You have no idea who might have provided the McCanns? detectives with the descriptions for the e-fits? What no idea at all? Amazing. Good to know however that you set no store in them, me neither as they were done 16 months after the event. If SY chose to feature them in Crimewatch I would suggest it?s because they existed and felt putting them up was better than nothing, use every scrap of information available but one can understand why the M Canns set no store in them either.
Tanner was 100% vindicated. She described Julian Totman incredibly accurately, so how do you account for that then?
As for your ongoing fixation with the Madeleine website, apart from the odd message from the McCanns appearing on Birthdays and Christmas it obviously hasn?t been updated for many, many years.
There was nothing unusual or remarkable about the way Gerry was carrying his child so it is fair to say that any male of average build with short dark hair carrying a small child in the same way would have looked very similar. I would suggest that Smith was heavily influenced by the fact that at the time Gerry was an arguido and the media was full of the most egregious nonsense about the McCanns, hence his sudden moment of semi-clarity (60-80% is still far from certain). Remember, this is one of the exact same reasons you cite for Luke Mitchell not getting a fair trial, because of media influence on so-called witnesses.
It?s interesting that you place the parent?s judgement above the police regarding the efits. That does explain rather a lot.
Tanner may have described Totman relatively accurately ie carrying a child, possibly in pyjamas but that doesn?t put the sighting when she claimed, that?s why she hasn?t been vindicated. Wilkins, who was allegedly having a chat with Gerry at the time of the sighting, didn?t see Tanner. TBF I think you need to hae visited the actual location of the sighting to know how impossible that would have been. Further it was the triangulation of information from statements that convinced the police that the man Tanner saw was Totman not his physical description. Tanner more than likely did see Totman and Gerry did have a chat with Wilkins however those events did not happen simultaneously.
Don?t you think that if your daughter was missing and you, as the parents seem to, believed that she may be alive you?d update your website every now and again? Daniel Morecombe?s parent?s did even during the police investigation and in fact set up a foundation in his name to keep his image at the forefront of people?s minds, a foundation that now teaches children about safety.
I would suggest that you are wrong and that it was Gerry?s posture and mannerisms that triggered Mr Smith?s memory and that could have only happened at that one point in time.
