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

[Alfie]

In on what, Alfie?

IT.  The cover up.  See Jassi's suggestion.  I was of course not being serious, but perhaps Jassi was?  What's your view on the matter?  We're on 'mountains from molehills' territory again in my view....

BUMPED.

Mmm, good points Rob   £5%4%  Now who would be responsible for these omissions ?

Food for thought.

See the previous post to yours.

Perhaps you could make a guess as to why Prior didn't want to ask the liaison officers the original questions?

That's the question I asked you.  Why is it when I ask you or Faithlilly a question, you both turn it straight back on me unanswered?

Well, if you can't make a guess yourself why should we help you out?

It is courteous when asked a question to answer it first and then ask your own question.  Why should I answer your questions when you don't answer mine first?

The difficulty I am having with it is that when members make a statement as if they are in 'the know' regarding the content, then refuse to elaborate when asked politely about it ... why make a statement or ask a question to a provided link which then appears to be innuendo as apparently it cannot be substantiated?

A good game, but a practice which is becoming more and more prevalent on the threads and in my opinion has the effect of disrupting the flow of information and discussion on the threads.

I am an adult.  Putting people on ignore is for children IMO

Tempting tho it is.

So you are saying that Stuart Prior stuck a post-it over the pertinent words before photocopying it, are you ?   

Was he trying to deceive everyone, do you think?



Ooo-err, I think not.

Who stuck the post-it over the pertinent words, which indicated that The Mccanns wanted the twins tested for sedation?

Read the post.

Stop beating around the bush and answer it. 

Who hid the pertinent words with a post-it sticker ?

Seek and you will find. It seems the questions for the liaison officers were officially changed at the request of  Stuart Prior of Leicestershire Police;

The public Prosecutor of the Portimao jurisdiction in Portugal, requests to the competent judicial authorities in the United Kingsom in complement with the Letter of Request despatched under official 3704438 dated of the 23/01/2008 to omit and replace the questions formulated under point XIV (only in replacement of part (N| 7) where it inquired "Can you point out any incident with Kate or Gerald McCann?", XVI and XXII with the new wording, due to formal imperatives and main request of the responsible for the accomplishment of the Letters of Request, Mr Stuart Prior, which the translation refers to.

Point XIV - remove the question n| 7, replacing it by the following: "Was there anything said or done by Kate or Gerald McCann in your presence or during any contact with them that raised any suspicion that they had any knowledge of what happened to Madeleine, other than of the circumstances described to the Portuguese investigators?"

Maybe both sides are regretting not having proceeding with testing the twins, but neither side wants to appear responsible for this omission, for it is clear that the McCanns asked for it but no one ever did it.
I get the feeling the Liaison team did not pass on the request from the McCanns.
I get the feeling it may have been hinted at to the PJ but they didn't take the initiative.
The PJ put the blame back on the McCanns by saying Kate asked for tests when she knew the results would be negative.
It clearly wasn't up to the McCanns to run the investigation though. 

Was it simply to just too politically insensitive to take blood tests from the twins for it would have shown too much emphasis that the McCanns maybe involved at that stage?   
That argument, if that was the reason, seems wrong for a result would not tell us who used or administered these possible substances.

Who did  the cover up?  It appears both the PJ and the British Liaison team have been involved in the cover-up.

The non translation - was that the McCanns?  Can't be since there are more than one lot doing the translations. How did everyone miss translating that document?   It is a mystery alright.
