Just read the book
Hi
Just read the book and very fascinating. Certainly raises more questions than it answers. As an ex police investigator myself there are a few things that the book does not cover and huge gaping holes in the investigation for the coroner to reach such a verdict. You speak about a barrister being engaged for the coronial what happened to the transcript for the findings? What about the interview of the children it is not mentioned? The other bloke fits the description of a stalker and certainly more investigation of him sounded in order. Why can't they DNA test the samples now? There is too many holes to come to the conclusion that Vivienne Cameron jumped to her death. I would love to have alook at the evidence. Did the doctor come up with an accurate time of death? I have studied quite a bit on murderers, serial killers and women murderers and quite frankly that is a tall order to go from a wife scorned to committing such a brutal murder which smacks of sexual overtones. Anyway just some very primitive observations based on what I read wich is probably only a small percentage of the evidence gathered.
Just watched the TV-programme
...On danish television, and is also, as a journalist - curious about why the police never reinvestigated !
