Questions to Goncalo Amaral about the Maddie case.

[Mr Gray]

I could think of several innocuous questions which he should be able to answer.

1.  Did you meet the McCanns during your investigation?
2.  What did Jane Tanner really say about Murat?
3.  Are you going to publish another Maddie book?
4.  Why did you publicly criticise the English police?
5.  Do you still think the Smith's sighting significant?
6.  Are you going to sue the McCanns for loss?

Does anyone have contact details for him

[John]

Does anyone have contact details for him

Yes

[Mr Gray]

Yes

Then why not draw up a list of questions... Say 48....email them to him and see if he answers

[Vertigo Swirl]

I thought Grime couldn’t respond because it’s a live investigation, so why would Amaral be able to?

[Mr Gray]

Yes

Di you really think he would answer questions from this forum

[John]

I thought Grime couldn’t respond because it’s a live investigation, so why would Amaral be able to?

Grime answered anything he was allowed to and felt comfortable about.  Amaral might feel more able to answer.

[John]

Di you really think he would answer questions from this forum

Yes I do if it was done properly.

[slartibartfast]

What about..... Dr A.... What do you understand  by no evidential reliability

How about, what did Grime tell you about the alerts....

[Mr Gray]

Yes I do if it was done properly.

Then go ahead... I can't help but feel it will never happen

[Mr Gray]

How about, what did Grime tell you about the alerts....

Its in the files...Mark Harrison was there

After the conclusion of the searches, a meeting in the Portimao offices of the PJ took place in the cabinet of Goncalo AMARAL and those present included Guilermino ENCARNACO, an official representative from the Leicestershire police, Martin GRIME and myself. During the meeting were exhibited videos with the details of search activities including the sniffer dogs lead by Martin GRIME. GRIME commented on the actions of the dogs and added that no confirmed evidence or information could be taken from the alerts by the dogs but needed to be confirmed with physical evidence.

Did you locate and identify the second main luggage bag missing in apartment 5A crime scene photos?

Did the dog team return the pink blanket to the McCanns?

Can you tell us more about the witness who claimed to have seen the McCanns carrying a big black bag? Date/time? Location of sighting?

On which cases did Eddie/Keela work for Scotland Yard?

How many days did the witness say the boot was left open for?

Did the cleaner tell you that she cleaned the window and it was locked on Wednesday 2 May before finger prints were discovered the following day?

Why didn't you question the McCanns as to why they wiped their mobile history only hours after Madeleine disappeared? Did you not think it was suspicious with a tampered crime scene?

Why didn't you perform tests on the twins for sedation?

Where do you think Madeleine is now? Location?

Why didn't you interview John Geraghty who sorted out keys for the church?

Did you know about the second set of mobiles provided on 4 May 2007 by David Payne?

Did you question Jane Tanner why she was seen hanging outside the apartments that night by witness Jez Wilkins?

Did you find any evidence that Madeleine was in bed on the night she disappeared?

Do you think the unidentified finger print found on the McCanns bedroom window/door is important to what happened that night?

Where do you think Smithman took the child to that night?

[misty]

"Why did you sign a book deal during the time you were bound by judicial secrecy?"

[Angelo222]

One question I would like him to answer is about the events which occurred post disappearance involving Marcos Correia who was indirectly funded by the Madeleine Fund.

Goncarlo

1 -  why do you regret sending the DNA to the Birmingham Forensic lab

2 - How did it feel when the prime minister wanted confirmation you had been removed from the case.


3 - Why did they really want you off the case

[Miss Taken Identity]

I would like to ask.

1. apart from the theory you wrote about in your book- about an accident followed by a cover up, was there any other theory considered as a real possibility (not abduction from apartment by strangers) and  how long was it when your team were convinced the parents were suspected of not telling the truth
2.When were you told it was an abduction and not a missing child wandering off situation, you were to co ordinate
3. why was a reconstruction not insisted before they were made suspects. If their time-line was not believed.
4  what would you do differently if you were still in the PJ and a similar situation was presented to you now.
