How likely is it that Jane Tanner and the Smiths saw the 'same' man ?

[Cariad]

Does dressing Amelie in Madeleine's clothes so soon after she had gone missing not seem rather callous to anyone ?

I dunno. If they had enough clothes for a week and suddenly they find themselves there for longer, plus I imagine that keeping on top of the washing wasn't high on there list of priorities.

I could imagine myself doing this. That's usually how I try to work with this case.

I would agree, but they did have on-site family support almost from day 1 who could have, and probably did, look after that sort of thing.

I am still not sure that Jane Tanner did not see an abductor, or that The Smiths saw the same man.  Madeleine could have been handed to another abductor somewhere along the way.  This might account for the small time delay.

This does not mean that Scotland Yard are wrong about a holiday maker carrying his child.  Scotland Yard made no specific statement about this.  Only that it may have been.

Now, I've never thought of it in terms of a relay race - what would be the point?

What would be the point of having more than one person involved in carrying. It only seems to complicate the issue without adding any benefit.

'As the family waited fearfully for news, they faced the agonising reality of trying to explain to their toddler twins why their big sister was no longer there.

"That was terrible for them," says John McCann, Mr McCann's elder brother, who has also travelled to Portugal to help search for his niece.

"Kate dressed Amelie in her sister's pyjamas and the baby said: 'Maddy's jammies. Where is Maddy?' But she is too young to understand. And how do you explain? All we know is that Madeleine needs her family. She loves us, we love her. It is time for her to come home."'(Sydney Morning Herald, 15 May, 2007).


'Kate dressed Amelie in her sister's pyjamas.'

Now thats magic.

I thought Amelie had the same pyjama's as Madeleine?   The one's with Eeyore on them?

Can't her dressing Amelie in Madeleine's pyjama's,   Madeleine was almost four.

There is no reason for why this could not have happened.  If either of them were seen, which they were, then it would have complicated  witness statements, which it did.

It certainly did - but not necessarily by changing carriers part way through. Nor is it clear who was doing the confusing.

the abductor/s obviously doing the confusing ..and knew what they were doing imo 

I have a incline that the pj and sy aren't giving out what they are really doing  ...I think I know what they up to ...its just a thought and has only just come to me this morning ... >@@(*&)

I think that you are right.  The present suspect is hardly going to do a runner.  Meanwhile, look here, don't look there.
