UK UK - Billie-Jo Jenkins, 13, Hastings, Sussex, 15 Feb 1997

Sion's book about the murder is actually rather chilling. I wouldn't advise buying it as that will give him money but if you can find a copy somewhere it is quite telling.

Just got it yesterday from the library. Will let you know what I think and if it changes my opinion that he did it.

Well have read half and Sion's adamant that he knows who did it and it wasn't him. Haven't got there yet but assume he means the plain-clothes "cop" with the invisibility cloak that he saw that no-one else did! What's troubling me and have seen posts here and elsewhere mention this, is the timing. How could he possibly clean up and change his clothes in such a short time without the girls seeing something? The killer must have been covered in blood. Didn't the pathologist or police say that? Am sure have read it somewhere. Was a very narrow time window.

For a guy who had just been appointed a head-teacher Jenkins doesn't strike me as the brightest button in the box either. Why invent a sighting of a plain-clothes cop? No-one else saw him. There were cops guarding the back and front entrances. Did he just beam himself in like in Star Trek? How did he get in or out? A detective would need to show ID. They don't let just anyone wander round a murder house. Jenkins said he was very kind, tried to console him and said "she's going to be okay"

Didn't he fake his CV and teaching qualifications?
