Dunno if I am right on this but I thought that the night crech closed at 10pm ? If so, there would be no children there to be looked after, just tidying up to be done.
Anyone know what time the night (dinner) crech closed in early 2007?
It closed at 11pm sadie.
On the 3rd of May 2007, around 22H15, the witness was working during "dinner hour", together with her colleagues Jackie and Amy, when an unknown woman came to them indicating that she was a tourist lodged at the complex and asked them if they had heard about a disappearance of a child, whose name she referred to as "Maggie" or "Maddy";
- The witness also clarified that the crêche in the complex also offers complementary services allowing parents to leave their children with baby sitters during dinner-time, between the hours of 19H15 and 23H00;And she says she found out after Lyndsay did
She advised the aforementioned individual that no one had told them of the disappearance, who she believed by the name given, was Madeleine, also for the reason that Amy contacted via telephone her supervisor, Lyndsay, who informed her that Madeleine had indeed disappeared; And of course she was clear that she didn't enter 5a
The witness states that she participated in the searches, together with her colleague, Amy, searching various areas of the Ocean Club establishment. She also states that she searched the patio area of the residence where Madeleine stayed with her parents and siblings, and during which, she encountered many individuals inside the apartment but was not able to tell if they were complex employees or friends of the couple. She did not enter the residence in question;http://www.mccannpjfiles.co.uk/PJ/CHARLOTTE-PENNINGTON.htmLyndsay says she was informed by Amy Tierney at 10.20pm She indicates that on May 3rd 2007, at around 10.20pm, she was informed by her colleague Amy T. that Madeleine McCann had disappeared. At that, she immediately launched the "missing child" procedure. This procedure consists of dividing the site into several areas, which are allocated to various of the company's employees to start searching for the missing child. To that effect, the informant explains that, around 10.25pm, the date indicated, the said procedure was begun, dividing the whole site into three distinct areas, namely the north zone, the central zone (including the area of the company) and all the roads surrounding the company and which go as far as the beach. Five of the company's employees were mobilised to coordinate the searches, helped by various people ( other employees, tourists and residents)
http://www.mccannpjfiles.co.uk/PJ/LYNSAY-JAYNE.htmSo we have Lyndsay Johnston saying Amy Tierney informed her of Madeleine's disapperance and Charlotte Pennington saying she and Amy Tierney were informed by Lyndsay Johnston. Amy Tierney doesn't mention the telephone call.
However, Amy Tierney says evening creche was until 11.30pm
When questioned, she says that if the guests wish so they can request services from the "Staff" who would look after the children from 19.30 to 23.30, however Madeleine's parents never did this although the service is free.http://www.mccannpjfiles.co.uk/PJ/AMY-ELLEN-TIERNEY.htmJacqueline Williams who was also working at the creche puts the mother collecting the child at about 10.05pm
That on 3rd May at about 22.05 she was working at the Mini Club, at the "dinner time period" together with colleagues Charlotte and Amy, when a female individual arrived, whose name she does not know, just that she was the mother of a child there (belonging to Toddlers 2), being a guest who was staying at the resort and who left at the end of the week, who told her that a girl called "Maddie" has disappeared, and that the girl's parents needed help in looking for her.
She then states
Whilst this was happening, her colleague tried to find out and confirmed that a child by the name of Madeleine McCann had disappeared and that they were about to begin the "missing child procedure".http://www.mccannpjfiles.co.uk/PJ/JACQUELINE_WILLIAMS.htmWould this last section be concerning Amy phoning Lyndsay for information, or something else?
