Bob Woolmer case Timline

The Jamaica police refused to comment after the Yard detectives revealed that Woolmer was not murdered. Has the two-and-a-half months of speculation finally been answered? What surprises me of all the events is the long period between his death and funeral (cremation) - almost one and a half month. Lets pray now that his soul may actually RIP, even if it was actually a natural death as claimed by the Scotland Yard or murder.
