Sadie's theory, the watcher and a getaway car.

Ive given two cites....Rowley says 90% success rate with serious crime
serious crime is defined in the 2007 serious crime act...


as you disagree with Rowley and question his experience......what is your experience in the detection of serious crime

So provide the crimes listed under that heading.

Second, what is Rowley's experience in this kind of case, bearing in mind he is not the head of this investigation ?

Figures have been provided to show the rate of solving crime in London is poorer than the rest of the country.

In my opinion ... The window was not open when he did his check as he explained to the police - no fluttering curtains, no sounds, no draughts - he reckons he could hear twins breathing it was so quiet but not notice a fully open window with cold wind haha - he was in there for a few minutes looking at books by the light in the living room. You have no evidence of it being open before Matt's check. Russell and Jane went through the car park after Matt's check and didn't notice a unmissable raised shutters and open window from one of the children's bedroom. The twins didn't wake with an open window for 30 minutes. No evidence leads to an open window before Matt's check. In my opinion ... The only person that connected to an open window before Matt's check was Tannerman who McCann supporters love to blame as the abductor.

Listen Up! SY has found Tannerman. He is history!

Caveat added

Matt didn't say he could HEAR the twins breathing,  he said he could see them breathing,   now how come it was light enough for him to see that the twins were breathing?

He also says this -  Reply 'The rest is just sort vague impressions of, erm, of the colour of the curtains, I couldn't tell what particular pattern, but I just remember green and yellow with that. And there may have been a duvet on the back bed behind the two cots. But nothing else specific'.

GREEN AND YELLOW,  yet the duvet was blue,  the curtains were blue,   so how come he remembers green and yellow,   as Misty said way back 'the street light was shining on the curtains'as the blind was up IMO turning the curtains green and yellow.

[Jane Mcard]

If Matt could see the twins breathing he would have to go right up to the cots, therefore passing Madeleine's alleged bed, so he couldn't have missed her if he was ever in the room at all imo.

Not necessarily,  he could see the rise and fall of their breathing from the doorway  IMO,   they were found with covers off them.

Found by whom?  Where were the covers? Had the twins been put down without bedclothes?

Has he got x-ray eyes? Even with the door fully open I defy anyone to see into the brown cot, let alone seeing the occupant breathing.

I've explained this many times. Slats were open which Matt didn't know about (see Gerry's 10 May statement). That made the street lamp outside shine into the bedroom which made it look lighter than normal to Matt. No window was open or shutters raised when he checked.

[Lace]

Ok,   I was wrong about the cover.   Kate said she found the twins with lying on the fronts with their knees up under their tummies.   So it is possible he saw the rise and fall of their breathing.

It is what Matt says in his statement,  can you give a reason as to why he would lie to the police?

[jassi]

Of course I could give you a reason, but what would be the point - it would be removed almost straight away

[Lace]

There is no reason why he would lie,  the twins were alive in 5a so they were breathing weren't they?

[Eleanor]

I would be interested to know why you think he would lie about the twins breathing.  Especially as they obviously were.

[G-Unit]

I can't and I don't need to. He made a statement but the photo suggests that he was wrong. In your opinion was it  possible to see a child breathing in the brown cot?
