Perceptions of Madeleine's Abduction

[Eleanor]

The statements remain as part of the body of evidence, whether or not people believe they are accurate.

All useless of course.

[G-Unit]

And?  What about the memories of those who "have no reason to lie"?  Are they more reliable in your view?

They are at the very least entitled to be given as much credence as anyone else's.

[G-Unit]

All useless of course.

Yes, in your opinion of course.

[Eleanor]

Yes, in your opinion of course.

I am not alone of course.  Even The Portuguese Judiciary found it to be useless.  Along with Scotland Yard and The BKA.

[Vertigo Swirl]

Yes, in your opinion of course.

And surely in yours as they did not help secure a conviction of those you consider to be the prime suspects, and nor will they ever do so - therefore useless surely?

The Portuguese Judiciary found they didn't have enough evidence to identify the crime or to bring charges. Operation Grange chose to interpret that as meaning the arguidos were wrongly suspected and proceeded to identify the crime without relying on evidence. The BKA followed suit.

No they did not, they had information that implicated CB and worked from that point, they were never charged with investigating or eliminating the parents.

So, do you think The Met never actually reviewed the case files?  Is that your belief and upon what do you base your beliefs?

Whatever happened to Innocent Until Proven Guilty?  But one thing is for certain sure.  Your biased opinion will never convict The McCanns.

Just in case you don't realise that's your opinion and it's total  junk

I think it's absolutely laughable you believe such total junk

[G-Unit]

And surely in yours as they did not help secure a conviction of those you consider to be the prime suspects, and nor will they ever do so - therefore useless surely?

It's still evidence which has to be taken into account by those who have the intention to investigate and charge someone. Careless statements cannot be relied on; remember how Redwood's announcement of a holidaymaker returning from the night creche was quickly questioned because the holidaymaker was walking towards the creche.

[G-Unit]

So, do you think The Met never actually reviewed the case files?  Is that your belief and upon what do you base your beliefs?

I don't know what they did but saying the man seen by Jane Tanner was leaving the night creche was a rookie mistake imo. Geography didn't seem to be one of Britain's finest's strong points.

I think you should have just stopped at "I don't know" if you wanted to be strictly accurate. 

[Eleanor]

You have to vaguely admire the use of semantics from someone who almost certainly didn't know the meaning of the word until recently.

Just don't ever expect a straight answer.
