Yes very strange that Red. We are told that Eddie and Keela could detect the tiniest minutest traces of blood and cadaverscent from as far back as the 1960's in Keela's case and IIRC over a hundred years ago in Eddie's case. - in fact traces so small that even the FSS couldn't detect them (e.g. the curtains in 5A) and so why no alerts anywhere else? Are we to believe that in all those other apartments, Murats home and garden, the beach, the cliffs and everywhere else that Eddie searched in PdL that not a soul had ever spilt a single drop of blood in any of those places in the last 60 years - or that no-one had died etc.?? Surely that can't be so.
Have you any thoughts on this Red?
BTW personally I do believe Grime's claims about the abilities of his dogs.
I dont think Eddie is used to find microscopic bits of blood, Keela is, but only when directed *after Eddie the cadaver dog alerts anywhere*. So, no, its not a fact that no blood was ever spilled anywhere over the years.
All I was saying is that I disagree with the theory/suggestions put forward that Eddie was always alerting to blood, and that if Keela reacts in the same spot it must have been blood. And as we know, she did not react to blood on several occasions after Eddie made his alerts. Logic dictates this. Eddie was alerting to something else, and to something the scent of which remains after months, that rules out semen, urine, faeces, bad breath,etc, datewise plus also logicwise, as why would 5a be such an unhygienic place over others?
It is possible as Mr Grime said it could be contamination from other sources, but you must agree it must have been so very unlucky to have just occurred there.
This discussion is indeed a groundhog day one, perhaps we should all get off the merrygoround. Cos lets face it, those that think there is no way on this earth Eddies alerts could mean Madeleine dead and must be something else are no different to those saying it does or could mean Madeleine dead, there is no difference between the two,apart from one faction not admitting it could be a possibility, onlyfact is no one knows, so both options are on the table, so pointless arguing about possibilities and impossibilities or pretending to know better than/libelling a dog handler, (including saint kate) who had no reason to lie and didnt as this would come back to bite him andmake him look stupid if he did
