Either everything must have happened as Bamber suggested — Sheila had killed her sons, her parents and then herself — or he himself was the murderer. There was no other possible interpretation of events.You never know…

Bambi is really Lord Lucan and I claim my £5!
Difficult one. Odds on he did it, but if he had shown contrition, sought psychiatric help etcetera, he might have been out by now.
Little green men?
I have no idea but the one question I think needs answering is why would anyone who was going to kill the group kill the easiest first?
Doesn't make sense.
Not the least of much unease is reserved for Mr Bamber's steadfast insistence upon his innocence.
Some of us can recall a host of wrongful convictions which resulted from false police evidence. Advancements in forensic science later exposed high profile cases, where it was proven that police planted incriminating evidence to ensure conviction.
Unsurprisingly, all those cases involved prisoners who steadfastly maintained their innocence. These parties were also consistent in their refusals to 'confess' guilt to the State in exchange for an attractive reduction in sentence.
Bigots will insist Mr Bamber is evil and the sheep amongst us will bleat with his guilt. Yet alarm bells must sound in the minds of reasonable folk when all the unusual aspects of the Jeremy Bamber case are carefully reassessed.
"Difficult one. Odds on he did it, but if he had shown contrition, sought psychiatric help etcetera, he might have been out by now."
Good point.
"I have no idea but the one question I think needs answering is why would anyone who was going to kill the group kill the easiest first?"
That's always bothered me too, especially for someone who is supposed to have planned so carefully.
Rather like the question of why it wasn't one of Madeline's siblings who was taken...
"Some of us can recall a host of wrongful convictions which resulted from false police evidence."
True enough, and there's a lot of unanswered questions about this one.
I think it's unlikely she killed herself first.
That's always bothered me too, especially for someone who is supposed to have planned so carefully.
He might have planned it thoroughly, but it doesn't mean he thought of everything if you take the matter of hiding the phone under some paper - as if that will stop the police finding it when they will be checking everything.
