in selling his drugs for him and took her along to burglarize the caravan site demonstrates he trusted her and makes it more likely he would also be willing to tell her about other crimes. It goes to her relationship with him.

How many years did Bamber take illegal drugs ?

And has he ever completed a prison drug course?

”Jeremy was upset by the media reports that Sheila had used drugs, and nowhere in any of his statements does he mention that Sheila had taken cocaine”

“He relied upon Julie Mugford and his friend Brett Collins while his relationship with the extended family had broken down after he was badgered for valuables from White House Farm. However, Mugford and Collins disliked each other, which added inevitable pressure to Jeremy who was already in disarray with so many pressures to carry at such a stressful time. To avoid constant media pressure the trio headed to Amsterdam where all three stayed in a single hotel room because funds were so tight. Jeremy was unhappy in his involvment with Julie and had planned to start a new relationship with another woman.

Scott Lomax on Bamber,

“It is true he grew and sold small amounts of cannabis, which he had grown in the back garden of his cottage and occasionally on his windowsills.

Wonder what Bamber’s ‘friends’ know about him & his drug habits ?

He’s never had any friends...

Didn’t Bamber tell Scott Lomax SC took cocaine ?

“Sheila was also known to take cocaine although traces of this drug were not detected”

Would he have tried it before purchasing it ?

I wouldn’t have thought so, even he must have known people can get addicted on their very first fix

He just wanted the money

Julie’s flatmates and her boyfriend — who Jeremy sometime hung round with as he had no friends of his own — they said Jeremy used to sell the marijuana not just for the money, but to try and look cool and gain friends.

What a f***** up freak he was/is

Well whoever wrote the above appears to be claiming Bamber only had JM & BC

Interesting point, Nicholas!

He loved mixing Valium with alcohol: he told a Julie he loved the feeling it gave him

He took Cocaine too — which was expensive back then...no idea how he afforded it

He sampled Julie’s Tramadol she brought down — that’s when he was plotting to drug his family — but despite taking a few mixed with booze they had little effect. He told Julie they were “useless”. So he’d obviously built up a tolerance to mind altering drugs...

He possibly took a few lines of cocaine when he carried the murders out

[ISpyWithMyEye]

Was this before or after he murdered?

Both, I believe

He seemed to party, go clubbing, and flashy restaurants even more after he murdered them.

Next day, in fact....off to the pub for Champers & good nosh up...as one does when they’re grief stricken

Does anyone know if the Criminal Cases Review Commission made contact with or interviewed Brett Collins?

I don’t know

Highly unlikely.

The CCRC don’t take this latest cr*p seriously...they’ve heard it all before zzzzz
