VS claims the McCanns requested the police be called within ten minutes of Madeleine's disappearance.
There's not a great deal of evidence to support his assertion however.

Look I can't imagine Kate asking for anything else than for the police to be called immediately.   If the others decided to look first before calling the Police that needs to be assessed.

Miss Taken claimed that the media were called before the police.  There is NO evidence to support it but I don’t suppose you care about the truth really.

You have misled the forum with your comment regarding calling the media before the police.  Care to retract or are you fine to leave your unevidenced propaganda on the forum?

They requested for the police to be called within ten minutes of Madeleine's disappearance being discovered. WEre the media called before the police as Misstaken alleges?  If so you can provide the cite as she refuses to do so.

AFAIK, there is no evidence that they ever requested that the police should be called.

Matt Oldfield's rogatory covers that.

To save me agonising hours of re-reading that, does he claim the McCanns requested him to arrange such a call?

From memory, the answer is no.

Kate claims in her book that just after ten past ten Gerry asked Matt to run to reception to ask them to call the police.  Page 95 paperback edition.  Is there any evidence the media were called before the police? You seem cool with that allegation....?

As another claim was made in the rogatories, I don't intend spending significant time on this.

If you can actually quote what was said in p95 of the paperback edition, I will try to find it in my hardback edition.  It doesn't get fairer than that, does it?

Somebody had to do it,MO says he thinks  Fiona asked him to phone the police.

I pretty much have quoted it word for word. Why are you challenging my claim and not the claim made about the media being called first?

I can almost hear your feet stamping.

Many thanks.

I caught up with this when I read the rest of the thread after posting.  My days of trying to read through the whole of the remaining thread before going back to a key point have long since gone.

You haven't quoted anything.

If you know it's on p95 of the paperback edition, kindly supply the quote.
