Has Martin Smith Changed his Opinion ?

Mrs Fenn offered her phone to call the police but Gerry said they had been when they hadn't. This was at 10:30. Police call was 10:41.

Gerry was under the impression that the police had already been called at that stage - and was getting anxious because they hadn't arrived.

The McCanns should have called instead of presuming it. They said we knew she had been abducted straight away but it takes 45 minutes to call the police. That doesn't add up. Deleting phone call history by the 4th doesn't either. You must think detectives are born yesterday to believe Carry On Madeleine. They should be able to rip that timeline apart by the time this case is over.

Then surely any help to get things moving would have been appreciated ?

Any particular reason you think Mrs Fenn waited 45 mins before venturing onto her balcony to investigate the mass hysteria going on underneath her apartment?

Because there was no mass hysteria apparently.  They all got back to the apartment and started planning the timeline according to Faithlilly.

Mrs Fenn heard nothing until the end of News at 10 - Kate wailing outside. She came out and asked what is all this noise and Kate and Fiona told her to get lost. She then talked to Gerry and he said a little girl had been abducted. She offered her phone to call the police and he said it was done.

What - no fighting over the crayons?

Or running about like headless chickens asking for the police to be called, a claim there is no evidence for. Perhaps if you concentrated on finding evidence for Kate's claims rather than picking holes in mine you may actually get somewhere.

I'm not interested in getting anywhere in particular, picking holes in your daft statements is sufficient diversion for me today thanks.

Are you saying that she didn't hear a rumpus outside until she'd finished watching the News at 10?

Isn't hindsight a wonderful thing?   

The very detectives whom you yourself state weren't born yesterday don't have a problem with the timelines.   That should tell you something.   Unless of course you believe there is a huge conspiratorial  bluff in progress and the PJ/ SY are suddenly going to pounce on the McCanns and arrest them.   If so - don't hold your breath.

What are they waiting for then?

So when do you start ?

So when do you start ?

According to your last post I had already started.  I have also started a whole new thread to pick holes in your daft statement, and so far not a peep from you to defend your claim that there was no frantic activity from the Tapas group after the alarm was raised as they were all huddled together writing out the timeline.
