You mean he might have been arrested under false pretences - in that he's not who he says he is?  Cunning defence

He can't change his prints or DNA, but you can see from the article above that he fled to Portugal using Rex Smith's passport. Roderick MacDonald, born 1938 in Aldershot, is alive & kicking in California and not the paedophile in the news. There was no Roderick Robinson or McDonald born 1938 in Aldershot.
Question is - how did this little matter escape the attention of the UK police?

Either you are wrong or the cops are wrong.

Perhaps it suits them to have this guy publicly identified, atm, as Roderick Robinson, aka MacDonald ?
Maybe we shall learn exactly who he is later?

Very well sluethed btw. Misty.



Btw, I was abroad when the news came out about RR and my access to computers was very limited, but I swear that I read in some article that SY now had the DNA of their main suspect.

Did anyone else see this?

Mind you he looks good for his age...76, perhaps he was born a bit later. Either way he had nothing to do with the McCann child he wasnt even in Portugal in 2007.

You mean apart from the Roderick MacDonald born in Aldershot in September 1938 to a woman whose maiden name was Kiomall? Aldershot registration district volume 2c page 315

Read Joana Morais page

Several questions come to mind, the most obvious being, was Roderick Robinson in the Algarve in May 2007 after being on the run for a decade or more, depending on the publication?

The surprising answer is a clear “NO” and it can be substantiated by a credible and official source, the 2009-2010 Annual Review of the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre (CEOP) or in a press release by the same Entity published on the 8th June 2010.

The transcription below (page 29) is quite clear in establishing that Mr Roderick Robinson was NOT in the Algarve in 2007:

“A 72 year-old British man, Roderick Robinson, arrived in Australia on Sunday 6 June 2010 following his extradition from Portugal. He had been on the run since 2001 for alleged sexual offences against a child in Australia. He was tracked down and arrested in Portugal as a direct result of the activities of CEOP’s Overseas Tracker Team.

Robinson was first arrested in 2001 in Australia for the alleged assault of a young girl and was bailed pending court hearings. He failed to appear to answer the charges in 2001.

Fleeing Australia, he entered New Zealand where he was arrested for child sexual offences allegedly committed there. He was granted bail with the requirement he surrender his passport.

In November 2009 using a stolen passport, Robinson left New Zealand bound for the UK. Piecing together intelligence on his transient movements in the UK, CEOP investigators worked with local police and the UK Borders Agency and located him in Portugal.


The Overseas Tracker Team disseminated intelligence on Robinson to Portugal, via INTERPOL, to advise them of the threat he posed to children in their country.

In response to Australia’s request for Robinson’s urgent provisional arrest, Portuguese police arrested Robinson in March 2010 and he was extradited to New South Wales, Australia to face justice.”

According to CEOP he left Australia to New Zealand and was there until 2009 where he stole a passport.

He went to Portugal and was finally arrested on March 2010. So he was never in Portugal in 2007.

Then check the marriage records & see who he married. I'm sure you can work from there, and then look on F/B.

Your post says there was no RM born in Aldershot in 1938 does it not? Well there was!

Does anyone know anything about the white haired man Stephen Carpenter talked about in his rogatory interview?
"All I'm going to say is that we've conducted a very serious investigation and there's no indication that Madeleine McCann's parents are connected to her disappearance. On the other hand, we have a lot of evidence pointing out that Christian killed her," Wolter told the "Friday at 9"....

It seems to me that where people have more than one name, are using other peoples passports and using 'borrowed' names, it must be very difficult to know exactly who the Police were dealing with in these Countries

He sounds a very slippery person.


Could it be a case of

"Step forward the real Roderick Robinson?"

Offline Alice Purjorick

Who he is was or may have been is only relevant if we choose to believe Madeleine McCann was kidnapped by a paedophile ring with which the mystery man was connected.
As we have no evidence the child was kidnapped the rest is pure speculation.

Plenty of pointers, Alice.

Perhaps the strongest one now, is that SY seem to believe it


I am happy to trust them

I also have my own set of pointers which I am unable to share.  Soz.

I believe Madeleine was abducted.  I also think it likely that both Madeleine and Joana are still alive
