Thanks for that info Sofie-
I come from a large whanau (and DB's isnt small) and I *know* they'd be for me in event of any evil thing happening.
There is mental illness in my family (depression especially -in all its forms (I am dysthymic.)) I think there is a * huge* increase of awareness of mental illness in ANZ and we're doing rather better than unaware punters might ascertain.
Not perfect, but trying-

Opinions are one thing: statements another.

Interesting that his family (what remained of it) didnt believe him eh?
Or that there were no committed friends? -
Sofie - agree entirely about sloppy police work (they've said themselves things would be done differently now). And I especially tautoko your words 'the brain is an interesting thing': DB may very well "not remember" - because if he did, it would destroy him.

Jackie, I'm sure not everyone *is* convinced of DB's guilt...and he served 13 & a bit years(not legal life.)
I'm convinced that he is guilty for some robust pieces of physical evidence that were never rebutted (think washing machine & handprint, and Stephen's blood on DB's shorts & jersey. And some very strange targets, drawn by DB that are illustrated in James McNiesh's book...
I look forward to the time when we have examining magistrates (a la Continental law) as well as a reformed jury system, and - as mentioned before - a third verdict, the Scots "Not Proven."

weird, nasty - and the seller is so polite I almost feel I should help in some way except-
I'm making sorrel soup. It takes quite a bit of attention.

Aaaaaaaaa!
Thank you Sacha!

(The Mac handled it, bass et al - and - robbery! I'd happily pay for the listening, if only on my machine (I generally only go fromCDs/dvds I've bought.)
So, Real Groovy?

arrrrgh!
2 now - each competing for an ear- -
Now, how the hell do *I* get rid of that one?
(which I think I last heard in about 1990)
