Is there any hard evidence whatsoever in the Madeleine McCann case?

[Alfred R Jones]

Alfred - in the documentary by Channel 5, Jane Tanner was revealed to have ID'd a market trader.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLAqiisgBBY 21:00 here.  "That is the guy that I saw carrying the child."

You seem a little riled.  You may wish to withdraw your "shame" comment.

Nope, I'm not riled and I do not wish to withdraw anything.  JT's recall of the man she saw carrying a child matched closely the description of the man subsequently ID'ed by the Met as a tourist.  I'd say that her recall was pretty accurate in fact.  You think what you like. 

Incidentally the mysteriously missing e-fits that the McCanns are allegedly so afraid of were shared over 30,000 times when they appeared numerous times on the Find Madeleine FB page!

No she didn't ... he said ~ she was then presented with a photograph of this guy George in the market place at which point she broke down and said that is ....

Seems Alfred's comment stands.

OG had not read all the files when Redwood made his statement.

We were talking about David Canter's view not Andy Redwood's!  Read back.

Perhaps tannerman and Smithman are the same person?and they don't need to update the site.. JT identified a pair of childs feet,from that she later identified Maddies jammies...she seemed to remember more as time went on...and her chats with the McCanns

[Alfred R Jones]

Actually I made a mistake.  The Smithman e-fits have appeared on 7 separate occasions on the find Madeleine FB page and have been shared 74521 times.

But unfortunately Brietta, your comments about the McCanns being in the loop does not unfortunately as the PJ do not operate in such a manner. Not sure Alfred's comments stand to be honest as we would have to disbelieve Mr Harvey.

Apologies, doing two things at once.

When the programme was made David Canter had not read any of the files and was basing his opinion on, we can only assume, those 'damn Portuguese leaks'. Not terribly scientific I'm sure you'll agree.

And exactly the same can be said for the Barclay geezer whose views seem to be held in much greater store by some here!

Were they placed there by the McCanns, or by others? I have to ask as I don't do Facebook so can't try and find it.

[Alfred R Jones]

If I was shown a blue triangle for 5 seconds, and then a little later, I was asked to recall that blue triangle, yet I identified it is a green triangle, would you state my recall as good?

eh?  What has that got to do with JT's statement?  Are you saying her recall was faulty according to the Met?

All posted by the Find Madeleine page.

Unfortunately Brietta, the Policia Judiciaria do not release information in that way.  It is how they work, you see.

Oh really.

[Alfred R Jones]

The efits can be 'pinned' on the page so they are there permanently to be seen by anyone who visits.

Tell me Alfie what do you think is more important, some rousing quote about hope or the efits of the man who may have taken Madeleine ?

You like to speculate that the McCanns are deeply unsettled by the Smithman e-fits and have taken every opportunity to hide them and / or ignore them and are in conflict with the Met (despite some evidence to the contrary).  Well, allow me to speculate for a moment if you would be so kind...?  Following the widely disseminated Smithman e-fits in October 2013, the Met (for reasons best known to themselves) requested that emphasis on these e-fits be reduced or played down.  Is this inconceivable?  If so why?

[Alfred R Jones]

Absolutely.

So we're agreed. When experts are not aware of all the facts their opinions should carry no weight.

If you say so.
