The Joanna Yeates investigation and subsequent arrest of her landlord, a 65-year-old Bristolian man called Chris Jefferies has seen the visitors to this blog shoot up.
Let me just make clear that I am not that Chris Jefferies, but a 24 year-old journalist and blogger living in London.
Feel free to browse through my blog anyway, and enjoy some of my ramblings on music, politics and the environment as a trivial distraction from this sad and tragic story.
Once again, just to make clear:
Good God…you are going to be inundated. Good job you got the disclaimer up quickly! Cheers A
Hey why dont you help the other CJ out there. Looks like others who call themselves journalists are “executing” him daily. You are getting a lot of traffic and you could set and example of innocent before proven guilty.
I see you have used his picture already to get yourself a little fame. Now be honarable and use this site to get some fair play and integrity in your work
looks like you’ve just been arrested on suspicion of murder chris…
You monster, I don’t know how you can live with yourself.
I see that you quickly changed your appearance – you swine. Losing 40 years, getting rid of the creepy long grey comb over and growing a fashionable beard won’t help you.
You are an evil, evil man!
Next you’ll be claiming you never played for the chicago bulls
mate you say it isn,t you but you look the same . to be fair twins. lets hope the police have the rite bloke so the family can get on with there lives and know the evil monster is caged .
Well no smoke without fire as they say!
C’mon – lets be honest – you share a name with a man who has been arrested in connection with a murder investigation – is this just a fantastic co-incidence?
Hmm – the Daily Mail will no doubt write a column about this in the next 24 hours.
Google brought me here… Mind you, I can imagine this is a good ruse to get internet traffic. I’m off to change my name to Jack the Ripper. 😉
Google also lead me here. Chris Jefferies Snr looks like an old actor (generally not murderous as they prefer words for weapons and maybe ‘gay’? Surely too frail to strangle a healthy young girl whose only reported injury was strangulation? You can see why the police would interview him as he likely had a key to her flat. Interesting he owned a few properties as he was a teacher…family money? Curiosity killed the cat but this girl looks like my little sister’s best friend from school days and the reports over Christmas got to me. Now she will just be another statistic of the two young women a day murdered by someone she knows every day in England. Is there anything that can be done to change that?
I hope you’re a better journalist than you are a cross-country skier.
When did you move over from Canada anyhow?
can you explain your whereabouts on that friday please .. lol
Some blokes will do anything for a free pizza…
How much in rent was she due ?
£4.50
The price of a Tesco Finest Margherita Pizza…
Was it frozen ?
Excuse the irony.
The ‘Real’ Chris Jefferies is PHHHWOOOAAAARRRR!!!
(The 24 yr old one that is ….)
:-0
You can’t fool me, you just put on a crazy wispy grey wig and some epic make up.
This blog IS getting mentions on news websites, so perhaps some good will come of your naming misfortune (publicity) 😉
Just out of interest, what amount of visitor increase have you experienced as a result of this?
Just keep an eye on the blog stats on the homepage and you’ll get a pretty good idea…
Where have you seen mentions of this, btw?
Well, it’s not The Washington Post, but – here:

Last paragraph. Quite an interesting article actually…
This would be hilarious if your blog was about criminology and you studied crime.. hmm.. lol
🙂
Congratulations on not being me. The things we have to do to get Google to score hits, and to get work these days is terrible.
Come on Chris ! He IS your Dad, after all. Stand by your family. I know you´ve become estranged but this is a real crisis. Drive over to Bristol and lend some support.
Don´t thank me.
A well-wisher.
Weirdly enough, my dad is from Bristol. He’s not called Chris, though…
I actually came here after typing in his name as you mentioned. It really doesn’t help that the google description of your site to people having typed ‘chris jefferies’ into google is:
‘The Joanna Yates investigation and subsequent arrest of her landlord, a 65-year-old Bristolian man called Chris Jefferies has seen the visitors to this blog’
I mean, it’s very related content, isn’t it?
i am also named chris jefferies. and i’m from bristol. it’s quite worrying. and weird waking up to it on local radio this morning.
don’t think i should go outside.
