Well, we're now getting down to the nitty-gritty. The British services that cater for the many types of care
have offered their hackneyed statements to show how they're faultless in the death and injuries of all
those involved.
The narrative is being cleaned up, raised to a more-middle-class setting of perception with certain details
regarding regular visits to Chemists for prescribed medicines being mentioned, but not enlarged upon.
Relatives of Dawn Sturgess had previously stated drug-use wasn't an issue and yet the deceased woman's
so-called 'partner' -Charlie Rowley, was known to the Police for using heroin and dealing class A drugs.
The towns of Salisbury, Amesbury and its environs were scoured for any clue to the nerve-agent and yet,
it took these two people not trained in Police disciplines to find it. But where and how?
Today (Wed 16th Oct) from the BBC link:
'The most striking moment from today’s hearing was the recounting of the moment Dawn Sturgess
and Charlie Rowley opened that perfume bottle which contained the chemical weapon.
Transcripts of several police interviews with Charlie – at times contradictory on certain details
–describe their struggles to open it, the oily texture, the unremarkable smell and the speed at
which Dawn become severely unwell.
A question surrounds the way it was wrapped. Charlie’s statements were at times contradictory
but always pointed to needing a knife to cut through the strong thick plastic packaging.
Tests from Porton Down show it as the same type of novichok used to target the Skripals,
but was it the same vessel? Commander Murphy today said he had a “strong view” it was
but cannot be sure. If so, had it therefore been sealed back up again before being discarded?
Or does it raise the potential for there perhaps being more than one vessel? The inquiry has
been told it will return to the issue of the packaging in a later hearing.
But where – and when – did Charlie find that bottle in the first place?
That remains a vital question to all of this, yet he doesn’t seem able to recall.
In one police interview he says the poisoning, along with his drug and alcohol issues, have left
him struggling with his memory.
It is possible Charlie will appear at a November session via video link...'
The questions are valid. A neighbour called Tom Ricks -who knew the pair, suggested Dawn and
Charlie had gone to a park called Queen Elizabeth Gardens to acquire drugs from the folk who
hang around there. Heavy drinkers relying on Government benefits would also congregate in the
public recreation ground and being a vulnerable crowd, this would make sense for those wishing
to obtain a clientele.
But would this milieu be palatable to a hearing like this?
Let's see what Day Four brings.
