offlineMemberThe 'Barry George on stand-by' one-liner said it all. Every time the tabloid media feast on a murder (usually of a pretty young woman, preferably blonde), there is this hideous lather of innuendo, hints and overt pressure on the police.
Result: the local nutters, eccentrics and ne'er-do-wells all get rounded up and the one who can't account for his whereabouts and/or 'looks right' gets hounded into making a false confession or is otherwise fitted up for it. The Daily Mail looked to have got its pound of flesh in Christopher Jeffries - for whom read Barry George, Michael Stone and many more in days gone by - the only difference being that Jeffries is educated and intelligent enough to face them down.
This country is sick.

offlineMemberIt is rather entertaining to swoop back here for a moment to find that satirists who rely on stereotyping for their effects have come out to unequivocally defend Plod stereotyping, aka "profiling" as a crime solving device. My own "profiling" methods indicated to me that, on the face of it, the neighbour was a more likely suspect than the poor chap on whom the Daily Mail pounced. Jeffries was far too exotic to be an "obvious" or "usual" suspect.

The police tend to prefer hard evidence to a method that can be sometimes be little better than phrenology in its accuracy. Statistically, the great majority of murders are committed by people known to the victim - family members, friends, colleagues, landlords et al. So, perhaps the police weren't too misguided in taking a hard look at Jeffries.

If she had met someone off face book there would have been records of any interaction between her and the killer ...
A lot of people have got away with murder ,because the police did not not thoroughly check out the Alibi.Posted 3 years ago #
