Amaral and the dogs

[mercury]

There was neither cadaver nor cadaver scent detected in the 2007/8 (shelved) enquiry ....

When was this proved? A cite would be very helpful here.

Edited to change disproved to proved......

Precisely Mercury it would be a bizarre exercise in pointlessness to hide something from noone.

the only people possibly looking and finding a body would be the parents their children and other checkers, police are ruled out here

It's still a bit on the fringe movement though

If you had a corpse in your house you may hide it away and not leave it on the sofa to admire.

that's a point I suppose....but still PF, stick it in the wardrobe?

I just c ant picture Gerry or Kate walking into their flat finding their daughter dead and sticking her in the wardrobe....

That depends on whether they wanted anybody to know about it.

If there WAS a corpse the scent could have settled in the wardrobe without it being there ever....and as I posted earlier this evening the scent could have contaminated some clothes if it did even without touching them

it is a conundrum isn't it....but not a conundrum to the point some have pulled it in the most ridiculous ways such as remnant scent of blood, saliva, BO etc....the dog question will NEVER go away because it has NOT been answered..many have tried and failed

Bung her in the wardrobe & run to the Tapas Bar screaming for help......yes, that sounds like a plan. Only in the world of a deluded detective.

That didn't happen but you do need a plan

Madeleine's name features just once in John Lowe's report:

An incomplete DNA result was obtained from cellular material on the swab (286A/2007 CRL 3a). The swab contained very little information and showed low level indications of DNA from more than one person. However, all of the confirmed DNA components within this result match the corresponding components in the DNA profile of Madeline McCann. LCN DNA profiling is highly sensitive; it is not possible attribute this DNA profile to a particular body fluid.


It doesn't say whereabouts in the villa that was taken from.

Don't you mean 5A, not "villa"?

It appears to be from one of the tiles behind the sofa.

and

Conclusions:
On 4 August there were collected at [the above address]:
- Three (3) spots from the floor, numbered as trace evidence 1 to 3;
- Ten (10) spots from the wall, numbered as trace evidence 4 to 13;

"286A/2007 CRL 3a" (see post above).
They did a dry swab and a wet swab of each spot, labelled a and b.
"3a" possibly means it is the dry swab of spot 3 on the lounge floor before the tiles were taken up???
(ETA this is probably wrong)

Are you referring to me when you say blood is a ridiculous as a remnant scent?    I remind you it was a forensic scientist who said that.

What we need is a photo of this whole area of tiles (with spots labelled) before the tiles were taken up
