"In the millions of pages disclosed to Jeremy Bamber over the decades, in his bid to prove his innocence of one of the 20th century's most notorious crimes, PC Nick Milbank is barely mentioned. But this week, new evidence emerged that the late police officer held an essential clue to what happened on the night of the massacre at Whitehouse Farm on 7 August 1985."
"In 1986, Bamber, now 64, was convicted of murdering his wealthy farmer-landowner parents Nevill and June, his sister Sheila Caffell, and her twin six-year-old sons, Daniel and Nicholas. Essex police initially treated the crime as a murder-suicide. Caffell, the adopted daughter of the Bambers, a model who was 28 and known as Bambi, had recently been in a psychiatric hospital after being diagnosed with schizophrenia."
New evidence emerged showing that PC Nick Milbank held an essential clue about the Whitehouse Farm massacre on 7 August 1985. Jeremy Bamber was convicted in 1986 of murdering his parents Nevill and June, his sister Sheila Caffell, and her twin sons. Essex police initially treated the killings as a murder-suicide. Caffell, 28, had been hospitalized after a schizophrenia diagnosis. Her parents reportedly told her that her twins should be fostered, which was her greatest fear. Relatives reported Bamber's unusual behavior after the deaths. A former girlfriend initially accused him of contracting a killer, later alleging he carried out the murders himself. Several investigative inconsistencies have been identified, and demonstrating a conviction is unsafe can lead to it being quashed.
