So what are the lawyers ‘lacking’ who support these men?
Lawyers are human beings too, as are doctors: just look at the psychopath Harold Shipman.
Good education doesn’t mean a person is moral, decent, honest, fair, unflawed — suffers low self-esteem, feelings of inadequacy, Insecurity, jealousy, feels a failure at their job & in their relationships; feels unattractive, undesired etc...nor does it mean they won’t commit crimes.
The few lawyers who have supported him (besides the fake one) are not your highly esteemed lawyers. I’ve met lawyers and barristers who are positively unintelligent and can easily be bamboozled and tripped up. Many go into law by scraping through due to the determined pushing of their families, and they never quite make the grade. They plod along in life doing boring small cases, and so I can see why they’d like to have a jab at Bamber’s. They know there’s almost zero chance, but if they struck lucky they’d receive recognition, some fame, and make money by attracting new clients.
Then there’s the women lawyers...
They too can suffer all of the above flaws, and like all human beings can be seduced by compliments. A typical example is the lawyer who visited John Cannan in prison (I think he’s currently in the same one as Bamber). Cannon is rumoured to be “Mr Kipper” who allegedly kidnapped Suzy Lamplugh in 1986 from Fulham. I’m sure you know the case.
John Cannan is a convicted rapist and murderer, and was good-looking, very classy, well turned out, and seduced women with ease. Whilst in prison on the first occasion, for raping, sodomising and beating his girlfriend, he instructed a lawyer to visit him in prison as he wanted access visits to his child. The lawyer (I shall find her name), who was married to a QC went to see JC and quite quickly became seduced by him. She was blond, young, attractive, educated...but her attraction for him overcame all sense and they started an affair, which lasted a couple of years.
I shan’t go into the full story as I’ve digressed far too much, but I’m just giving my view why both men and women (though it’s mainly women) become smitten with Jeremy Bamber and suchlike. They find them physically attractive. That’s the crux of it.
But there’s a difference between his supporters : the lawyers/authors have self-serving reasons to befriend Bamber whereas the women who suddenly decide to write to him must have something lacking in their lives if they are attracted to him (as he was 36 years ago) and start to see their communications as the start of some heady romance. It wouldn’t occur to them to write to him if they had a fulfilled life.
You can be rest assured JB knows why they write to him, and I guarantee he laughs his head off at the majority. He wouldn’t have entertained those same women when he was on the outside, young, going to nightclubs, and chasing gorgeous young women in their 20s & 30s. He hasn’t “grown” since being incarcerated, so in his head he’s still stuck in 1985 and will still be attracted to the same type/looks/age of women as he was then.
I feel sadness for these women, because I can see how they’re being used and manipulated, and they all seem to end up being discarded or walking away when he “turns” and shows his true colours.
