The Diary—Old Hoax or New?

Jesus Christ. Keep up Trevor...

Why didn’t anyone think of the auction house?

I can see now why Trevor was a detective.

Yes, Trevor they had been contacted. Their own records for that era were not computerised and relied and whatever paper files they had.

There was an auction which possibly took place on Tuesday the 31st of March 1992. This is the awesome auction that apparently Mike was able to source the final scrapbook.

Except there are no records that such a scrapbook was for sale. Was sold as part of “Misc items” (conveniently) according to some. Mike also claimed he had an auction ticket confirming it. Except no other human being has actually seen this ticket. Also, the process in which he describes the auction was not how the auctioneers themselves claimed their auctions were conducted.

A dead duck for those Barrett believers.

If you think childish antics shuts down the debate, then I guess maybe it is you who needs the eye test.

On the contrary, ero, I think the last thing John wants is to shut down the debate. What on earth would he do all day, if he wasn't here, giving us the benefit of his wisdom?

Norman wisdom, that is.

Love,

Has anybody bothered to check with the auction company, I know that with auctions before you can bid you have to set up an account which is set up and retained on the auction house computer system, and all transactions are kept on the persons file.

I'm just trying to educate the foolish.

No, John. You are just here to disagree in a rather insulting and disagreeable fashion.

If you have finished your own education on this and every other subject under the sun, why not take all your books to the charity shop, switch off the internet and put your feet up for a nice nap?

Love,

Since you are so well-informed, John, perhaps you could 'get real' and enlighten the rest of us regarding what you have decided Mike Barrett's [double t] motivation was for trying to make a clean breast of it, between June 1994 and April 1999, but then changing the story many times, and ultimately failing to produce his auction ticket, which would have finally cleared his guilty conscience in readiness for making his peace with his Maker in 2016.

Here's a bit of friendly advice: start by teaching yourself how to spell the man's surname correctly and your credibility will increase accordingly.

You are most welcome.

Love,

Hi Caz,

I was in Brighton on Wednesday, I could have popped in for a cup of tea and said hello to Monty.

Hi Herlock,

Sadly, that would have been a bit difficult, since we are in Sidmouth, East Devon, which is a fair old trot from Brighton - even for Monty. He draws the line at Bournemouth!

The good news is that if you are down our way in late September and fancy saying hello to Monty, you could feed him while we are away on holiday, to help save Sid Valley's mouse and bird population.

The less good news is that we are booked to go to Rhodes.

Love,

Caz

Because Mike Barret a published author who claimed to have written the diary would be the last person who could have written the diary. Get real.

Honestly, ero b, my decision to block the child's posts (the first and only time I have ever done so in nigh-on 20 years of reading the Casebook) was the best thing I have done this year (Jack-related).

I strongly recommend it to you and anyone else who is simply irritated by his infantile repetition and bleating about things unproven as if they were fact.

I'm a child? Your the one who believes all the Maybrick bullshit.

I should stress that I assume he is a child. I'd hate to think this behaviour was stemming from a grown adult.

Who’s a pretty boy then?

Immaturity.

It's pointless trying to educate the foolish. You are a troll by the way blindly accepting all the bullshit about Maybrick.

The Barretts wrote the diary and the Watch markings were not written by James Maybrick.
