Joanna Yeates: Is Chris Jefferies Raising Funds For His Libel Case Against Newspapers?

by | 7th, March 2011

JOANNA Yeates: Anorak was wrong: Chris Jefferies libel case never reached court before anyone appeared in the dock for the murder of the Bristol women. Vincent Tabak says he’s innocent. Chris Jefferies certainly is.

Chris Jefferies was given the full Robert Murat in the press. The Star, Sun, Mail and Telegraph seemed less than sympathetic to Mr Jefferies.

Jefferies was caught in the media frenzy that saw the voracious press undecided over a basic fact like the victim’s name – was she called Joanna or “Joanne”? – and confusing a verge with a“ditch“.

Now Jefferies is selling his flat in the Clifton area of Bristol – the one in the same block where Yeates and Tabak lived.

It was only last Friday that Mr Jefferies was released from police bail.

Joanna Yeates was found dead on Christmas Day 2010. She had disappeared on December 17 after going for drinks with work colleagues in the town centre.

Mr Jefferies was arrested on December 30 on suspicion of the murder and released on bail after two days of questioning.

What next for him?
