I have read the cite and like many other ignored witnesses, such as the young women whose bedrooms had been invaded by a paedophile while they holidayed in Luz as children - no-one had ever heard about them until 2013.
No-one had ever heard about Dr Totman until 2013. So you are making up a scenario to suit whatever whim takes your fancy. And all in the name of on this occasion getting a dig in at Scotland Yard.
The failure here was a Judicial Police one. Your cite explains that although Dr Totman "presented himself" no-one bothered to get back to him - so no interview there to "account for him".
DCI Redwood's information leading to Dr Totman came from the creche records and not from a witness statement or an intelligence report ruling him out.
I thought you might have offered an apology for making up stuff I never said. That's not goading btw. I genuinely thought you might, on reflection, recognise when you've alleged I have said things that I actually have not.
Why would the PJ have to get back in touch with Dr Totman? They have no need to. They realise that he isn't the abductor
because Dr Totman has told them himself and he is of no relevance to the missing child. The PJ moved on. IMO it's fanciful to believe that UK Police were not aware that Dr Totman came forward in 2007. The PJ were also aware of the night creche records and they were talking to Police in the UK.
Cite for "no-one had heard of Dr Totman before 2013" please? He played tennis with Gerry. He told the PJ he believed he was Tannerman and the PJ don't spend time chasing this up as Dr Totman is not the abductor imo.
