A T-Shirt, underwear or a pair of comfy shoes? Yes - I'd take all those on holiday.

Well that is you, strange to say the least.

you would take work clothes,as you posted below. Well hopefully you will have washed them first.

stand in decomposing flesh or bodily fluids on an OR floor?

It is interesting to note that one of the previous occupants of 5a was a Surgical Assistant.

Work shoes & trouser bottoms can become contaminated in a hospital theatre.

Did you notice the translation error in that statement "As far as I recall, the living woman sofa"  rather than "As far as I recall, the living room sofa" http://www.mccannpjfiles.co.uk/PJ/JUNE-HUGHES.htm

Ha, no I didn't. I was more interested in her occupation & the date the statement was taken than the accuracy of the translation. Having browsed through some old threads in search of a particular photo (which I still couldn't find),  the matter of how the McCann clothes on the wardrobe shelf could have been contaminated made me think about it again. It's quite clear from the statement date that Amaral could not have given JH's occupation due consideration in a possible cross-contamination.

Now I understand you.  You are thinking JH's clothes could have carried cadaver contamination on them.

"o sofa da sala" on the Portuguese statement. ENGLISH TRANSLATION BY INES so his/her mistake.

Precisely so.

How many other mistakes are attributable to translators anxious to publish the files on the internet?

Who said it was a scrub outfit? Can you take a contaminated item of clothing off without transferring anything to what's being worn underneath? Is it possible to unwittingly stand in decomposing flesh or bodily fluids on an OR floor?

I think she was a surgical assistant not an undertakers assistant. What about the development interval we are always told about?

If you remove bits of people on the operating table, the bits you remove effectively become bits of dead body.    Can we know for sure that this person or their personal effects were never exposed to materials that could have contaminated the apartment with cadaver scent?

Are you suggesting those bits have been dead for a couple of hours?

I'm not suggesting anything - I asked a question.  Some operations last 8 hours.  Think about it.

Is this the Alfie OR as abattoir theory?

Rather than taking the piss, perhaps you can explain why it would have been impossible for someone who is a surgical assistant to have contaminated the apartment with cadaver odour.

So many possibilities have been dredged up to explain Eddie's alerts. Of course each one also suggests his alerts were not false. Instead the idea is that he alerted correctly, but it was to something other than a body in 5A on 3rd May 2007. Ten out of ten for effort, but most of the suggestions are pretty unbelievable.

Yes it's pretty unbelievable that Madeleine McCann lay dead in the apartment for 2 hours prior to 10pm because that means her parents went out to dinner and for a merry time in the full knowledge that their child was dead and allowed their friends to go check on their kids whilst they were at dinner, yet you seem to think this is plausible.
