| Dai Morris on 13:26 - Aug 23 with 3462 views | trampie | I know two different people from Clydach (who don't know each other, one born and bred and moved out, one moved in after marriage), both have told me that the locals as well as themselves don't think Morris did it and that the police had something to do with it. And that is the gist of it in many ways, was it beyond reasonable doubt ? |  |

Two different juries thought it was beyond reasonable doubt. |  |

Local people gossip. It's why juries are the best arbiters of what they believe to be true. As I say,nobody but Morris knows the truth. |  |

I haven't made my mind up, I just don't know, but its just such a tragic loss of life, I've no intention of reading the book though. |  | |  |

Well I know a lot of people, including at least thirty living on Kelvin Road who are certain Morris was the murderer. I know that they are all more content this evening. As Glyndwr says, something isn't right but it doesn't mean Morris didn't do it. |  |

Yes exactly, something is not right. |  |

Thanks for posting as I hadn’t seen this. I am sure there will be people out there who won’t accept this latest development and will remain steadfast in their belief Morris was innocent, however the results of these latest tests certainly strengthen the case against Morris. It appears the juries who heard the cases were right and the Guilty verdict was correct. Hopefully people will now be able to draw a line under the matter and the families affected will get some closure. |  | |  |

"Hopefully people will now be able to draw a line under the matter and the families affected will get some closure" Amen to that. |  |

Yep my sister lives in Clydach and all her family friends and neighbours are convinced Morris did it.. |  | |  |
| Dai Morris on 16:42 - Oct 24 with 2102 views | Minesapint | The book in question is so badly written. That aside, despite the strange behaviour of the police, let's not forget two juries agreed and found Morris guilty. |  | |  |
| Dai Morris on 09:16 - Nov 9 with 1888 views | britferry | A very dignified response from the family... In a statement, the family of Mandy Power, her daughters Katie and Emily, and Doris Dawson said: "In June 1999 our much loved Mam, sister Mandy and our nieces Katie and Emily were cruelly taken from us in the most horrific way anyone could ever imagine. The person responsible for these horrific crimes was David George Morris. "The loss and grief our family went through and continue to go through is heart-breaking and affects so many aspects of lives. No family should ever go through what we have and still do. "It hasn't been helped by the constant campaigns, protests, incorrect media reports, make-believe books and TV programmes that have mislead some of the public into believing Morris is innocent. These have blatantly ignored proven facts and replaced them with misinformation to hide the truth. "During their investigation, police found a chain at the scene of the murders in Mandy's home, which was worn by the killer. Morris swore on his children’s lives that the chain was not his. Weeks before the first trial, the police found paint between the links of the chain which forensically matched the paint on Morris’s kitchen units/worktops and it was only then that Morris admitted that the chain was his. It was then that Morris made up his alibi for being at Mandy’s that morning. "Morris’s claim that he was having an affair with Mandy was the foundation of his alibi but this was totally untrue, he was not having an affair with Mandy and was not with her that Friday morning. Phone records and witness statements given in court proved beyond doubt that Morris was not in Mandy’s home that morning. This totally destroyed Morris’s alibi and hence his explanation as to how his chain was found at the murder scene. "On June 28 2002, Morris was found guilty and sentenced to life in prison. Morris then won an appeal based on a conflict of interest only, no new evidence being presented at this hearing. "The re-trial took place at Newport Crown Court. During this time, we again had to look at Morris and listen to lie after lie. Again, Morris was found guilty. Sitting through both trials and having to listen to what our family went through that night was heart-breaking beyond belief. "In October last year, a BBC documentary was aired in which Morris’s family and supporters called for an independent review and further forensic testing of various items, including the sock which was found at the scene and which had clearly been used by the killer. Also, this programme contained misleading information which has fuelled further irrelevant questions by the public, an example of which is the statement that Mandy’s body was taken to the bathroom and washed. This is utter nonsense and never happened. "Scientific testing has come a long way in the last 22 years and on October 18 the police confirmed there was scientific evidence of David Morris on the sock; sadly Morris’s family and supporters are refusing to accept these latest findings done by an independent forensic laboratory, which is what they called for. "We now feel that it is time that they accept that Morris murdered our family and finally let them rest in peace." https://www.walesonline.co.uk/ |  |

Only thing I'd counter is that the woman was driving up a steep hill and the fella turned briefly, it was 2am, raining but she got the drawing spot on, implausible but not impossible. Turns out that she used to go to the same gym as one (or both) and commented to a friend that she thought 'he' was hot. [Post edited 13 Sep 2022 12:03]
