Bob Woolmer Murder Investigation Begins

Did he fall or was he pushed?


The discovery earlier this year of former Pakistan cricket coach Bob Woolmer’s dead body in a hotel room has triggered a Jamaican inquest that started this week. Demolished by Ireland the day before in the fight for the cricket world cup, the court is trying to conclude the cause of death.

The corpse was found on the morning of March 18 by housekeeper Bernice Robertson after she noticed an over turned chair in his room at the Pegasus Hotel. She also says that there was a dank smell of alcohol and vomit in the air and she saw blood on the pillow of the bed upon entering.

Speculation grew once the Jamaican Police ruled it a murder homicide due to mysterious circumstances. Believing there may have been another person in the room that night they requested Scotland Yards help in examining the evidence.

Not exactly an Agatha Christie tale still here’s the plot twist. British pathologist Nathaniel Cary has took the stand on the first day of the hearing and stated that he can not conclusively state how the one time English all rounder and commentator s life ended. Suspecting heart failure, Cary cited that Ere Sheshiah, the man who conducted the post mortem was better equipped to answer specifics of the case.

There are over 50 witnesses due to testify in the case, all the way from barmaid Irene Douglas who served Woolmer drinks to deputy superintendent of police Colin Pinnock.


Sure this may be sensationalised news and will probably end up as nothing more than natural causes but with estimates of an 8 week court session we have time to let our imaginations loose….or not.
