Cold Case Review of Sophie Tuscan du Plantier murder to proceed. **Threadbans in OP**

So you're relying on an anecdote where it wasn't even confirmed to be her? And a tall man in a jumper? So no, that's not an indication that Bailey was in her car. At best it's an indication that a man was in a car with a woman that may or may not have been her. These theories are reaching further and further.

Typical of this case. Schrodingers car passenger. More information hints without confirming anything.

In the case of Schroedinger, it's about whatever is inside is either in the state of being dead or alive, and it's about not knowing and both states can exist as long as the car doors remain closed.......

This is how I would interpret it, if it's about Schroedinger's cat......

😀

This is the problem. You are assigning value to information like this when it's absolutely useless. Bailey wasn't identified as being with Sophie that day. It could have been Bailey or it could have been any number of other people.

I don't understand why you think building up 'non evidence' such as stuff like this strengthens the case. It does not.

Your thinking appears to be along the lines of the Gardai in Cork in the 90's? Pick a suspect and try make 'non evidence' fit.

Yep, there's inconsistencies in the evidence cited against Bailey, even from those supposedly which incriminate him. That evidence is also inconsistent with evidence that exonerates him, as the DPP listed.

If you list all the things Bailey is supposed to have done in the 36-48 hours leading up to the murder, it is quite staggering. James Bond stamina stuff.

Yes and no.

An all nighter drinking session, sleeping wherever he lays his hat... then missions (turkeys, xmas tree).

Out again drinking from 9pm to after midnight.

Then supposedly up in the night for a 'mission' involving a near 2 hour round trip walk.

Bond might have classier surroundings, choice of cocktails, entertainment but my point about the stamina required remains.

The stop in Ballydehob is missing from that timeline. That makes the Skib stop improbable. Plus wrong colour car, hubcaps missing, attendant wouldn’t verify it was Bailey.

just more nonsense.

If it was the same car it would be at least 15 years old in 1996. Would Irish cars of that age have a red number plate?

Also; for anyone that believes Jules Thomas covered up for Ian Bailey, it looks like that ship has sailed;

I thought the statement about the speeding car in the early morning was one of the more credible

I'm also of the view that she was murdered in the morning so felt the speeding car deserved a deeper look

If it was the murderer driving it, I would say that a speeding car would be one mistake the murderer would have made, probably the only one, as he left no evidence connecting him to the crime.

Who would have remembered a normal driving Ford Fiesta in the early morning? But anybody would remember a speeding car, nearly forcing somebody else off the road. Plus on top of that, driving fast doesn't really get you anywhere quickly as well, in these narrow country roads.

If I was the murderer, I would have driven normally, not speeding and nobody would ever have connected the car to the murder scene.

I understand your statement and opinion, but in contrast to unrational behaviour, no traces were left at the scene of the crime. So even this doesn't make sense. Possibly cleaning up the scene of the crime in relation to not leaving any evidence and then driving erratically?

We just know far too little.

A long shot alright (pun intended).

I mean he lived about 100km away, a chance encounter with Sophie on her 4 day visit would be slim. His mo didn't fit. I don't believe his work or hobby would put him in the area, as I believe he was a full time carer for for his mother at the time. I drive a 17 year old car so the age of the car wouldn't rule him out.

I often doubt the credibility and effectiveness of a lie detector / poligraph.

In many countries supreme courts have decided they are inadmissable in a court of law.

Legally, I think it's also not allowed, as it would violate the right to remain silent.

I think, only Belgium and Lithuania do use them, but not sure, if they are admissable in a court?

I don't think that there is an EU law about it ?
