I was at my Auntieâs house in Raheny for an extended family meet up the night of Sunday December 22nd, 1996. Watched the first half of Aston Villa v Wimbledon (Villa scored a load of early goals and won about 5-0) and then got the bus and the Dart out to Raheny with me oulâ fella.
However I did notice the very young Brian Fenton stalking me on the way off the Dart and felt scared.
Iâd have little doubt there was fellas dealing with stuff they shouldnât have been and it was a Case of out their depth and incompetence rather than anything sinister. There was definitely clear cases of the guards doing Bailey in and ignoring evidence as well.
The clothes being burnt was rubbish, Bailey arriving at the scene early was nonsense and the scratches were nonsense.
Also the time of death is very interesting. How did they happen on a late night estimate as opposed to an early morning one?
Iâd say most likely Sophie entertained whoever was that evening. Possibly some sort of fling. She finished up with him and he left. The two wine glasses being a pointer to this.
There was a phone call of reconciliation between her and Daniel late that evening too.
A breakfast type food was found in the post Mortem indicating the murder could have taken place early in the morning. Not late at night as is assumed by most.
My theory is itâs Possible whoever she had finished up with came back drunk and angry and killed her. It wasnât a random assault it was a murder of passion. Even where she was found she was running away from the neighbours with hiking boots on. Itâs possibly she was already outside early that morning when the killer turned up.
But yet they had cameras to taken dozens of photos in side the house where they had moved various things around which they arenât meant to do of course.
Very convenient they didnât have a camera
When they interviewed Bailey of course.
