Should Jeremy Bamber be allowed to cause distress to relatives of the deceased?

[John]

Here is an interesting question which has come up on another thread.  We could extend this question to people like Trudy Benjamin too whose presence at June and Nevill's graveside making a video can only be seen as being in very bad taste.

If your aunt, uncle or sister were murdered in such a manner, would you want these gouls at their graveside?

No. It's as disrespectful as it is macabre, but it's probably legal, alas.

I wouldn't. I'm not certain, though, that there's an answer. A friend has a corner of her garden as a "Memorial Garden" to her late husband. Such might be a possibility for the family if they were concerned. One can only pray that such a despicable act was a one off.

They don't view it that way which is worrying.

No, but there's nothing you could do to stop them descending.  It's like those people who booked holidays to PdL specifically because of their fascination with Madeleine McCann and who went to ogle all the "sights" like the apartment she disappeared from.

The problem is, as the General said, it's not illegal. The only way to stop it would be to have them re-interred at WHF, but there could be a problem with that. It MAY require Jeremy's permission

It's not a matter of legality, it's more about morality. I don't think they should be stopped, they should have enough moral fibre to know that the act was not only disrespectful, but morally bankrupt.

I doubt very much if JB has any say in where his murdered adoptive parents lie. I think Ann and David are their representatives now.

Then I guess we must rely upon their better nature. Mmmm?

That's comforting to know.

[Common sense]

According to the CT, it is them and not the family that tend the graves but even if that is so, it was in very poor taste.

The answer to the topic Should Jeremy Bamber be allowed to cause distress to relatives of the deceased? is, of course not, but he will continue to try through his constant smear campaigns against Sheila, the integrity and honesty of the relatives that got the farm and Colin Caffell, who must never be allowed to grieve quietly when he has the temerity to think Bamber is guilty of murdering his sons.

What a wretched man Bamber really is.

Jeremy may do mostly as he pleases in an attempt to clear his name.

Some things in this world are beyond possible Eli.

They must take the view any publicity is good publicity!

Totally misguided and completely inappropriate imo.  The graveside reading followed hot on the heels off 'Bakeoff' which was criticised by Rosie Dixon, CEO of After Murder and Manslaughter charity:

As RD said fair enough if they want to campaign but don't do it this way.

A few years back we drove up to WHF and the various sites: seawall, JB's cottage and had Sunday lunch in JB's local pub 

They're all in my neck of the woods.
