### JON Our own investigations into the band “[[Grifter's Bone|Grifter’s Bone]]” yielded little that [[Ling, Jennifer|Ms. Ling]] did not include in her own, remarkably comprehensive article “Spooks and solos: the slim pickings of [[Grifter's Bone|Grifter’s Bone]]”. Certainly her statement appears to be easily the most detailed account of any encounter with the band, assuming it is to be trusted. The [[Dean Street Jazz Club]] strenuously denies any violence took place on its premises during the dates in question, and there are no [[UK Metropolitan Police Service|police]] reports that seem to match up with [[Ling, Jennifer|Ms. Ling]]’s description. Well, I suppose that’s not quite true. According to police reports, in the month of [[2013-10-01 - 2013-10-31|October 2013]], there were a total of eleven deaths by violence in the [[Greater London]] area. It’s impossible to match the details of all of them based on the information in [[Ling, Jennifer|Ms. Ling]]’s statement, but one of the victims, [[Sands, Albert|Mr. Albert Sands]], 67 years old, and beaten to death in his own home. Although it happened two weeks before the events of this statement, according to the police he was wearing a silk dressing gown when he was brutally murdered. We are unfortunately unable to follow up with [[Ling, Jennifer|Ms. Ling]]; it seems roughly two weeks after giving this statement she assaulted [[Norrell, Agatha|Agatha Norrell]], her elderly neighbour, with a claw hammer. [[Norrell, Agatha|Ms. Norrell]] was left in a coma from which she did not recover, while [[Ling, Jennifer|Ms. Ling]] turned the hammer upon herself. By the time the police arrived, she had done so much damage to her head that… there was no hope of saving her. I have an uncomfortable feeling she might have finally gotten that video to work.
