Jeremy Bamber in brazen attempt for prison release claiming ‘fresh evidence’ 36 years after White House Farm killings
EVIL murderer Jeremy Bamber is convinced he will be released from jail imminently – as today marks 36 years since his horror slayings.
The infamous White House Farm killer shot dead five members of his family including his six-year-old twin nephews in a cold-blooded massacre at the farmhouse in Essex.
Bamber, 60, is currently serving a whole life sentence for the 1985 killings of his adopted parents Nevill and June, his sister Sheila Caffell and his nephews Daniel and Nicholas.
The monster tricked cops at first into believing schizophrenic Sheila had killed her mum, dad and kids before turning the gun on herself in the bloodbath, 36 years ago today.
The twisted mass murder has launched a second legal bid after claiming he has identified eight issues which would prove his innocence in the grisly crime.
A spokesman for the Criminal Cases Review Commission confirmed that his case had been submitted and would remain under review.
Though there is no official timescale on when that might be, Bamber has boasted of his confidence that he will be released – bragging that his freedom is “just around the next corner.”
'DREAMT OF FREEDOM'
In a letter, seen by the , Bamber said: “I know 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.”
He claims that there was someone else who was inside the house and alive at the time he was standing outside with dozens of cops.
His lawyers have also stated that there are eight grounds for appeal – including two phone calls which were not taken into account at the time of the slayings.
There are also claims that Essex Police tampered with the scene, and that it was impossible for him to carry out the murders.
Bamber said that there was someone else who was alive in the house at the time he was standing outside the farm with dozens of police officers.
His lawyers also believed that officers failed to enter the house of horrors for nearly four hours due to fears that someone was alive inside armed with a gun.
Previously Bamber described it as the “ultimate alibi”, after cops said that everyone was dead at the farmhouse by 3.30am.
Included in his alleged new evidence is a claim that a 999 call was made from the house at 6.09am – after police believe everyone was already murdered.
Carol Ann Lee has previously slammed his claims, after receiving hundreds of letters from the killer.
Carol, who wrote a book on the horrific incident, said that “nothing” about the claims made her doubt that Bamber was guilty – adding that the evidence was “absolutely not new”.
'NONSENSE'
Bamber had an appeal against his convictions dismissed by the Court of Appeal in 2002.
He also had a High Court challenge to the Criminal Cases Review Commission's (CCRC) refusal to refer his case for another appeal rejected in 2012.
Mark Newby, Bamber’s solicitor, said: “Mr Bamber is going back to the CCRC because he got a significant amount of fresh evidence to show the conviction is unsafe.
"It is now for the CCRC to decide.”

Bamber also slated the popular ITV dramatization of his murders, White House Farm, which was aired last year.
He branded the show as “such nonsense” despite having only watched trailers for the hit drama himself.
