Apparently it is such dynamite it still hasn't been released to the public. What is surprising however is that Gonçalo's lawyers haven't got hold of it, a report stating that Madeleine was in all probability not abducted but met with an accident would surely do wonders for his cause.
I'm not sure whether to take that at face value or not... :)
Having analysed hundreds of media pieces over time (particularly the tabloids) and, where possible, compared them to what would appear to be facts and realistic context, I've noticed that there is often a grain of truth buried somewhere in a mishmash of misinformation (deliberate or otherwise), misunderstandings, sometimes personal grievances, translation issues and whatever else, the whole presented via a sensationalistic filter in order to make a quick buck.
The difficulty is finding that grain of truth and sorting it from the chaff when the full story isn't available to cross-check.
I used to find The Sunday Times reliable many years ago, but for some time (and this predates the McCann saga) I've come across numerous articles that simply don't appear to be of the same quality.
The nugget of truth in this instance is that the e-fits weren't released until the Crimewatch appeal, which anyone who has followed this case already knew.
We, the public, do not know all of the facts, nor the context, of why those e-fits weren't released earlier, either by the McCanns or by the police.
We can all make what we feel to be reasoned guesses, but the fact is that we simply don't have all of the facts, nor any information as to the context of the situation.
