- Fathers bus ride torment
Today
MURDER victim Alison O'Shaughnessy's busdriver father talked
yesterday of the times he ferried the Taylor girls' mother
to see them in jail. Bobby Blackmore's route took him past
Holloway prison, in north London.
Ann Taylor caught his bus to jail three times. "I froze
when she first climbed on," Mr Blackmore, 57, said. "We
recognised each other at once. "Here was this woman going
to see her daughters, and me bringing her.
And I could never see my Alison again. "I got so angry.
I could never look her in the eye. "When I saw her a
fourth time I just put the boot down and drove on."
A witness in the case, hospital worker Jeannette Tapp, 26,
who gave the sisters an alibi, had a miscarriage after being
arrested on suspicion of conspiracy, it was revealed yesterday.
Eventually, she retracted the alibi.
The baby's father, unemployed mechanic Keith Nicholls, said
yesterday: "We believe she lost it through strain."
The couple now have a month-old daughter. |
