Evidence against - 7 out of 9 Smiths disagreeing with the Old Fella and his wife that it was Gerry. The 4 months it took them to arrive at the very belated idea that it might have been Gerry, even though they never even saw the man?s face properly. The majority of the Tapas evidence putting Gerry at the table at the time of the Smiths sighting (given as 9.55-10pm).
What if, VS. Now bare with me because this is a bit out there totally out of the box thinking, but, bearing in mind everything discussed today..
Evidence of alarm before 10pm.
Tapas group time estimates merely estimates & open to error.
Gerry suggesting they split up & search to see if she just wandered off, despite him knowing her only means of escape was via the window. (He & Kate admitted on RTE they knew
immediately it was
impossible for Maddie to leave alone)
Gerry searching alone.
Thus, opportunity to be seen by the Smiths.
................
What if, what if
the very reason Mr & Mrs Smith
believed it might have been Gerry was
because it was Gerry.That's possible isn't it. Wouldn't you say that's possible, based on the evidence presented?
