Good Heavens!
I go away for one afternoon, one evening, one night, one morning!! And, four or five pages of posts to wade through!
OK, I have not yet "waded" in detail, but I can answer a couple of points:
Neither Nine nor I have any connection whatsoever with Drew Ashman and Amy-----but I'm sure Kayden and Paul know that really: they are winding us up! Whether or not they have any connection with Drew Ashman and Amy, I haven't a clue, but I doubt it somehow.
Sally Ramage is a qualified lawyer (who, I believe, currently edits a legal journal rather than practises as a lawyer). She was in court for Vincent Tabak's trial. In fact, if you read her account of it, it's obvious that she was there, but I have been told that independently.
I believe Vincent Tabak was offered the services of an interpreter, but said he didn't need one. Of course, this does not necessarily mean that he didn't need one: he might have underestimated how complicated legal jargon is!
The fact that Tanja's father did not step in and provide assistance to Vincent does not necessarily mean that he believes him to be guilty (although it might: I couldn't possibly know!). I asked my husband (a retired lawyer) if he would have done so if our daughter's boyfriend (whom we know and like very much) was charged with murder. He said that he would not get involved, because it would be our daughter's business, not his. (The hubby's a nice bloke, by the way)!
With due respect to Paul, I cannot, for the life of me, see how VT could have cleaned up all the forensic evidence in both flats between committing a murder, dumping the body, and collecting his girlfriend.
