The White House Farm murders is a case that continues to fascinate and horrify three decades and more on. Those who have really studied it, including and especially the 522 paragraph judgment in Jeremy Bamber's failed 2002 appeal, know he is guilty. Now we have a fistful of psychobabblers telling us the same thing. Ain't wisdom in hindsight wonderful?
In this connection we can do no better than quote from the aforementioned appeal:
"A police inquiry into the matter was at once initiated and it is clear that the senior police officers involved, and to some extent the pathologist who attended, readily accepted at that stage that they were dealing with five deaths for which Sheila Caffell was responsible. However there seem to have been some junior officers, who from an early stage believed that everything did not add up. This view was soon echoed by a number of members of the wider family."
One of those junior officers was Chris Bews. Now long retired, he has appeared in documentaries about Bamber before, and herein he affirms what the Law Lords said.
The really compelling evidence against Bamber is that the only other reasonable suspect could not have carried out the massacre. Sheila Caffell was a slip of a girl; the idea that she could have overpowered Nevil Bamber in what was clearly a titanic struggle in the kitchen is simply not tenable. Likewise the forensics, including the staged suicide do not add up.
Returning to the psychobabblers, it is thoroughly documented that people react differently to grief; even if Bamber was faking that, what would it prove? Maybe he hated his parents and was simply glad they were dead? Likewise his disposing of family assets proves nothing except perhaps callousness or even shock. Whatever, this case is closed forever regardless of how much noise Bamber and his small army of dedicated supporters of both sexes continue to claim it isn't.
