Bain, what's the answer going to be?

[NighthawkNZ:Me]

Not guilty
WHY ?????
Go read the book Karum co-wrote. eye opening.

My boss read the same book... and reckons guilty... what gives...

[twotyred]

Has the crown given any idea as to what the motive was, that David Bain killed his family?

If there has been no motive, then they are saying he is a psychopthic killer (which he clearly is not)

no motive ever put forward... reasonable doubt,he should walk.

[Indiana_Jones]

A book does not mean someone is innocent.

If David is accquited, that doesn't prove Robin did it nor does it prove David is innocent.

[YellowDog]

No - the defence did not call him - wonder why?



BZZT. Wrong - he was a 22yr old student - still living at home with Mummy and doing a paper round

As the prosecution says - there is NO forensic evidence against Dad, but David had his brother's blood on him

Guilty

OK - I got that completely wrong.

Yes I agree, he may have done it

[Ronin]

I am convinced that I have no idea if David is guilty or not.

I am however positive that I will disagree with which ever verdict the Jury reaches.

My gut says that David is guilty based on his 111 call but who knows.

Glad I'm not on the Jury.

[short-circuit]

Fuck David's hot to trot these days aye?

[short-circuit]

Specially if he gets constipation - I mean compensation

Ohhh you silly man ..... if your boss is like mine then hes a pillock ,
So im rite and he cant read.

Seriously , anything has a certain amount of self interpritation in it.
I read David and Goliath twice and i know it does not say he is inocent but it does make it clear to me there was a slack investigation and the tampering was rampent. Bad choices were made and inexperiance made it seem ok at the time.
EG , one of the bodies had blood running uphill from a wound in the pics and yet it was denied the body had been moved by anyone.

[roadracingoldfart]

We wont know if hes guilty or not guilty for possibly a few days yet.
But I hear what you are saying about the book, I havent read it, but did read the David Yallop book on Thomas.

If there has been no motive, then they are saying he is a psychopthic killer (which he clearly is not)

I agree and if he is found not guilty by a jury it will not mean he didnt do it , OJ Simpson can claim that as well lol.
If you do read the book im sure it will profoundly sway your opinion of a police force that wasnt used to dealing with such tragic crime scenes. They screwed up badly.
To my knowledge , no motive has been quoted.
What was to gain ? , even the house was only good for a bonfire.

[YellowDog]

When the verdict is about to be announced, I am sure that David will be 'ALL EARS'
(Fuck me - his head profile looks like the FA cup)

Using the Thomas/Crew case as an example.....
The Crown had their guy (Thomas)
Some beleive Len Dhemler did it.

After reading the David Yallop book, I figured (and this is my opinion) that neither of those men killed the crews, Janette killed Harvey and a few days later, killed herself (hence her being seen holding the baby the day after the double murder supposedly took place)...who dumped the bodies?...Dhemler.

The Bain case, David has served time for the killing of his family, he is on trail yet again for the same killings, I dont beleive he killed them all, just the one.
The Crown beleive he did it.
Some believe Robin did it...
There is a third senario.

[Number One]

13 years would still be a long prison term for murder.

Sad that it is only victims who get lifesentances eh?

Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought they got death

[Number One]

Thank you MR Pedant Sir. I was carefully drinking wine and editing my post to come across more CLEARLY for people like yours benefit note the change above

[riffer]

Sheesh.

No-one's considered that it was Stephen who nutted out.

Killed them all.

David came home, found them all and have a massive fight with Stephen in his room, and ended up killing Stephen.

whaddaya reckon?
