It has never been explained why Julian Totman was walking the wrong way?

[Brietta]

well it is my business, and we talk about him here.  It is our business.  Well some investigative journalist could do it on our behalf.
He is not on Facebook as Julian Totman.  Hang on something came up when I entered "Julian Tottman"

Dr Totman is not going to jeopardise an active police investigation by handing out information to any Tom, Dick or Harry.  He would be wrong to do so and it would be wrong for anyone to ask him to do so.

Someone leaked his identity.

Apparently.

So are you of the opinion that the PJ are doing nothing at all?  Interesting way to conduct an investigation.  As for the rest of your comment - you have no idea what leads or what suspects they are pursuing so please don't pretend you do, kindly forgive my impertinence.

Is there an investigation in Portugal?  I would hazard a guess that there isn't.

As to what SY are actually doing to try and find Madeleine, I suspect very little.

I would agre that thee is no investigation in portugal and their decision to reopen the case was a face saving exercise...what are SY doing....I think everything possible

His name was in the files ~ it wouldn't have taken long for a little digging by an investigative journalist to put two and two together ~ Paulo Reis was almost there in 2009 but like everyone else, his focus was directed elsewhere perhaps sacrificing the 'scoop' of his career  http://miscarriageofjustice.co/index.php?topic=9475.msg460688#msg460688  no need for 'leaks'.

We have been told only what the Met have permitted the media to print. It would have been an easy question for the journalist who spoke to Mrs Totman to confirm the route her husband took back from the creche & why he thought Tannerman could be him. The journalist either didn't ask or Mrs Totman was not forthcoming with the information. IMO.

There are lots of names in the files.

He was not named for how long after Crimewatch 2013?

Reis named him in 2009.

[ShiningInLuz]

Reis named him in 2009.

That naming had nothing to do with Tannerman.

His wife certainly appears willing to speak.

you have to be really up in the case to realise he was walking in the wrong direction according to Jane's account.

[Robittybob1]

Reis named him in 2009.

What did he say about Totman?  Can you recall?

[Brietta]

Nothing much ... he was far more interested in another couple friends of his I think.  I posted a link to it fairly recently.

Amazingly I've hit on it again, usually never happens when you are looking for a particular link

I didn't say that Reis had made the connection.  In fact he barely mentioned him.  But he did name him in 2009 and with just a little digging the initial investigation could have found him too way back in May 2007 to be exact.

The initial investigation could have found everybody booked into the OC.  They had the booking sheets.

Is there any relevance to this?