You poor thing! Really it must be horrible to wake up to hear that report. I hope for all the other Chris Jefferies the old guy does turn out to be (relatively) innocent!
To be honest, those two pictures look exactly the same.
What I want to know is how you’re getting internet access? Did someone smuggle an Ipad in to you?
Ended up here while googling for some more news on the story in Bristol.
Your now bookmarked… Just listening to 65daysofstaic now
Great Blog…
That’s nothing, you should see the things I’ve been mistakenly accused of.
I love that you put ‘me’ and ‘not me’ under your photos! Made me giggle.
I just had to reply – I’m another Chris Jefferies!
I live in St Neots in Cambridgeshire and my website has also seen a load of extra hits. It started slowly around midday yesterday and peaked about midday today. Now it’s gradually dropping off again.
I’m hoping it’ll calm down even more tomorrow. But I wonder how long before the web stats will make proper sense again?!
Wishing you all the best,
Chris
PS – I wonder how many of us there are in the UK? 🙂
OMG, i can’t believe you strangled that poor girl, what is wrong with you! monster! hahahah
Got to say I stumbled across this blog whilst looking for info on the murder case, and I’m pleased I did. Only about a third of the way through, but I am really enjoying it, you have been bookmarked, keep up the good work.
This awful crime could do wonders for your blog!!
Sent this to crimestoppers for the ten grand – your attempt to throw me off the scent won’t wash old man
Cashing in on someones misery is pretty low. In fact you knew there could be no relation between you and the older version of you.
I’ve no doubt you will be a good journalist as you seem to be aware of how to exploit others to your own ends.
Happy New Year scum bag
FYI, I’ve made 0p off this, but thanks for the kind comment all the same…
Hey Chris!
It’s clear you’re a time traveller but why did you commit appaling crime again?
I see you have waited until biometric facial enhancements have allowed you to completely change your appearance and come back to 2010 but why did you do it again!!?
I don’t understand why you couldn’t have left her this time!
hey btw Chris does it keep snowing like this each year? Do we buy snowploughs? How did we get out the recession?
You’re exposed dude!!
You’ve broken your pending bail, by setting up this website you filthy man.
You definitely could be the younger version… just joking haha
Anyway, has anyone realised that Chris Jefferies (the potential murderer) looks remarkably like Professor Weeto?? http://cracksheep.net/?p=26
Haha, poor you. Luckily you are pretty hot, so am sure most people stumbling upon your blog will be pleased they did. I certainly was 😉
I have a friend called Chris, once knew a bloke called Jeffrey, and have visited Bristol. Is there no end to these freaky coincidences?
Know anyone in the Bristol area with a light coloured 4 by 4 car?
Why on earth would anyone confuse you with another? There must be hundreds – if not thousands – of living “Chris Jefferies”. You wouldn’t be engaged on a bit of attention seeking, would you?
Bet your not the only one.

So I see several people have had a go at the ‘no, it’s really you’ joke…
Couldn’t resist, could you? Really funny, guys.
You could put a pop up ad on ur site and make a fortune!
Yes, but I’ve rather intentionally decided not to do that…
Your feeble attempts of a disguise don’t fool me!
You’re an arsehole and a crap journalist. You spelt Yeates wrong and you’re trying to capitalise on other people’s misfortune. Sadly for you, all you’ve done is attract loads of sick replies from unfunny twats. Nice work dickhead.
How is he trying to capitalise on another person’s misfortune? He happens to have the same name. Woo fucking hoo. Get a grip of yourself and I hope you die in a fire, prick.
Nick, I think you’re just a saddo that lives on your own, and everyone laughs at. You may be of use in a pub quiz, but other than that have no importance or use in life. Samaritans can be conatcted if you look it up on google
Chris, I consider myself to be a bit of an expert on bristols – but I’ve never seen any of your faces before…..
Hello Chris,
I’m also not Chris Jefferies from Bristol! I am Chris Jefferies from Ashford in Kent,now living in Jersey. It has been very freaky to hear my name mentioned in the media, considering our surname is not that common.
Regards.
CJ.
