Detective Superintendent Hill – who had secured the world’s first conviction based on familial DNA – could have helped while the evidence was still fresh. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8416013/Bungling-local-Madeleine-McCann-officers-froze-says-UK-detective.html

Found there wan no problem with his offer of using his expertise when the Judicial police had Robert Murat in their sights.

To produce a profile of him. I don't think he was asked to do so by the PJ; the first mention of Murat was made by a British journalist to Leicestershire Police on 6th May. Then an anonymous tip off was received by the PJ on 11th May.
Immediately the PJ started to gather information about him.

From 2007-2011 he was Head of Behaviour Analysis, Child Exploitation Online Protection centre (CEOP). His job was to advise on the behaviour of child sex abusers. Before that he was a Surrey police officer.

In the article he seems to be suggesting he had a wider role and a wealth of knowledge on search procedures and interview techniques. I expect he had knowledge, but no more than any other senior detective.

At the time he had no expertise which entitled him to interfere in or judge the PJ's investigation imo.
He sounds eminently qualified to offer advice re: a missing child to a police force out of its depth imo.

He has proven himself NOT to be an expert on this case. He claims the apartment was locked, 16 friends, 8 couples? He needs a lot of help! You cannot clear any theory with no evidence of a break-in. He thought it was locked and there was evidence of a break-in because he is ignorant!
Smithman carrying a child in his arms checked his watch after passing the Smith family and the time was 10:03. Both are still unidentified 10 years later.

He wasn’t offering advice on the number of couples or whether the door was locked or not, I expect he credited the PJ with enough knowledge to be able to work out the basics, he was offering more specialised advice concerning behaviour analysis and child exploitation.

Maybe he should have found this German being in CEOP as they were supposed to be looking for possible child abuse suspects in the area? They concentrated on Murat and missed him too!  A nanny claims the PJ showed the German's photo only days after the disappearance so they were investigating him as a possible suspect.

I wasn’t aware that UK police were allowed to conduct their own separate investigations on PT soil in 2007...

Starting with the Tanner sighting ... there are quite a few ... then you know that already don't you.

No... Tannerman has been accounted for apparently. That only leaves Smithman for a possible sighting of MM on the day she was reported missing.

He was just another uninvited, unneeded foreign policeman who thought he knew better than the PJ. He wasn't there to tell them how to do their jobs.

Dr Totman has been accounted for. What Jane Tanner witnessed may well be a man carrying Madeleine within that space of time. Totman would not have looked back and noticed that this person was behind him. My thinking.

Redwood never mentioned who Tanner saw,but what can be determined is whoever Redwood found obviously never saw any thing suspicious,thats why the timeline moved onto to a person carrying a child whose description was close to that of Madeleine McCann.

Gerry and Jez must be blind to not notice all these people crossing the road @)(++(*

How Tannerman can morph from Murat to a hippy Beatle is a more interesting question.

Totman, apparently, was walking away from block 5. I still do not understand how he was going towards the night crèche at the time? How would he meet with someone, possibly with Madeleine, during that time? In my opinion, it is possible that whoever took Madeleine was aware of all the movements that night. Tanner could have been witnessing what she thought to be Madeleine carried by a man, a few steps behind Totman.

IMO, they obviously needed telling but wouldn’t be told.

The Tanner sighting is not thought to have been Madeleine by OG.


and he looks nothing like the tanner photo fit either...
