The Quality of Witnesses in the Case.

[Alfred R Jones]

Kate raised the alarm at 9:54/55.

Then why are you choosing me to debate with and not Faithlilly who has a very different theory to yours about this aspect of the case?

[Alfred R Jones]

They were asked whether Gerry was at the table at the time of the alarm so no I don't think they were lying.

And how many of them said the time was 10.13pm?

Exactly Gerry was at the table when the alarm was raised but 10:03-13 will be another revelation moment to SY.

I think the consensus was around ten.

[Alfred R Jones]

I think the consensus was around ten.

So all seven were wrong and Gerry, who could have cemented his alibi for the Smith sighting by simply agreeing with them decided to dice with death and give a much later time because...?

[Mr Gray]

There were three posters on here yesterday who were convinced I had said I knew Fiona Payne...all three were wrong...witness statements can be unreliable

All three were right.

Your denials merely revealed exactly what you are, and what value any of your posts have.

19.13 is 'around 10'.

[Alfred R Jones]

19.13 is 'around 10'.

To you it probably is, but to me its around quarter past seven in the evening...

[Alfred R Jones]

19.13 is 'around 10'.

Assuming you meant 22.13 (24 hour clock not being one of your stronger points) it still makes no sense at all for Gerry not to agree with the others that the alarm was raised at 10pm the time he allegedly knew he was seen by the Smiths.  Wriggle your way out of that one, dearest Lil.

My you are tetchy today Alfie ! Did you run out of coco pops ?

Anyhoooo back to the subject in hand. It makes no sense for Gerry to say he was on the other side of the road during he and Jez's chat when he knew Jez and Tanner would say differently but he still did it.

So you agree it makes no sense for Gerry to destroy his alibi, oh well that's progress of sorts I suppose.

His alibi for the Smith sighting was Tannerman.

Perhaps that's why they are still pushing him on their campaign pages and not Smithman.

It's all very simple. Tannerman was made out to be Smithman in the book to rule Gerry out. Tannerman is still on their website and Smithman isn't - efits that were hidden by the McCanns. Everything connects to Smithman! And he gave the time away. Hook, line and sinker.

So you keep saying however that STILL doesn't explain why he wouldn't agree with the rest of the group that the alarm was raised at 10pm thus giving him a cast-iron alibi, instead of a whole 15 minutes in which to be allegedly disposing of a body.  Give me one good reason why he would choose this of all things to tell the truth about.  I await your answer with great interest.
