So what actual searching was there?

[misty]

When the window is slid maximum open the resulting opening is only 50% of the total window area and this is normally the right (viewed from inside) 50% of the window area. So viewed from inside, and with wind from north, the right curtain and the right net will get blown in more than the left curtain and left net.

Can you explain the l/h net position & the fingerprints?
What do you make of the position of the r/h main curtain tie-back pictured on the floor?

It could have been on the floor before the window was opened I suppose. Would a gust of wind and a flapping curtain dislodge a tie-back?

The trapping of the left hand curtain behind the bed is the interesting question imo.

Rather like the curtain behind the sofa in the lounge, I suspect the bed had been moved before the photos were taken. Very little pictured was exactly as it was when Kate entered 5a at 10pm.

Maybe someone searched under the bed near the window?

As we don't know if anything was moved or not it can't be suggested as an explanation though.

Kate allegedly slept in that bed on the Wednesday night. Do you think she did so with the long curtains draped across the bedcovers? The bed did not seem to have been remade by housekeeping judging by the photos.

There was no housekeeping visit on Thursday.

No, there wasn't, you are correct.
MO did not describe the curtains at 9.30pm as being in the positions shown in the CSI photos. So changes occurred after 9.30pm if you believe his recollection of the scene.

No curtains were draped across the bedcovers in the PJ pics. The left hand curtain was trapped behind the bed and the right hand curtain was hanging down behind the chair.

Where has the crowdfunding thread gone?

That photo is not of Madeleines bedroom in 5A.

The window is on the wrong wall.

The photo is of Madeleine's bedroom. It is a press photo taken later in 2007, you can see her bed, and the chest of drawers next to her bed. http://www.mccannfiles.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/zzapartment5ad.jpg

Sadies referring to what looks like a yellow curtain over the bed and a just distinquishable window....probably photoshopped by the paper to enhance the vision of an abductor from window
