    Contrary to popular opinion, we didn't dump the Privy Council, they dumped us.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    It's a bloody good job in this case, as I understand that some of the appeal court judges whose actions were criticised by the Privy Council are now on the Supreme Court....

    Probably the first time in months that the washing machine was able to accept a technicolour jumper, without having to wait for several hours...

    Not to mention of course that Stephen, (who had fought with the killer while bleeding profusely from a gun shot wound to his head) had fibres from David's jersey, (the one found in the washing machine) under his fingernails

    Or....

    That David had told police that he had put the washing on that moring and a bloody palm print of his was found on the washing machine.

    Or...

    That Robin Bane had nobody's blood on him but his own and that he was found in his own clothes, the same clothes that he had been wearing the night before, (confirmed by David in his own statement)

    Or....

    That the killer had walked in blood and Robin's footwear showed no sign of doing so.

    Or...

    That the killer wore David's white gloves even though Robin had a pair of his own.

    Or...

    That David has never been able to offer an explanation for any of the incriminating evidence.

    Or...

    That the media and Karam have made a celebrity out of a mass murderer.

    I'm nowhere as convinced of Bains innocence as I am of Watson's.

    I can remember when the bodies were found the radio news played Bains's phone call to the police. Would not happen today, but there was a lot of panting etc. I was in the car with the wife at the time and can distinctly remember telling her that I thought the phone call was false. It just did not sound panicky: too controlled and false. This was before Bain was charged. I'm not that familier with Karams issues on Bains innocence but Karam has or did have the rights to Bains story. I know some people who were involved with Bains trial and a lot of evidence never got to court. David insisted that the family stay in the home on the night before the deaths. He was so I am told very instant on this. He was also involved in amatuer dramtics (actor) which I did not know. But on reflection his phone call may have been an act.

    To me the biggest hurdle of Bains innocence is the full bladder of the father. Most men I know the first thing they do when they wake up is to have a slash. Might be different if ya gona top ya family and shoot ya self but the full bladder is a problem. Another hurdle that I have is motive. Much has been said on this in that the father was having sex with Lanaet and thh old man topped everybody to prevent this from coming out. Problem is that Lanaet is dead so this can only be confirmed by her friend that she told. Don't recall his name. While this was hearsay I think it should have been heard. I don't hold much truth in this matter as Lanae appeared a bit of a wacko like all the family.

    Bottomline I don't know. I can't find any motive why David would top his entire family but who knows do wacko's need a motive.

    And the other thing I would have thought there would be some bitterness if not for the fasle verdict at least for his entire family to cease to exist. But there is none. Or don't appear to be.

    I met the dude last year - didn't come across as a psycho killer...

    Personally I have had doubts over many NZ murder convictions - ever since AA Thomas was set up. Crooked coppers destroyed their own credibility with that one. That credibility has yet to be rebuilt...
