Madeleine McCann: The Scenic 17, Dr Denny Says And DNA
MADDY WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
DAILY EXPRESS page 21: “New DNA tests could unlock the mystery of lost Madeleine”
More DNA tests at the Forensic Science Service laboratory in Birmingham And this after the DNA tests proved inconclusive…
“Seventeen human cells could provide a major breakthrough in the Madeleine McCann mystery…The DNA samples are being examined by scientists in Britain and Portuguese detectives believe the evidence could unlock an investigation which is now in its eighth month”
The Tapas 7. The Tapas 9. The Scenic 17…
Guilhermino Encarnacao, head of the Policia Judiciaria in the Algarve, says: “We have asked the laboratory to carry out more tests and exhaust every possibility of obtaining conclusive results”
Says Forensic scientist Dr Ronald Denny (not working on the case): “A cell is negligible – you can just about see it under a microscope. It’s a sample someone would leave behind with the touch of a finger. But when placed with certain biochemicals a small amount of DNA grows to a size that can be analysed”
“GP Kate and heart consultant Gerry” are “both 39”
THE SUN page 15: “Only 17 cells of DNA in hol car”
“Cops looking for Madeleine McCann are banking on ‘a smidgen’ of DNA evidence. Scientists have found just 17 cells on samples taken from a hire car rented by Kate and Gerry McCann and their holiday flat”
Says independent forensic expert Dr Ronald Denny: “It is not a hopeless task. If they have 17 cells then they can carry it off very effectively in Birmingham, one of the leading labs in the world”
DAILY MAIL page 5: “Mission Impossible – Forensic evidence too poor to solve mystery of Madeleine, say police”
But Dr Denny is telling two papers otherwise…
A source tells Portuguese newspaper 24 Horas: “It is highly unlikely they will find a DNA connection…If everybody refuses to make statements, which is perfectly possible, we will be left with our hands tied. This is a case which could hang by a thread for years and we may never be able to prove what actually happened to that child”
But what about Dr Denny. Why don’t they ask Dr Denny?
Says Dr Denny: “A person, or their possessions, have to be present for the cells to come off”
DAILY MIRROR page 7: “Maddy: Smidgen of DNA will work?”
Dr Denny is on the case, or not. But the “independent British expert” does have an opinion which is able to share with all of us
DAILY STAR page 9: “MADDIE: IT’S ALL DOWN TO 17 CELLS”
Dr Denny is talking to Star readers…
“Top cop in blast at private eyes” – Former deputy chief constable of Manchester Police John Stalker says of Metodo 3: “I’m not impressed with these people at all. I’d be very surprised if they get anywhere”
This is the same Stalker who delivered “MY VERDICT” to Express reader back in October
“There’s a world of difference in following a paper chase and finding a flesh-and-blood child”
Or a newspaper chase…
DAILY TELEGRAPH page 11: “Madeleine tests are ‘mission impossible’”
Says a source in 24 Horas: “The samples reportedly include microscopic spots of blood from the Ocean Club apartment where Madeleine went missing and ‘bodily fluids’ and hair from the Renault Scenic hired by the McCanns 25 days after their daughter’s disappearance. The samples are so small that, while it will not be impossible to find a DNA link between the car, apartment and Madeleine, it’s highly unlikely The tests being carried out are extremely complex”
But Dr Denny says…
Says Clarence Mitchell: “Kate and Gerry’s friends have consistently said they are happy to be re-interviewed by police if necessary. Indeed, they are keen to help if it clears up any inconsistencies. They, like Gerry and Kate, have nothing to hide”
THE GUARDIAN and THE INDEPENDENT: “No Madeleine news today

‘It is, like other amphetamines, highly addictive, and there are known to be cases where other household members have become addicted to it, diverting the medication from the person it’s been prescribed for.’
that’s really not true chenier, it’s not addictive, i’ve had it prescribed in the past and my son still has it prescribed. in people who do have ahdh it doesn’t work like speed/amphetamines, it works strangley enough the other way around and slows them down somewhat.
————————————-
I think the point is that it is not addictive if you actually have ahdh; it works, as you say, in slowing you down.
The effects on someone who does not have ahdh are very different; it’s generally accepted that people do become addicted to it. It should mention this in the documentation which accompanies the medication…

953 Stevo,
The criteria is if you are born in Donegal you are Irish, Glasgow you are Scottish, etc
and since the Queen is Monarch of the United Kingdom the citizens of all four Countries
are her “Subjects” . Therefore, on your Passport your place of birth would be Scotland,
United Kingdom…………does that make sense to you? Also, with regards to Football, say you
were born in England but had a Grandmother/Father born in Ireland you could play for Ireland.

Did anything ever come of that body that was found off Cascais? Hell’s Mouth, washed into a cave. I remember a vague little rumble that it was of a man, but no confirmation. Only, now that our focus has shifted from Huelva, which was nowhere near Cascais. I just wondered?

My sister’s a surgeon….shes 30…she still works ER nights!!!!! It was she who told me there was no way a doctor would not know they would be grilled …anything to do with children especially…They are not that much older…..Now the sedation….that she believes!!
Chenier…who knows what Tanner’s angle is.!..I suspected she was providing an alibi for her partner ….only speculating of course…Why??…It’s a mystery…

Many thank for the info, what would the people who so generously donated think if they
realised Income Tax will be deducted, these Directors are not stupid so their must be dark reason for setting up a Company rather than a Charity.

Apart from being British the 4 Countries form part of the United Kingdom under which
Passports are issued. The Only time you can claim dual citizenship is if your Parents were
say born in France and you were born in the United Kingdom. With regards to Football,
you can play for another Country if your Grandmother was born there ( a spurious attempt
to get the best players to play International matches for other Countries)

The thing is that Tanner has given her witness account and I can’t account for it in your scenario!!! Why would she do that? We know the idea about giving the impression of being better parents…but doesn’t explain why they’d be prepared to go that far….unless they really believed it had been and abduction?…All doctors do time in the ER…in their first couple of years..
————————————
There were other witnesses, who didn’t see Bundleman. So that leaves her with a problem.
I really don’t know why she should see someone that the other witnesses didn’t. Possible answers range from attempt to divert attention from her partner, through hallucination to innocent error. I think Peter O might come up with some more…
There’s no reason to believe that the rest of the Tapas 9 must have known there was no abduction; they may have simply trying to cover their backs.
And whilst all doctors do a short stint in A&E in their early years, the McCanns are pushing 40. Rather a long time to remember how police operate…
