Brown surveyed all the published theories, both evidentially and logically, in his book Move to Murder, before concluding that, on balance, a previously-unpublished theory "is the best explanation for one of the most puzzling murder cases in British criminal history." The new theory, first posited in 2008 by Merseyside-based researcher Rod Stringer holds that Richard Gordon Parry was indeed the brains behind a robbery, which turned to murder when Parry’s unknown accomplice was confronted by Julia Wallace after rifling the cash-box – after first gaining entry to 29 Wolverton Street on the pretext he was “Qualtrough”.<br /><br />https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Herbert_WallaceRodCrosbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16733476979193451931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291823984059320518.post-77181344498555324982019-11-02T12:22:07.303+00:002019-11-02T12:22:07.303+00:00I agree about Wallace - P.

James's argument for his guilt is very weak, as it requires us to believe that someone else made the famous phone call, as a prank, to make the appointment on the same day that Wallace killed his wife. In any case, it doesn't alter the fact that the evidence against Wallace was far too weak to justify the Guilty verdict (it appears that the jury had made up a story of how the crime occurred which bore no relation to any of the evidence).<br /><br />By the way, I would guess that James was a supporter of the death penalty. It would be interesting to know if there is any connection between people's views on capital punishment and their opinion on supposed miscarriages of justice.Jonathan Ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12653613829349599589noreply@blogger.com
