I wonder of the corner edge of a Pizza box might be sharp enough to cause a graze like that ?
I wonder too.
It was said in court on 10th October that they did not know each other though (widely reported in the press on that date) and AFAIK this hasn't been disputed in court (has it ?)
Many people who live in basement flats are extra cautious about answering the door to strangers. I wouldn't consider myself an overly cautious person, and my door is never opened without a chain across it during the hours of darkness ( but hey, that's me not Jo, we don't know what she did.)
I'm leaning towards the initial attack coming from behind, as she opened the door - not sure why, but I guessed months ago that he would go for a pass gone wrong excuse and I am just not convinced by his explanation.
Could the way her neck was held be consistent with VT's hand grabbing her neck and covering her mouth from behind ?
Dr Carey said there was no evidence of Miss Yeates' clawing at her neck when she was strangled, but simply marks made by the finger nails of her attacker.

It doesn't specify here but I'm sure the positioning of the finger nail marks shows that he was facing her.
