But your hypothesising that the cadaver smell was coming from Mrs Fenn’s apartment yet, as far as we know, cadaver odour does not ‘seep’ through walls and further there is no evidence any of Mrs Fenn’s furniture was second hand or that her husband had not died in hospital or indeed that she had transferred any of the clothing/items associated with him at his death to her new home.
Would you care to answer my question re-the rest of the tapas group’s lack of cadaver contamination?
A proper investigation/test would seek to eliminate the hypothesis I have put forward by entering the dogs into unrelated neighbouring apartments to rule out any contamination AND check on the history of 5A by way of contents and people traffic.
I find it hard to believe that Mrs Fenn's apt didn't contain some items she owned jointly with her late husband. They were married for a very long time and the elderly and those of a certain generation tend to get quite attached to their belongings. For all we know he may have died in his bed which was subsequently transferred to Mrs Fenn's. Alternatively Mrs Fenn may have struck up conversation with the owners of 5A and they ended up taking some of the furniture jointly owned by Mrs Fenn and her late husband.
I'm not an architect, plumber or construction worker but I believe plumbing in apartments runs vertically as opposed to horizontally. Only the Oldfields were connected to Mrs Fenn and that was horizontally as opposed to vertically. JT/ROB and Paynes were all one removed I believe and in any event all horizontally.
How do you explain the contaminated furniture in the case of Shannon Matthews? Do you think people died in their beds/chairs/sitting at tables and this furniture was subsequently transferred to the houses that were searched or what? In any event the odour clearly lingers on items that have come into contact with corpses.
