Kate McCann: I believe kidnapper drugged my twins night Madeleine was taken.

Is it acceptable to quote words which were never said? I thought you were a stickler for accuracy Alfie?

Which words in Davel's quote were never said?

I an reminded of Eric Morecambe playing all the right notes but not necessarily in the right order.

OK, well can you please tell me in what ways Davel's signature line veers dramatically from what Redwood actually said then.

[Alfie]

The Guardian's Sandra Laville wrote:

Dismissing conspiracy theories about Madeleine's parents' involvement, Redwood said he believed the girl's disappearance was the result of "a criminal act by a stranger".

Why, if this is not what Andy Redwood said did sh come to this conclusion?  Is she stupid, deaf or in the pay of the McCanns?

[Alfie]

The Telegraph article reported it thus:


12:26PM BST 25 Apr 2012
Detective Chief Inspector Andy Redwood said he believes her disappearance was a stranger abduction, as he said there are 195 "investigative opportunities".

So - hard of hearing, stupid or in the pay of the McCanns at the Telegraph then?

[Alfie]

Sky News kicked off their article with

"Police investigating the disappearance of Madeleine McCann say their review of the case suggests it was a premeditated abduction".

Deaf, dumb or being paid off by the Evils?

[Alfie]

In the Channel Four article on the subject they say:

"Speaking just days before the fifth anniversary of Madeleine’s disappearance, Det Chief Insp Redwood said he believed she had been abducted by a stranger".

Are they, like Davel and me, playing the right notes but just not in the right order?  How could so many news agencies get it so wrong?

Are you a detective in the hunt for Madeleine?   NO

Off topic anyway.

You know I'm right, but you will never admit it.

I was pointing out that davel seems to have got it wrong;

''based on the evidence...we believe Madeleine McCann was removed from the apartment by a stranger....DCI Redwood...Scotland Yard''

Perhaps it's time he replaced it with something accurate.

Are you suggesting my quote is not verbatim and therefore not accurate
Surely not
How would it be if it was then twice translated

[Alfie]

If anyone can find me a different interpretation of Andy Redwood's words, one in which he is reported by the MSM as saying stranger abduction is just one theory that they are looking at then by all means post it here.

I have seen all the interpretations of Redwood's words, but interpretatons are...interpretations. This is what he actually said;

Redwood: Yes, I mean, you know, we have conducted a forensic analysis of the timeline, and there is clearly opportunity there - for Madeleine McCann to have been removed from that apartment alive - and it is our belief, as experienced investigators - on the evidence, that, um that you know, that that, that is as a criminal act - and that has been, you know, undertaken by by a stranger,

This is davel's interpretation;

as experienced investigators...based on the evidence...we believe Madeleine McCann was removed from the apartment by a stranger....DCI Redwood...Scotland Yard -[davel]

It would be interesting to see the actual words used by the McCanns on their interviews rather than the interpretation of the interpreters
Double standards from you

which is also the interpretation of most newspapers that reported Redwood's announcement.  Funny that!

You are not able to demonstrate that Redwood used the words quoted in your sig line because he clearly didn't. No standards from you.

Guys, I think we have wandered far off topic. Can we get back to it?
