I never cease to be amazed by Mike Tesko's ability to make something out of completely nothing.
Take for example his latest craze; that of the fragmented bullet; and I quote;
The circumstances of how Sheila came to be wounded by infliction of the first shot (Bullet PV/20), what happened to that bullet once it entered into her neck, and which was X-rayed with the fragments of bullet still insitu inside her throat, and its recovery during autopsy, and how it later came to be transformed into a whole bullet so that the prosecutions case could turn this into a one gun crime, needs to be looked into more deeply. Only when these events are scrutinised fully will it be possible to say with a degree of certainty that somebody substituted the original fragmented bullet (PV/20) and replaced it with a whole control bullet which was fired from rifle "Y", during unreported test firings of rifle and control ammunition, so as to present a false case to the jury that the same rifle (Y) had fired both bullets that wounded and killed Sheila Caffell, when in fact two different ones had been used...
The forensic pathlogist Peter Vanezis clearly has stated that the bullet was fragmented and has x-ray evidence. Another pathologist Malcolm Fletcher has clearly made a mistake and labelled it a 'whole bullet' Looking at the plethora of forms that each pathologist has to fill in it is hardly a surprising mistake.
However, to Mike, this is a whole different world. It means a conspiracy, it means pathologists, the police, the relatives are lying. This inconsistency is positive proof to him of a huge conspiracy involving the Essex Police, the relatives, the CCRC and just about anyone else that dares to think that a greedy, narcissistic psychopath could possibly have committed murder.
Hmm......maybe we have got it all wrong. Maybe because this man has written a wrong word............all the evidence that supports Bamber's guilt is competely wrong. The relatives have committed gross purgery, the police and forensic sciences have constructed a conspiracy so complex that JFK conspiracy theorists would be put to shame. Everything prosecution witnesses have said are nothing more than complete lies...............Of course! we have all seen the light now Mike........... We must be all so darn stupid 8-)(--)

I can see that we are interpreting this issue in a similar way albeit independently Ian.
I haven't gone into the subject of the first bullet which impacted Sheila in great depth but two facts seem to be beyond dispute.
Firstly, the pathologist, Dr Vanezis, did the autopsy and he alone is the expert in this case irrespective of later observations of data by other experts. Dr Vanezis was therefore master of the facts. He found that the bullet was fragmented but that there was a discernible remnant big enough to be called a bullet which lodged by Sheila's 4th vertebra shattering the adjacent structures (see pathologists report of 30 September 1985).
Secondly, we have the X-ray image of Sheila's neck showing the remnant bullet and the shattered particles. It is no secret that for this bullet to shatter it had to have impacted on bone causing substantial damage to that structure. The only bone in the neck is the vertebra or spinal column otherwise or commonly known as the spine or back bone.
We are therefore left in no doubt that a bullet existed which could be examined so the introduction of a false control bullet was not necessary. Does Mike Tesko think that he is smarter than Bambers lawyers who had access to all this information from day one? If he does he is sadly deluded!
