I don't know if this is already being discussed elsewhere, but Redwood was just on 5 live talking about the sighting that led to the new e-fit. Guess what? Yup, it's the Smith family sighting! He failed to actually refer to them by name "it was a group of people..." but it was at 10pm and in an area close to the area of interest. The man was carrying a blonde child possibly in pyjamas.
This would be the same Smith sighting when they said they didn't get a clear look at the man's face, right?
Regarding the individual he states that: he was Caucasian, around 175 to 180m in height. He appeared to be about 35/40 years old. He had a normal complexion, a bit on the thin side. His hair was short, in a basic male cut, brown in colour. He cannot state if it was dark or lighter in tone. He did not use glasses and had no beard or moustache. He did not notice any other relevant details partly due to the fact that the lighting was not very good.
And Aofie:
she did see his face but now cannot remember any detail. She believes that he had a clean-shaven face. She does not remember any tattoos, scars or earrings. She did not look at his ears. His hair was thick-ish, light brown in colour, cut in a short style, short from behind (normal) and a bit longer on the top.
And from that they get the new e-fit. All for just £5 million quid. Bargain.
