I am pleased to confirm that I have today received a note from George Galloway MP who confirms that he has tabled a question in the House of Commons for the Home Secretary. The questions is as follows: TO THE HOME SECRETARY:- WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS OF THE PASSING OF A POLYGRAPH TEST BY JEREMY BAMBER AND IF THE HOME SECRETARY WILL MAKE A STATEMENT. The reply is due on 14th May 2007! I express my thanks to Mr Galloway for tabling this question in the House. I have uncovered the final piece of evidence that will prove Jeremy Bamber's wrongful conviction and may well result in prosecutions for certain people.

JEREMY PASSED A POLYGRAPH TEST IN PRISON TODAY THE 19TH APRIL 2007
The following is a summary of the evidence collected over the past 4 years which had been previously undisclosed to us and has since been submitted to the Criminal Cases Review Commission asking them to refer this case back to the Court of Appeal.
This evidence was not available at the original trial and it is our wish that the Court of Appeal consider a retrial where this may be presented to a jury in an open court – this we feel would be the correct and fair way to proceed.
The police were in conversation with someone inside the house after Jeremy had been with the police for over an hour and a half
The police did not disclose at trial that they could alibi Jeremy, documents establishing this came to light after the failed appeal in 2002.
An entry in the radio monitoring log states that the police were in conversation with someone from inside the house. This was two hours prior to them entering the premises and some hours after Jeremy had police with him. Evidence: radio logs
Two police officers and Jeremy had seen someone walk in front of the bedroom window
This verified the fact that two police officers had seen someone walking in front of an upstairs window, confirmed by Jeremy when they were watching the house soon after their arrival. A report of this sighting was sent to headquarters by police radio but has never been disclosed and was later dismissed as ‘shadows’ – this begs the question of what caused those ‘shadows’?
All radio messages were logged by hand and recorded on audio tape. The radio logs made available to the court appear to have been edited and rewritten. Access to these audio recordings would reveal the truth of this but Essex police refuse to hand them over for analysis.
The Essex coroner was provided with evidence sufficient for him to allow the release of the bodies for burial and cremation. The police had informed him that the investigation was ongoing but on the basis of four murders and a suicide. The documents and evidence to substantiate this were lost as were the corononer's files and records – where are the duplicate copies? Freedom Of Information Act Ombudsman still trying to obtain police pocket books from Essex police, so far without success.
A male and a female body was seen in the kitchen prior to the police entering the house and identified by different police officers after entry was made to the kitchen
Prior to entering the house two police officers looked into the kitchen through the window and identified a female body. On entering the house the raid team discovered a male and a female body in the kitchen and three further bodies upstairs – all were assumed to be deceased.
There was an operator monitoring a telephone which was off the hook in the kitchen. This was also being recorded. As the police entered the kitchen voices and movement could be heard and this was written in the log. The audio recording is being withheld by Essex police. It would reveal what was being said by whom and why. This is important because at 7.30am there was a male and a female body in the kitchen yet when the crime scene photographs were taken later the female body had disappeared from the kitchen and appeared in the main bedroom with just the male being photographed downstairs in the kitchen. Evidence: communication logs and excerpts from statement of APS John Manners
The kitchen telephone was used by Chief Superintendent Harris prior to the crime scene photographs being taken or any forensic examination of the phone
In 2002 the appeal judges were told by the police that the kitchen telephone had not been touched or moved prior to the crime scene photographs being taken. The radio and telephone logs prove that in fact Chief Superintendent Harris used this telephone to contact Deputy Chief Constable Simpson. Thereby destroying fingerprints and other evidence and causing the crime scene photographs to be compromised.
A crime scene video was taken by the police of the inside of the house, dictaphones were also used by investigating officers as they examined the house. The video tape and the audio tapes made that morning are still being withheld by Essex police. Freedom Of Information Act Ombudsman still trying to obtain this evidence from Essex police, so far without success.
Sheila’s feet can be seen to be blood stained in previously undisclosed photographs
The courts have always been told that Sheila’s feet were spotlessly clean. No photographs were available to the jury showing the soles of her feet. The pathologist gave evidence that the soles of her feet were clean yet photographs now available show the soles of her feet revealing them to be blood stained. Photographic evidence cannot be shown on this site.
The pathologist wrote in his hand written pathology notes that Sheila’s hands were blood stained yet left this out of his witness statement and trial evidence telling the court her hands were clean
The pathologist also told the jury and the court that Sheila’s hands were clean and stated this in his witness statement. Why it was edited out that her hands were bloodstained as documented in his hand written autopsy notes in not known. Evidence: extract from hand written post-mortem notes
No time of death analysis has been disclosed
It has always been standard practice for a pathologist to take a core body temperature and assess the stage of rigor mortis in order to ascertain an approximate time of death – it is common knowledge that procedure is time, place and cause of death yet if indeed these procedures were followed the finding on the time of death have never been made available or given to the court.
