Title: Stephen Birch Body Finder Extraordinaire Revisit
Post by: Redblossom on August 01, 2013, 05:04:33 PM

This one starts in Portuguese but there is a long Birch speaking in English piece after a short while



and kate mccanns reaction from 6.50



I know this is old, but I came across it whilst looking for something, and at the time, didnt really pay any attention, but today I watched the videos.

Caveat was inserted in the second video that he doesnt think Murat was involved


Questions:

1) Where did he get the idea in the first place that Madeleine could be buried in Murats garden?

2) Why does he state she died and she was buried there on May 3, and who by? How the hell could he know?

3) How did the Murats not notice someone for four days in their back garden utilising equipment, which surely couldnt have been silent! Or notice x person filming it as well

4) If he found shifts in the soil underground, how did he know it was not any possible phenomenon apart from a burial of a human?

5) How could he say that it was Madeleine? As, eg, distinct from a pet being buried and resulting in alledged changes

6) Mark Harrison oversaw GPR equipment and cadaver dogs utilised in Murats villa so how come they didnt pick anything up?

7) Did he really spend 50000 dollars or whatever it was to do all this?

8) Is he dumb?

There was huge reward offered initially, that & the chance for world wide fame.
I admire his honesty & as he said his motivation changed.

Why don't they (Gov, Murat etc) just allow the dig?  It wouldn't take long or be costly.
Just prove him wrong & shut him up.
What can they be afraid of?

For those of you who don't have 45 mins to spare on Mr Birch, his main theory is expounded from around 17:00 in the documentary (after he describes his 'religious journey' in pursuing this case).

He claims that DNA evidence was removed from Madeleine's corpse and planted above one of the wheels in the McCann's car in order to deflect attention away from Robert Murat and onto Gerry McCann. Files relating to the episode were passed from Portuguese authorities on to Theresa May, who is concealing them from the public.

He gives no actual explanation as to how the DNA was planted and by whom, and what in general was supposed to have happened on May 3rd, citing the issue of libel.

He speaks at length about diplomatic relations in the EU and how he believes these to be a factor in the case. But the main thesis is as above.

The man makes little sense to me...I have no idea why in hs latest video he said Tanner saw a rasta man ??? and 4 days later?? identified Murat who was clean shaven etc. Both false. He then says before Madeleine was buried on the evening of May 3,  the perpetrator took some of her dna to plant it in the car that the Mccanns would hire three weeks later...in order to deflect attention from Murat....how did he know Murat would become a suspect? Or the Mccanns wouldhire a car?

His theory could be proved wrong (or right) in next to no time for no significant cost,
The very fact that no one will allow it is enough to make me question why.

What gave him the idea Maddie was buried there in the first place? And on May 3? Theres too many gaps in his story for me....



You have a point, if it were me I would say dig the place up you idiot....and then shut up....then again, he is not PJ or SY or anyone remotely like that...if some nutter said youhad a girls body buried in your garden would you let him dig? Especially when he claimed he broke in night after night and ran his lawnmover all over the place....if the police asked me I might say ok

Yep if the police asked but why won't they ask?

Birch would probably pay & conduct the dig himself.

I imagine the police dont ask because theyve looked at the *evidence* from Birch and seen nothing worthy?
I mean lets face it the Pj spent thousands of man hours chasing up ridiculous leads including psychic ones, oh yes, many of which Gerry provided them with! when they were investigating...if they thought there was anything to this dont you think thry would have done something?

Is he that very different from the armchair detectives here who truly believe they know better than the legal authorities about what really happened.

Fantasists all!

Well he spent a load of his own time & money investigating, travelled all the way to Luz and got his hoover out, had contact with the Portuguese authorities and the British police.

So yes I'd say he is quite different.

And those who believe there was an abductor (or even 2) , are they not fantasists?

Agreed. I have never said there was an abductor. All I have said is that it is logically impossible to prove the falsity of abduction- it remains a possibility.

It's nice to agree for a change, I never thought it possible.

For the record I'm not a firm Birch believer, but I've read his reasoning & don't think it should be ruled out without consideration.

No he believes the PJ discovered her body & they planted her dna in the hire car to force confession from the McCanns because Murat was being framed.

We will have to agree to disagree here WS....I cant imagine the Pj and others who were scurrying around like hell trying to solve the crime dug up Madeleine out of Murats garden when was it middle may? and nicked her dna and waited to plant it in the Mccanns car that they didnt have at the time etc etc and thenwhat? Buried her again? For Birch to find it sigh with his equipment every night? Without the murats or their dogs  knowing anyone had broken in and was doing work there?

Suppose they found her later than may but didn't fully exhume on the basis that it would condemn Murat who for whatever reason they knew was innocent, so at that point they remove a sample & then place it in the car...

The problem I have with that part of the theory is Eddies alert to the hire car, unless that was cross contamination, a false alert or pork chops.

In any event I don't fully believe his theory, however until someone digs I will have my doubt as to why not.

