Remembering you all, with love, Dee Sadler.

"No Winter Lasts Forever, And No Spring Skips Its Turn"
Hal Borland (1900-1978), naturalist, writer and journalist.
I wanted to write a little about the Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) application, but the difficulty I have is that to do it justice I would need to write twenty pages, but I won't. Easter time is all about hope, and I want to tell you that I feel hope very strongly and also thank the people who have been working so hard to help me, especially as we all move from a long winter of covid restrictions into hope this spring.
Firstly, it’s been a team effort. Of course, I’ve been doing the jail time, but it would be impossible to fight a miscarriage of justice on your own. There has also been a huge amount of pressure on me to submit a new application to the CCRC since 2012 when they rejected my last application.
Luckily, those closest to me have trusted me, when I’ve said, there is more evidence for us to find, so we’ll wait a bit longer and do some more research before we make the decision to submit an application to the Commission.
I’m very grateful to my Campaign Team for trusting me – even though I know at times they have felt frustrated, because we’ve not had an application currently under investigation. Rallying support during the past ten years has been quite hard work without a CCRC application under way. The media have taken less notice of our campaign and gaining supporters has been quite hard work.
Now is the right time for us to submit an application to the Commission. We have identified eight issues, each of which contain multiple grounds of appeal that we all believe are totally unanswerable by Essex Police or the CPS. These new grounds are true, utterly compelling, backed up by evidence and they are also simple to understand.
I have complete confidence in the Commission to investigate our eight grounds of appeal in a timely manner. I don’t doubt that our submissions have already been read by the commissioners and that matters will move along quickly.
I am very excited by all of the evidence that has been uncovered. I wish that it hadn’t taken 19 years since my last appeal to apply for another one, but it is what it is, and now we are ready to ask for another appeal.
I know that as many of you celebrate Easter over the next few days, that we can be optimistic and filled with hope, that over the coming weeks we can finally look forward to receiving justice for both me and for my mum and dad. I have dreamt of my freedom every day since 29 September 1985, perhaps my freedom is just around the next corner – I hope so.
Happy Easter!

Application to the Criminal Cases Review Commission, 10th March 2021
"I am filled with hope and anticipation that the new submissions to the Criminal Cases Review Commission will achieve a speedy referral to the Court of Appeal.
My legal team have worked tirelessly on the new application which contains multiple new grounds never previously put forward for consideration. All of the grounds, are supported by fresh evidence, including forensic reports and address every aspect of the prosecution case made against me and now conclusively prove my innocence.
In addition, our comprehensive submissions contain the evidence to prove that the jury at my trial were not provided with the full facts, and that they were misled repeatedly on the key elements of the case. We also set out the now provable mistakes and corrupt actions of Essex Police officers which impacted on the original investigation against me, and continue to do so to this day.
The lack of disclosure by Essex Police has been at the heart of my case from the outset, and is still a feature today in an attempt by the Essex Police to maintain my wrongful conviction. I feel confident however that the CCRC will do their utmost to achieve disclosure of vital material in order to obtain my justice."

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2020
I am wishing everyone a happy Christmas of course, though it seems such a difficult festive season this year due to Covid 19 restrictions.
This has been such an awful year for everyone, and my heart goes out to all of my friends who have lost loved ones because of this dreadful virus. It is just so sad. Finding words of comfort at times like these is impossible, because the pain of loss is so acute, but I want my friends to know that I am always here to listen and talk through the pain that losing loved ones brings.
It does seem that hope may be on the way with a vaccine, and it appears that this has been developed really quickly, but actually, the science of how to make the right vaccine for any given virus, is very well developed. Plus, there was no red tape or funding issues to worry about. With luck, by this time next year the Covid 19 virus will be considered history. Which brings me to my news.
I had hoped to say that I have news that I can share with you all, that is sadly not the case. I am disappointed, but it is hoped that by the end of January 2021, that we will have uplifting news to share. By then I will have spent my thirtieth, fortieth, fiftieth and my sixtieth birthdays in prison, in total, over one point one billion seconds of innocent imprisonment.
However, I am not saying this to make anyone feel sad, because I have hope, and hope is what keeps the human spirit alive, without hope there is nothing. So, we must all have hope that 2021 is going to be better than 2020. This is something worth holding on to, because hope is the fuel of endeavour to achieve, both justice for me, and days of happiness for us all, in the coming New Year.
I want to thank everyone for their kind support these past 12 months. Especially great have been Yvonne’s and Philip’s zoom meetings. These seem to have been a triumph, and we have some great topics lined up for the year to come.
Happy Christmas, and I will see you all in the New Year, as justice may well prevail.
Bye for now,
Jeremy

Anniversary: 34 years since the wrongful conviction of Jeremy Bamber
The Last Post?
As another anniversary of my conviction comes around, on the 28th October, I am pleased to say that the case has moved forward considerably over the last couple of years.
Up until then, knowing my innocence, I always had great hope that the judicial system would eventually have to accept that the case against me was just plain wrong.
Now, because of the huge strides that we have made in disproving every facet of the prosecution’s case, I now have, not hope, but a real expectation that we will shortly achieve a favourable resolution of my case, my innocence proven, and that I will finally be released.
We now have an overwhelming amount of evidence that not only undermines every single aspect of the prosecution case but proves that all of the major elements of that case were either deceptions or fabrications.
All of this exculpatory evidence will shortly be presented to the CCRC. We believe that within the corpus of submissions there are at least ten separate issues, each of which, on their own merit, should overturn my conviction.
Taken together, they make the case for my innocence utterly irrefutable.
In addition, the recent Channel 5 documentary, “White House Farm Murders: the New Evidence”, which featured some of the issues we have already released, showed that once the proper evidence is put before the public, they realise very quickly that a serious miscarriage of justice has taken place.
With all of these different threads coming together, I firmly expect that the freedom that was so unjustly taken from me will soon be restored.
In the meantime, thank you, as always, for your many letters and emails of support which have been so heart-warming to read during these uncertain times for everyone.
I am confident that I will be able to thank you all in person soon, and I am greatly looking forward to being able to do that.

Statement from Jeremy on the 9th December 2019 regarding a Judicial Review of the CPS
Monday, 21 October 2019
Message from Jeremy Bamber
"It is these many of messages of support and goodwill I have received from you all that keeps me focused and determined to correct my wrongful and unlawful conviction. A big thank you also to Matthew Young and the Daily Mirror for enabling the public at large to read the truth about just one of the ways Essex Police, and the prosecution manipulated the case against me.
The public reaction to this new alibi evidence being released makes me smile knowing how much more evidence of my innocence has been uncovered on every aspect of my case which has yet to be put into the public arena.
I’m currently working hard with my legal and campaign team to achieve a referral to the Court of Appeal as soon as possible. I feel excited at what the future holds, and I will be able to share more news with you in the next few weeks."
