'the logic of 2 young disgraced ex. Pru.men being blackmailed into the assassination fits with me..albeit that the sexual angle is very contoversial!'
It's total cobblers, Ian. Sorry, but there it...
Wallace was in a state of agitation. You can't condemn a man simply because he didn't use a form of words you think he ought to have used. Wallace did say "she won't be out: she has such a bad cold"...
IAN: In Wyndham-Brown, Phillip's testimony (under cross-examination by Hemmerde) states:-
'He asked me if the car went to Menlove Gardens East, and I said "No, you can get on No.5, 5A, 5W, or a...
What earthly reason could Crewe have had to 'lie'? Perhaps he merely clarified with the second statement what he really meant to say in the first.
Philips was scarcely a reliable witness. He...

Pure speculation: some spouse-killers kill 'personally' but quietly with poison or a pillow. Professional hitmen brutally pump bullets into skulls. It's not personal, just 'business'...
So no firm...
Please... where is there anything resembling 'evidence', never-mind 'proof beyond all reasonable doubt' for this theory...?
I hope to God you are never called to serve on a jury...
The testimony of an honest man who knew and worked with Wallace demonstrates that, for all intents and purposes, Wallace committed suicide in...
The honest truth is we will almost certainly never know who killed Julia Wallace. It's a liberty for Mr. Gannon to accuse Marsden of murder based on no evidence whatsoever, just a fanciful theory,...
Yes. Nothing in Gannon's book changes my mind. It's a bad book. Badly written, badly sourced, full of tedious padding, irrelevancies, rhetoric, rambling....
But I give him a point for unearthing...
Came across this very interesting 1932 book, Murder Most Mysterious, by Hargrave Lee Adam.

I've never heard of it before....
No, in fairness to the author I'll say no more until he's sold a few more copies...
Negative....
Cancelled my online order, and went out and bought it at "full-whack" price at my local bookshop, Pritchard's. Mr P told me his auntie gets a mention in the book.
Read it cover to cover in one...
Are we back? The last I heard was the site was closing down....
Btw folks, just a couple of ideas why (IMHO) the 'Julia was killed cos she lied about her age' theory doesn't fly.
1. Anyone ever heard of anyone else ever doing in their spouse cos of this?...
Crikey. How did I miss all of that? What were the photos of?
Btw, what happened to John Gannon and his posts (vanished). Has someone pi$$ed him off?
It's a bit like a court of law. You have to knock holes in the other fellow's tale to make progress. Don't take it personally. And don't call it nitpicking... It's supposed to be Demolition!
"offhand, I can only recall Donald Hume."
Tony Mancini (Brighton Trunk murder No.2) was another, but in his case the confession probably still didn't amount to a confession of murder...

"I would love to have known what the first policeman on the scene was going to discuss some years later with the WHW trial solicitor (was it), only death intervened."
Well it would scarcely be...
That thing came out in 1975. I can't remember if I watched it or not. I was only ten. But I DO remember watching something about Wallace as a child. The final scene remains with me. It was of Wallace...
The above quote is unsourced, and quite possibly apocryphal. Even if genuine it's at least 50 years old hardly relevant in the light of more recently disclosed facts.
"I'd give my theory a 95 percent chance of being correct"
Whatever. Can we have a full exposition again, so we can pick it to pieces?
