Madeleine McCann: The Witnesses See, A Sketch And Killer Bob
MADDYWATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
DAILY MAIL: “Madeleine: Four witnesses say they saw suspect pictured in new poster campaign”
“Four key witnesses in the Madeleine McCann investigation could have seen the man shown in a new sketch of a potential suspect, it emerged yesterday”
But there were no witnesses? And “could” and “potential” in one line…
“But four witnesses may have seen the unidentified man - first on the night the three-year-old went missing, then later with named suspect Robert Murat, and finally in Morocco”
“Jane Tanner, who told police she saw a man carrying a child away from the McCanns’ apartment, said she was “80 per cent sure” he was the one depicted in the artist’s impression”
“Isabel Gonzalez, who said she saw Madeleine with a Berber woman in Morocco, said the sketch looked ‘very similar’ to a man she saw immediately after the sighting”
Amanda Mills, 34, from Basildon, Essex, claimed to have spotted a man trying to break into a bedroom window at the Ocean Club in Praia da Luz a week before Madeleine disappeared from the complex.
“Last night she said there are “strong similarities” between the man she saw and the new sketch.
“Nanny Charlotte Pennington’s description of a person she saw with Mr Murat also matches the man shown in the artist’s impression”
DAILY EXPRESS: “New manhunt ‘another diversion by McCanns’”
One Portuguese policeman “stormed”: “The purpose of this exercise by the McCanns is the same as always. It’s another diversionary tactic”
DAILY STAR: “YOU WON’T THROW US OFF THE SCENT”
“Cops blast Maddie sketch as McCann tactic”
DAILY MIRROR: “Madeleine witnesses: This is him”
Witnesses says the sketch cold be a picture of the man they saw. Or it could not be
DEFAMER: Or does the new sketch of the man suspected of snatching young Madeleine McCann look a lot like Killer Bob?
NEW YORK POST: “SKETCHY SUSPECT IN MADDIE MYSTERY”
A picture of the man and he caption: “WANTED – SOUGHT IN KID SWIPE”

You have to laugh at this stage. And I would laugh out loud except then I remember Madeleine. Strange how little she is really the focus anymore. All about Kate and Gerry. But then I think, looking back on the last 8 months, it probably always was.

hi noseycow
trying to stay away from here but it still lures me back - especially when the latest ‘breaking news’ stories are as ridiculous as this newest one.
I thought Jane Tanner said she initially didn’t see the ‘abductor’s’ face as
(a) he was walking away sideways
(b) it was quite dark.
And, correct me if I am wrong, but didn’t she also initially say she thought the child was wrapped in a blanket.
NOW - 8 months later, she can confirm that the previously unseen pyjamas were pink with flowers, but that also that the previously faceless ‘abductor’ was a William Dafoe-with beard look-alike.
In the words of our comical one - whole thing has become quite LUDICROUS.
Team McCann has switched 99% of the world off now with each new ‘revelation’ and sadly that means that most people now hardly care anymore. Sad for Madeleine that is.

“…..Controversial boss Francisco Marco - rapped over a series of claims he knows who took Madeleine and is pretty sure where she is - has pledged to find her before March…..”

I don’t think coolandcalm is going to be commenting anytime soon on just why she is so convinced that Clarence’s failure to fax the sketch of the alleged abductor to the Spanish police looking for little Mari is perfectly morally acceptable….
””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””’
You are putting words into my mouth in a very devious way inferring that I have said that! Very naughty indeed as I haven’t even commented on that!!
I’m flattered that you think I’m privy to Clarence Mitchell’s inner thoughts but sadly I’m not even privy to his outer thoughts!
BTW how do you know he didn’t fax it? are you privy??
January 22nd, 2008 at 10:49 am
brandon - someone posted on here last night - that it can take up to six months for eurojust too get the tapas 7/9/10 reinterveiwed - why march?

I was not referring to matty’s post…and your input re it.
I was referring to what you posted a couple of days ago…when
you referred to your conversations with your friends when in PDL
and added that you now had the “real picture”.
I answered that particular post of your’s by suggesting that I thought
that the PJ’s “real picture” would be more “real” than your “real picture”.
You responded…”We shall see”.

What the police are in effect suggesting is that they can show first what happened, then who did what and when to hide the discovery, why they did this, how this was done, where the evidence was removed to temporarily (a neighbouring apartment), that during the following days the same accessories then placed the evidence outside the perimeter of the ongoing searches (they know where), that the temporary disposal site was deemed insecure by the lead party and a more secure and destructive location identified, that weeks later there was a difficulty in retrieving the evidence for permanent relocation, that this required a phone call from the UK to accomplish, that a hire car rented for various purposes was used to transport the evidence for the last time, and so - hey presto! - a perfect narrative backed up by a chain of evidence.
No real doubt therefore remains about how the whole thing tied together, so the first question is what will be the response at reinterview and will the inevitability of arrest and sway parties into bargaining for lesser charges? The process either way switches back to Portugal, warrants will almost definitely be sought, and at least three parties will be arrested and charged as a result.
The second question is what will the charges be? And this depends on attitudes at reinterview. One party at least is likely inescapably facing very serious charges and has no incentive to change story. Although seriously implicated in what the police see as a plot to deceive, the two people likely to be shown as accessories are the means to effectively prosecute the third, so their decisions when faced with evidence of their own involvement are pivotal.
The case is - in legal terms - solved.

Thanks for this info. It seems credible. Where did you get the information from?

You mean like Clarence’s press conference?
So would you please give us the benefit of your views on the questions I asked you?
January 22nd, 2008 at 10:45 am
Ian my dear boy, why don’t you examine the ethics of people, who have convicted the arguidos, or two of them at least. You can’t because you are one of them, must be something in the past, disturbed childhood, latch key kids the need for revenge….etc…etc….etc

“The parents of missing Spanish youngster Mari Luz Cortes want to hire Kate and Gerry McCann’s private detectives.
The five-year-old’s family plan to hire Metodo 3 if police fail to come up with clues to her whereabouts by the start of next week.
Mari Luz’s distraught ex-footballer dad Juan Jose Cortes last night said: “Today I’ve felt more anger than ever.
“Enough’s enough. We don’t want compassion, we want results.”
