[Mr Gray]

It's not my habit to insult people, but can you see the word confirmation? It means confirmed. The quote is from Grime's rogatory reply.


In this case in particular, where the dogs alerted there was confirmation by positive results from the forensic examinations.

Thats fine...so grime is talking about confirmation...not corroboration......so whan grime says ...in this case...what is he talking about....and what does he mean by confirmed ......the lerts need to be corroborated

[Mr Gray]

this is a direct quote from grimes witness statement..



The dogs only alerted to property associated with the McCann family. The dog
alert indications MUST be corroborated if to establish their findings as
evidence.

Therefore in this particular case, as no human remains were located, the only
alert indications that may become corroborated are those that the CSI dog
indicated by forensic laboratory analysis.



so he is stating clearly that the CSI alerts...may become corrobortaed.....which means they are not yet corroborated...


so are posters taking confirmed as meaning corroborated....waht is meant by confirmed

Same thing IMO  Confirmed = corroborated

[Mr Gray]

Same thing IMO  Confirmed = corroborated

if that is the case then Grime is contradicting himself...so  dont accept that

[Mr Gray]

Did you miss this one?

the cite you have given says...where the dogs(plural) alerted...there was confirmation by positive results..


If you want to beleive hat confirmation equals corroboration.....then grime is saying both dogs alerts are corroborated...that clearly  is not true.....

confirmation cannot equal coroborrtaion

They mean the same, Davel.

corroberation meaning;

evidence which confirms or supports a statement, theory, or finding; confirmation.

we cant assume Grime is using them interchangably......if he is then he is saying the cadaver alerts are corroborated...which is patently absurd...


MS is using them as meaning the same thing...as afar s grime is concerned ...that CANNOT be true


looks like MS is making the same mistake as you are...


Grime does say in his rog....the alerts are confirmed by the recovery of evidence
Grime says in his statement the alerts are not corroborated..

that proves me right and you and MS wrong

[G-Unit]

What were those Positive Results?

DNA

[Eleanor]

DNA

Whose DNA?

[Mr Gray]

DNA

either Grime is confused...chainging his mind...and doesnt know what hes talking about...or to him...confirmed does not mean corroborated....Ill go with the latter

[G-Unit]

Whose DNA?

Does it matter? Dog says 'look there', people do it and find evidence, Dog was correct.

It matters to me.

In my opinion you are wrong. Keela alerted and evidence was recovered from the places where she alerted.  Her alerts were , therefore, confirmed, corroberated, verified, endorsed, ratified, validated, or certified. Grime's choice of words are immaterial.

[G-Unit]

It matters to me.

It's all in the FSS reports;
