I for one never doubted that he was guilty of murder- after all he had admitted to 'causing' AJ's death. Glad the jury saw sense, I was at first worried by prosecution's lack of evidence, but the defence had nothing to offer in his defence Cost overall - 9 million! crazy!

Interesting, thought I'd seen something ref children's fingerprints, wonder if defendant did too - In 1995, researchers at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, at the instigation of Detective Art Bohanan of the Knoxville Police Department, discovered that children's fingerprints are considerably...

Crikey - don't think the defence calling the defendant a paedophile was a good idea somehow. "A paedophile, if that's what you find him to be, is just as likely to have a car accident as...

n the scenario where the defendant may be guilty but there is not enough evidence provided by the prosecution to feel sure beyond reasonable doubt what should the verdict be = not guilty or unable/unsafe to provide a verdict? I think the defence is going to go with - He's admitted he caused AJ's...

Following Pc Parry's evidence the prosecution called another witness into the box only for Mr Kelly to announce he did not wish to challenge any of her evidence. As a result, Elizabeth Gibson was released before she even sat down. . . . . . . . . . . . . So the Jury get to read this evidence...

I understand that we need to know just what happened, but really do the defence need to scoop this low - Defence QC: When you say you saw her get into the car through the driver’s door. I have to say you are wrong about that. Do you understand? This is pure bullying! and she says again that AJ...

Hi bijoux, With regard to the first part of your query, I think details of a very recent case basically relate to what you are asking; A taxi driver confessed during police interviews that he had murder Sian O'Callagham, he pleaded guilty to murder, case went to crown court for sentencing...

Hmm, why would you call April's godmother before the police?

Thanks jigzy, Just for the record, I stated days ago that it may have been gun related. As ever, just my opinion '

Guess we all read things differently, The trial has to start somewhere, there is a witness to the abduction, without this witness statement, where should the trial start? are the prosecution really going to say 'oh yes, lets cut to the chase, drop the abduction witness & go straight to the...

Thank you for your help greenpalm - much appreciated.

For your information, regarding your second paragraphs' query, please look at my recent posts (I would link it here - if I knew how to) In brief; it stated that in a televised police statement on 04.10.12, that they were looking for sighting reports of MB's vehicle right up to his arrest at...

Agree, this is very disturbing, because I find children being interviewed (with adults clearly in the background) somewhat distasteful. By my reckoning,(judging by the background door panel height) these girls are about 58/59 inches tall which makes me think they are 10+ years old. My nearly...

With the greatest respect guys -think you're treading a very thin legal line here - we all like to speculate etc but, really . . . Is it relevant to AJ's disappearance? & would it be revealed to a trial jury? No it wouldn't.

Possible (if tabloid report of bus sighting is reliable) However, Det Supy Bevan stated in the televised press statement on Thursday 4th October that they were asking for sightings of the vehicle from Monday evening to 3.30pm Tuesday (MB's arrest time) I'm sure the police know roughly...

Concluded? Looking at the local area, I can't see a garage area 'directly behind 'the Jones' house.

Agree clutchbag - this is shocking behaviour from a so called close community, they should be ashamed of themselves. Bad dad doesn't mean bad lad. Good luck Scott.

Yes, his daughter is missing but it still doesn't mean that he MUST appear in the appeal.

Recently people have had their firearms licence renewed - with devastating consequences. Re related note,Maybe they were looking at his old address because he hadn't registered his new address?
