Can you prove those sentences are unfinished? You can't, so you're speculating. Even if they are, so what? People leave sentences unfinished for all sorts of reasons.
I don’t think it was him that I saw”.
4078 “No”.
Reply “But I just thought it was”.
Jane says she doesn't think it was him that she saw. She's referring to what she thinks at present, during the interview. Then she tells us what she thought in the past; she thought then that it was him.
If you read the following in it's entirety and not just take a few words out of context , it's obvious to me that the discussion is about Fiona, Rachel and Russells claims that Murat was there on the 3rd May. It's not about whether JT identified him or not at that stage of the interview.
JT is saying that she thought it was important to make it clear
during this interview - the details of what happened after Murat appeared on TV and the reasons why they rang Bob Small and to clarify that she had not told anyone about the ID parade - so there was no possibility that they had colluded at the time they rang him. etc etc
JT wanted to make it clear that none of them knew that RM had denied being there when they rang Bob Small.
IMO 'but I just thought it was' would probably have had the word 'important etc' after it, had she finished the sentence, which would fit in with the other bolded comments in her statement.

Reply “Erm well I think it’s when I’d done the, well I did the surveillance and then the next day after that, I think it came on Sky News about whether they were searching, what the MURAT’s house, so that’s Rachel sort of came running down at that point and sort of said, have you seen this blah, blah and at this point, nobody knew that I’d done the surveillance cos the Portuguese Police were very adamant that I shouldn’t tell anybody and I didn’t tell anybody for days actually, I didn’t even tell them then that it was actually, that I’d done it, I mean it was a couple of days afterwards. So Rachel came down and sort of said, oh I saw him blah, blah, blah and then I think Russell, I can’t remember who else but then somebody else said oh they, they saw him and etc., so at that point it was, I rang Bob SMALL cos I’d got, I’d got his number from the day before for them and you know, they sort of, you know to say, oh is this, is this relevant and also I wanted to tell him that I’d seen him on the way to the doing the surveillance as well yeah just for that, so I thin
k it’s just to make the point really that I think at that point, they didn’t know that Robert MURAT said he wasn’t there on the night”.4078 “Right”.
Reply “You know, or said yeah, had said that he wasn’t there on the night, so you know was immediately, I think it was immediately, I’m not trying to push anything onto Robert MURAT’s door, cos as I say I don’t think it was him that I saw”.
4078 “No”.

“But I just thought it was”.4078 “Because there had been some dispute as to whether they’ve actually seen him when they’ve said they’ve seen him”.
Reply “Yeah I think,
I just want to make it clear that from my own point of view, they gave that information as soon as it came onto Sky and asked and you know they were sort of like, oh let’s ring Bob SMALL to see if it’s relevant at this point and at that point, none of us knew that he wasn’t there on you know, that he didn’t say that he was there on the night and”.
4078 “Yes”.
Reply “And I, I mean I didn’t myself see him on the night at all but somebody did say to me, who translated for you, was it the lady or the man and it, it was the lady, I said, Sylvie and I hadn’t seen a man but again I don’t know whether that has any relevance that there was somebody else there translating, you know during the night so”.
4078 “Okay, that’s certainly a point worth bringing up when we interview the other people that have seen him there on the night”.
Reply “Yeah exactly, I’m not trying to, cos I feel you know, if he’s not involved, the poor chap’s had as much crap as us really, I feel very, you know,
he’s not involved but I do think it’s important that”.4078 “Get to the truth of the matter”?
Reply “Get to the truth of the matter and the truth is you know they, when they asked me to ring Bob SMALL to make these statements, we didn’t even know that he’d erm, hadn’t, hadn’t said he was there on the night and they didn’t know that I’d done the surveillance”.
4078 “No”.
Reply “Because I took it seriously”.
4078 “So there’s no collaboration between you all”?
Reply “No”.
4078 “(Inaudible) completely independent other than that”?
Reply “No, I hadn’t even, I mean when I got back, I didn’t even tell Russell what I’d done cos I took very seriously what the Police said in terms of not you know, not telling anybody”.
4078 “Yes”.
Reply
“So I just thought it was important to say that really”.4078 “Yes”.
Reply “(Inaudible), it’s not trying to build more of a case against him at all, it’s just my involvement in that side”.
4078 “Truth to what happened that night”?
Reply “Yeah”.
4078 “It’s, is how they’ve said it, it’s not something you concocted up between you”.
Reply “No, it was”.
4078 “And come to a conclusion that that must have been him”?
Reply “Yeah”.
4078 “That’s genuinely was something at the time”?
Reply “Yeah sort of at the time yeah”.
