Thanks. I had missed that post. I have been thinking about this sighting. I would have recognised and registered a sighting of a minority of the pupils in the year ahead of me when I was at school so I think the confidence in this sighting rests on how well she knew Ruth. If they shared...
You have found another post from the witness which is useful. If the person I suggested as the witness is correct she would have been in the 5th form, one year below Ruth, at the time. The relevance of this is that, unlike 6th form, any younger sets are expected to be on the school site through...
A couple of small points;
The notes exist. Apart from the contemporaneous reports of them in the press there is also the refusal of Surrey police to release them under a FOI request a few years back. If they did not exist they could have simply said so. Also the notes have been referred to in...
I have no idea why it is not coming up for you. It is still coming up for me with a simple search on Robert E Spurlock with his exact date of birth entered (which requires an initial filter to birth records as above that level only allows the year to be entered). The record is not from the SSDI...
Ancestry has a record from the US Department of Veterans Affairs BIRLS Death File which lists him as dying on 26 February 2009 (and is definitely the right man as it also has the birthdate of 19 October 1962 and middle initial E). Whether this is significant or just the Army writing him off as...
I have now found a newspaper article headed 'The Execution of James Leroy Jamison" in the Chico News and Review of 10 March 1983. The article is about a failed prosecution for the murder of the said Jamison and includes the information that;
Fabian was a suspect in the November 1978 murder of...
An interesting book has recently been published called The Fort Bragg Cartel: Drug Trafficking and Murder in the Special Forces. It is by Seth Harp, a serious investigative journalist unlike so many these days and is being developed by HBO. It provides interesting background on the environment...
My understanding was that the witness reported seeing Ruth with the suitcase on the Dorking-Reigate Road (the A25) during daylight (no time specified). That in no way contradicts later events although whether the sighting is correct is another matter. If she was seen before going into Dorking...
Bump.
I am wondering if Luella Jane Armentrout is the Luella in this case. The reason is that there is a divorce record for Luella Jane Armantrout and James M Beckley in Oregon in 1956 where Louella is granted the divorce as plaintiff. I attach a pic of the divorce record. This would suggest she...
He was the family liaison officer for the Wilson family in the Ruth Wilson case so would have been very close to all the details - which makes his subsequent behaviour all the worse.
He reminds me of the other former police officer turned media mouth, Mark Williams-Thomas, who has made many contradictory comments on the Ruth Wilson case over the years. It is just about attention and money for sales and appearances.
Bump. Wall seems to be her married name as she appears (as Mable Wall of Savannah, Georgia) in her mothers obituary at Clarion-Ledger from Jackson, Mississippi. The clipping can be read without a subscription. Her parents (Robert E Gunn and Minnie Lee Moore) seem to have both died in the 1940s...
