However, he then abandons that reasoning, and reinstates the motive. He tells Carradine that the Princes were “the vital ones” for Henry to eliminate, because they stood between Henry and the throne. And maybe because I may have ocd, I have pages of notes with similar contradictions by Grant.

Lol, In the States we had a couple of high profile trials. That tossed evidence out the window. OJ Simpson and Casey Anthony. They won.
