The White House Farm Murders: The New Evidence

During the night of 6 August 1985, Nevill and June Bamber were shot and killed inside their Essex farmhouse along with their adoptive daughter, Sheila Caffell, and Caffell’s six-year-old twin sons, Daniel, and Nicholas. Bamber, then 24, phoned the police to say Nevill had called him saying his daughter Sheila had “gone crazy and has the gun”. Initially, police believed that Sheila Caffell, diagnosed with schizophrenia, had fired the shots, and then turned the gun on herself. But on 10 August, after the police ended their examination of the crime scene, a silencer was found in a gun cupboard at the farmhouse. It was later said to contain blood belonging to Caffell. In 2018 a forensics report cast doubt on the validity of evidence relating to the silencer. On 7 September 1985, Jeremy Bamber’s ex-girlfriend told police Bamber had discussed killing his family with her and that he was involved. On 29 September, Bamber was charged with the murders. He was convicted in October 1986. But is that all the truth? Does the evidence make this an unsafe case?

He was wearing only boxer shorts. He was discovered by the pathologist at the hospital to have "serious" anal injuries and also with traces of ecstasy, cocaine and alcohol in his blood. The case drew intense news media attention and speculation throughout the UK, particularly the tabloid press, and has damaged the reputation and career of Barrymore – despite there being no evidence that he was responsible for Lubbock's death or injuries. Stuart Lubbock's father, Terry, and a group around him have pursued a vigorous campaign, highlighting Barrymore's role in the fateful night's events because they believe that he may hold the key to the "real" story of what happened or because he is a celebrity whose name guarantees headlines, including publishing a book.

A man, in his 50s, was released under investigation in March 2021. Essex Police said a file would be submitted "imminently" to the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS). The man, who has not been named, was arrested in Cheshire on suspicion of indecent assault as well as on suspicion of murder after "significant new information" emerged, the force said.
