Has Martin Smith Changed his Opinion ?

[mercury]

So you don't think Martin Smith (or his wife) might have spoken out since if that had happened?

And (assuming that speculation to be right) you don't find it odd that Mrs Smith is on record (since release of the files) as saying that they are full-square behind the McCanns?

Who are you addressing?
And stop misquoting witnesses in this case

The smiths have never said they are full square behnd the mccanns....you just chose to nterpret the odd  sound bite as somethng convenient imo

So you agree that Martin Smith has changed his mind?

That's good ....

If that post is addressed to me then your assumption is incorrect.
 
My opinion is that your analysis of the situation is incorrect and founded on an erroneous  assumption.

So let's have once and for all a direct statement from Mr. Smith's last one , clear cut, undeniable and VERIFIED.

Some folk may wish to cling tenaciously to the opinion that Martin Smith and his wife (on record since the first enquiry was shelved as saying that the Smiths stand solidly set to support the McCanns in their quest to establish the truth of what happened to Madeleine) are now at loggerheads (with Mary of the view that they did not see Madeleine; her husband -- still -- of the view that they did).

But that, frankly, is plain silly.

As is the notion that Martin Smith (or his wife, Mary) would (either) have produced efits of a man they thought was Gerry.

There can be no doubt.

Martin has changed his opinion ...

Martin Smiths latest word on the subject, October 2013;

 “The only new thing in the investigation is the elimination of Jane Tanner’s sighting.

“Apart from that from our point of view everything else remains the same in relation to what we said to the police and the media at the time. We have nothing more to add.”

If Martin Smith (and his wife) produced the efits before commencement of the second investigation, then the efits are not new; and neither (to the second investigation) Martin Smith's change of mind (that he did not, after all, see Gerry).

Martin Smith had (by then) already formulated his (revised) opinion.

So it was not new.

Martin has changed his opinion ...

Yet you cannot produce any proof at all.

Martin Smith produced an efit of a man he clearly no longer believed was Gerry.

What more proof do you need?

What more proof do you need?

How do you know what he thinks ?

[ferryman]

How do you know what he thinks ?

Plain common sense decrees that Martin Smith would not produce an efit of a man he thought was Gerry; neither his wife, Mary ....

[ferryman]

How do you know what he thinks ?

The efit.

He produced one.

Simple as that.

[stephen25000]

The efit.

He produced one.

Simple as that.

Now where has he stated he changed his mind ?

Let's not remember either, people working on behalf of the mccanns interred with a possible witness to a crime.
