After reading the article in today's paper I can't help but being confused over the contradictions in Andrew Wheeler's statement. Why if he did not have the intention of having parties or making noise would he feel the need to sound proof his home. And ok he didn't admit to the found cannabis being his, but he previously admitted in court that he was in possession of cocaine. Anywhere where Class A drugs are present is bound to have trouble come with it. Also the terminally ill lady Mr Wheeler supposedly full time cares for, how is this so if states he lives alone? Surely a premises that has all night parties, class a drugs, and fighting etc is not the ideal location for a woman in this state. It seems Mr Wheeler is being a coward and putting the blame on others for the incidents that have occurred, however what he fails to realise is that what happens in his home is his responsibility therefore all the incidents are indeed his fault. I too have been a victim of anti social neighbours, and they always try to play the victim at the end of the day, however the real victims are the neighbours who have to live in this hell. I hope the residents of Crowhurst Road can now have some well-deserved peace and quiet.

I think you'll find he lied about everything. For instance he has other properties, i.e. in Shrubland Road and has made people's lives there hell as well...