LOL. I mean first off. How was the body buried under the driveway without anyone noticing? He said himself there was a large mound of rubble which made it impossible for the police to have used a ground penetrating radar in the Murats garden. So does that mean there was already a huge hole?

I mean just how was the body buried?

These machines are quite large usually about the size of a lawn mower, hardly easy to negotiate over a fence.

The fact he did it ILLEGALLY and admitted it on the Peoples Voice programme made me smile.

So we are to believe the rogue coppers dug up the body, used the DNA to frame the McCanns to protect Murat.

Jeez I am in the twighlight zone.

Me neither.

There was something though just after the child went missing. I found a small article that a body wrapped in plastic material was found in an underwater cavern/cave near Heulva. I was quite excited about it, and waited days for more information.

I found nothing. Not one word anywhere. It was there though really I know i never dreamt it... Probably nothing to do with the case, but it was odd it just disappeared. I had it on my laptop on bookmark but the stupid thing overtime zapped and I lost everything.

This amateur "investigator"s actions are not to my moral taste. The theory is ridiculous (for a start it ignores the obvious fact that Eddie would certainly have signalled over the spot he fabricates). The worst thing is the attack on an innocent person who has already suffered huge amounts of totally unjustified negative publicity yet shown remarkable strength in that situation. This armchair "investigator" should politely restrain himself to his armchair IMO.

There is no reason why the Murat driveway cannot be excavated.  The PJ could do it tomorrow if they wanted.  Point is there is nothing to justify such an excavation.

According to one of the links posted by WS earlier, Murat has agreed recently in theory with provisos, well, according to Birch. Not that I would take his word for anythng much. The more I listen to him and read what he has written, the more I thnk he is an utter fruitcase.

Yes i thought that myself, then thinking about it when will it end?

It never ends for Murat, and perhaps he just wants no more of it, i cant say I blame him.

I would expect there have been things going on we are not privvy too perhaps.

I cant imagine the child is buried there, i still dont understand how anyone could do that without someone noticing like Mrs Murat for example.....

No I think i would take the 5th amendment if I was Murat too. Its time to move on for him perhaps. Its just my thoughts but I really do see where your coming from.

On the other hand, if I were Robert Murat I would arrange to have it dug up under the auspices of the Portuguese police and then sue Birch for trespass etc...


If you were Murat's mother and had your house totally scrutinized in 2007, and your garden digged and georadared by a team of 20 people (some of which were certified scientists from Aveiro University), and dogs sniffing every corner of your place, would you subject yourself to a whim by a confessed transgressor that had invaded your property without asking your permission.

There are limits for a person's tolerance. Murat was fully investigated, the McCann & friends were not, it's time the batteries point to the right direction.

I agree, Luz.

And if it's not advisable to answer police questions without risk of incrimination, I certainly wouldn't invite police to dig up my driveway.

Great post again Luz. Yes I totally agree. Enough is enough for Murats.

I dont quite know where this Stephen Birch fits in or why he is doing what he is doing, but when i listened to what he had to say 30 minutes of it nearly on The Peoples Voice, he started sort of ok, then transcended.....into garbage sadly. Accusing the police of holding the body to use the DNA to stitch up the McCanns....then i thought hang on a minute what a great way of doing a bit of advertising for the McCanns again lol....DNA....PJ......STITCH UP MCCANNS with planted SCENT of the child.

Then i realised why he was given air time.... 8(>((

I hadn't considered that it's actually Jenny Murat's property (which is terrible of me really) She's not a young woman anyone. Perhaps she just desires some peace.

It does put it a different slant on it.

If police had good enough reason to believe that there was something of substance to Mr Birch's claims, they would get a warrant - irrespective of poor old Mrs Murat's feelings.

Of course Birch claims that the PJ have something to hide.

Does anyone happen to know, if SY had reason at this point to search the Murat's property - or any property in PdL - how would they go about this legally? If the PJ or residents were unhelpful for whatever reason, would there be anything they could do?

http://joana-morais.blogspot.com/2013/10/maddie-case-pj-has-already-carried-out.html

The British authorities sent a letter of request to the Portuguese for assistance, what the terms and details are I have no idea.....in any case...I doubt SY  just like the PJ would  have any good reason to dig up the Murat family garden based on the lunatics "evidence"

Besides, the cadaver dog went all over the place in 2007, his abilities in detecting a scent of death were up to a metre underground through  concrete and this joker says Madeleine is buried a few inches down...and penetrating radar equipment was used as well back then.....

I agree, Red, that SY probably have no reason to dig up Murat's property. And even if they would be tempted to do so even if only in order to rule his theory out, it would be bad PR for them to be seen to act on the whimsy of a Tom Dick or Harry coming along with a theory out of nowhere. It would make SY look weak, and could also give the impression they had nothing better to work with. So I don't think we'll see much movement on the Birch score.