Defence wounds on Mr and Mrs Bamber show deep fingernail scratch marks. These can be seen on photographs which were again undisclosed to the jury and yet the pathologist makes no mention of them
Defence wounds on both Mr and Mrs Bamber show fingernail scratch marks made by someone with long fingernails. The crown’s pathologist made no mention of these injuries in his autopsy report or trial evidence. It was only when the undisclosed photographs were looked at that these could be clearly seen. Why were Sheila’s long fingernails not scraped for samples? Jeremy’s hands and fingernails were scrutinised and found to be clean and his fingernails short. Photographic evidence cannot be shown on this site.
Sheila’s wounds were still bleeding when she was photographed estimating her death to be at least three hours after Jeremy has an accepted alibi, being with the police
Crime scene photographs show that Sheila’s wounds were still bleeding at the time of the photographing. This puts her time of death no earlier than 7am, at least three hours after Jeremy has been outside with the police. Evidence: excerpts from statement of APS John Manners also see photo 28/07/05 on http://www.studiolegaleinternazionale.com/bamber.php4
Sheila’s body was restaged by the police prior to the taking of the crime scene photographs. The police had removed the rifle and then replaced it giving a false impression of the crime scene
At the 2002 appeal the crown wanted to introduce evidence that Sheila’s body was moved after her death in order to prove she was murdered. What the crown did not inform the court and the defence did not discover until later was that prior to the crime scene photographs being taken Essex police had removed the rifle from her body, standing it against the bedroom window frame. It was photographed in this position prior to it being photographed on her body. This is confirmed by a police officer stationed outside in an unused statement where she states seeing what appeared to be a rifle in the window over an hour before any crime scene photographs were taken.
Later when the photographs were taken of Sheila the rifle was replaced on her body and her hands positioned by police officers who used a bible to prop up one arm in order to keep it in position for the photographs. This gave a wholly false photographic record of the scene. Evidence: extract from COLP interview with PS Adams also statement of WPS J Jeapes
A note consistent with a suicide note recovered by the police along with the bible found on Sheila was kept out of the evidence chain
On studying the crime scene photographs of the bible found open on Sheila’s body it can be seen that a highly relevant hand written note is sticking out from between the pages of the bible. The parts which can clearly be read on enlarging the photographs are highly consistent with a suicide note. There is no record of this note. The police have kept it out of the evidence and it has never been disclosed to neither the prosecution nor the defence. Photographic evidence cannot be shown on this site.
Essex police told the appeal court that apart from two stools nothing was touched or moved in the kitchen. Photographs taken prove that two kitchen chairs were moved against the kitchen door prior to the crime scene photographs being taken. Only a policeman could have done this
On rechecking photographs of the kitchen it can be seen that chairs have been placed in front of the door the police entered through. At the 2002 appeal the judges thought this confusing and dismissed it as photographic foreshortening. The raid team police swore statements saying they did not move these chairs but how could they have entered the kitchen if the chairs were already there? Examination of enlarged photographs show the chairs were so close to the kitchen door as to make it impossible to gain entry and so they must have been moved after the police came in.
The personal pocket books of all the police officers who entered the house that morning have been applied for but Essex police have refused to make these available to the defence or the Freedom of Information Ombudsman. Photographic evidence cannot be shown on this site.
Two sound moderators for the .22 rifle were recovered from the house – not by police but by prosecution witnesses. These were given to the police, one on the 12 th August 1985 and one on the 11 th September 1985
A prosecution witness handed one to the police on the 12 th August 1985 and handed the other one to them on the 11 th September 1985. Both sound moderators were the same make and model. The first one was taken to a forensic laboratory and examined and taken away the same day for finger printing. During this finger printing process the sound moderator was dismantled, examined and photographed. It was given a forensic reference number and exhibit label. Evidence: excerpts from police action reports
Prior to these witnesses handing one of the sound moderators to the police they admit in their statement to using a razor blade to remove what they believe to be a flake of blood from one end and trying to dismantle it Evidence: excerpts from cross examination of Peter Eaton and statement of David Boutflour
Forensic documents, witness statements and police logs were altered to give the impression that only one sound moderator was recovered from White House Farm when in fact two were discovered
After the second sound moderator was given to the police it was given a different exhibit label and submitted to the same forensic laboratory for examination. Some time later it was decided by Essex police to tell the forensic lab both sound moderators were one and the same and could they alter their records to show this. The prosecution witnesses left out of their witness statements and trial evidence that they had submitted two sound moderators to the police and not one as sworn in evidence.
All of the above can be proven and substantiated by reference to previously un disclosed crime scene logs, photographs, witness statements, radio and telephone logs and pocket book entries, police and forensic lab memos, forensic examination records and trial and appeal transcripts
As already mentioned there is still a lot of evidence being withheld by Essex police that we are trying to obtain – so far with no luck. You must question when they are convinced they have a strong and safe conviction what their reasons are for not handing over these vital pieces of evidence and information to us
