“A Laughable Story”

[John]

If my car is parked outside my house last thing at night and its gone in the morning is there any evidence of theft.

Not necessarily, maybe another member of the family took it.

[John]

No you are in denial, and in the thrall of the dogs.  How come you believe the tracker dogs but dismiss the cadaver dogs?  Icidentally how do the tracker dogs prove that Madeleine was not abducted from the apartment?

     ...could it be that the tracker dogs were used hours after the child disappeared whereas the cadaver dogs weren't brought in until weeks later. I know which ones I would trust completely.

If Madeleine had been carried out of the apartment the dogs would not have found her ground scent. As it was she walked out barefoot and they found her scent with no trouble whatsoever.

[Mr Gray]

I think you will find that the police are exploring all options.

I dont see any evidence that any police force is looking at the McCanns. what we do know is taht HCW says he has evidence the his supect...christian b...murdered Maddie. that's pretty definite. the germans have very strict privacy laws...I doubt he would say that unless he had that evidence

[John]

Easy - The PJ and of being fitted up.  Next question?

Sorry, but that's just a pathetic excuse.  Kate McCanns refusal to cooperate will haunt her forever, little wonder the Portuguese detective asked if she understood that by refusing to answer their questions she was impeding the investigation into her daughters disappearance to which she replied in the affirmative. Unbelievable imo!

It's their job to look at every possibility.

I have to say that I see no evidence that any police force is investigating Madeleines parents.
Do you have any evidence that they are indeed doing so?

[Mr Gray]

Do you really think after 13 years they are still looking at the McCanns. Despite what the SC said I think the Mccans were ruled out years  ago

But if only the police would just tell us how the McCanns have been ruled out.

[Mr Gray]

perhaps someone could remind us what the SC said...wasn't it that the McCanns were not ruled out by the archiving report....not that they were not ruled out...theres a difference...a big difference

how do you explain the PT prosecutors conclusion then?

“At 08.00 the GNR Search and Rescue sniffer dog team came into action, searches were begun from the resort in the direction of the beach, covering a 2 km area; in Praia da Luz 300m radius searches were made as well searches of abandoned houses, wells and waste land, the radius subsequently being expanded to 600m including the verges of the EN 125 motorway.

Subsequently an attempt was made to reconstruct the route taken by Madeleine by giving the dogs a blanket/towel used by her, but the results were not significant, given that the dogs are more trained for use in rural areas rather than urban or populated areas, the existence of more odours in the air making it impossible for the tracker dog to identify/locate the “target smell”.

Not all abducted children are carried anyway.  She could have been taken from the Apartment and made to walk to the car.

I think your post is pathetic.    Kate McCann’ “refusal to co-operate” (a statement  in itself which is ballcocks) made absolutely no difference to the investigation as claiming to being innocent none of those questions would, if answered, have helped the police find Madeleine’s abductor, so how on earth would she be haunted by her refusal?  Makes no sense whatsoever.

[Mr Gray]

Kate did co operate. Posters want to ignore that the reason amaral and his team were so convinced of Kates guilt was they didnt understand the evidence. The only way kate could have helped them is if she had beat herself up...knelt on some glass ashtrays...put a bag over her head and confessed

I disgaree, John.

She was the arguida under questioning therefore the investigation being carried out was into her as the accused.  She had already been interrogated for ... was it sixteen hours? and she answered many of the questions asked when she had been made a suspect in Madeleine's disappearance by intimating that she couldn't answer any more than she already had.  So she had already answered all the questions they put to her.

In my opinion the Portuguese detective questioning her regarding the dogs didn't know what he was talking about and Kate was absolutely correct in following her lawyer's advice to keep her mouth shut.

Conversely Gerry did not heed the same advice and answered every question he was asked.  But when he asked to  have sight of the paperwork being waved under his nose allegedly detailing the dog evidence against him and Kate, that was refused.
What a farce!

I agree, Brietta. If this scenario played out in my country, under no circumstance would I cooperate with police who clearly had their own preconceived resolution.

Sixteen hours of interrogation? I make 3pm to 11pm eight hours.(https://www.mccannpjfiles.co.uk/PJ/KATE-MCCANN_ARGUIDO.htm)

 There were 2.5 hours of breaks, too, (madeleine)so she was actually interviewed for five and a half hours.
Why the need to exaggerate?