The issue is broader than Birch, however, because SY could easily - and hopefully will - come up with new information or leads as part of their ongoing inquiry, that may need the assistance of PdL residents in following up. What powers would SY actually have in persuading Portuguese residents to co-operate with them if necessary? Could they arrange search warrants, for example, if the home owner objected to co-operating with them? How do these things actually work?

Not a very nice thing to do. Completely self-serving person. He complains about all the money he's spent on the case - must indeed have been a lot with his group expeditions to Portugal, two sets of lawyers, not to mention R&D for the invention of the century - but that's his problem.

When he explains at the start of this new video that the McCann case is a religious experience for him that really sums the whole thing up.

The one good thing I would say for him is that he is big enough to suggest that he might be wrong.

He does say that one of the reasons for digging up the drive is that it might result in his theory being ruled out.

But unfortunately that would spur him on, so he says, to turn his attentions to a different theory.

Sounds like he's in it for the long haul.

Good point, pegasus. There is a lack of debate on this thread.

Although it is right and good that we are all free to come up with and express our own theories and ideas, Stephen Birch, in taking the law into his own hands and trespassing onto Mrs Murat's property, has gone much further. He has impinged upon someone else's rights in order to assert his own.

There are occasions when it is necessary to go beyond the law in order to change things but this is not one of them, and that being so I don't think we're going to find many defenders of Stephen Birch.

It's way too late for that though.

I should stress I have no doubt Birch is a fraud and a Charlatan. 

But if they dig up the Murats' drive and find nothing, that will nail nothing and instead give rise to fresh speculation and fresh innuendo: when was "the body" (spit!) exhumed and moved, and where to?

Best to leave Birch to stew, I reckon.

If he did abduct this child, then the witness believes she may be dead. He concludes this from Robert’s violent and deviant personality. He adds still that he also was violent with his mother when he was reprimanded and would react by kicking her.

His "revelations" concern an area of a property close to a swimming pool, which needs pipes to drain and add  water as necessary. It wouldn't be difficult for the Murats to provide plans of the system. Was Birch able to exclude any logical explanation of any plans or work undertaken concerning the swimming pool?

If an excavation led to no body, the out clause is that it had been moved since his "revelations". He could go on for years...

4 Oct 2013

Birch apparently took scans of the ground in the property. He states that the scans show an object like a child or animal on a secluded portion of the property. Photo’s in Birch’s possession show that police never did excavations in that section at the time.

Birch has continued with an online campaign since making the allegations. It is aimed at the British and Portuguese government, and Maddie’s parents, in the hope that his findings will be investigated.

Kate McCann, Maddie’s mother then on a British TV program asked sarcastically: ”Who is Stephen Birch actually?”

“He is not a reliable source” she said.

In reaction to her statement Birch said,” If it was your child and there was a chance that she was buried there, would you not do everything possible to ensure that the findings are not true. Unless of course you have something to hide and you want nobody near the place.

Do you agree with his statements? If so, why? If not, why not?

I think the site was hacked/taken over a while back. Curiously, the person you have to email in admin is called Leanne.
There has been some pretty awful material posted there recently by those authorised , some of which was removed within 24hrs.

Why does "speech" get spelled "speach" sometimes...........like "troof" instead of "truth"?

Is it some sort of in-joke or meant as a put-down to other people?

I`ve asked before, but have never found out..........really!

You or Benice seem the most.......erm.... "approachable" sort of supporter persons, so maybe you will let me know. Thanks.

Some people who were the staunchest upholders of the concept of free speech frequently misspelled it, while at the same time berating / banning anyone who held a differing view to the one that they were defending.

It thus became a joke... as in "free speech but only for those who agree with me", which got shortened to "free speach".

Once upon a time, in another place, know only to those of us who have been at this lark for eight years now, a McCann Sceptic accidentally spelt "Speech" incorrectly.
It has now come to epitomise The Free Speach But Only For Me Brigade.  None of whom exist on here.  Obviously.

Oh right.

I must have missed the era of the spelling mistake, because I really haven`t seen it spelled wrongly, other than in supporter posts..........So now I know.

Thankyou.

No wonder an elderly lady is scared out of her wits. Not that long ago someone was apparently taking up Birch's challenge to get back into her garden to attempt to "excavate" it.

Why is Birch one of the only topics that virtually everyone agrees about on here?

Rimes, Womack, Baulch, Wood, Battersby, just any old random coincidence Leanne or maybe even Leanne from The Boy Wizard stories, what do you think?

I have walked past CL a couple of times recently and on both occasions what sounded like a particularly aggressive dog started barking even before I got to the plot.

Dogs in Portugal can be like that though, bark wildly from behind a fence, then try to lick you to death when you walk through the gate.

But I'd still go with steak stuffed with sleeping tablets, just in case.

But that's one of the things that seems so odd about his lawnmower extraordinaire intruder adventure. Where were the dogs and why weren't they howling their heads off?

Followers were told SB a few months ago was going to post part of the video which showed him confronting the dogs, but it has never materialised.

I've always wondered why the Murat dogs weren't howling their heads off when people were calling out for Madeleine. Or perhaps they did.....
