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”

Can someone with a legal understanding help me please?
What would happen if a spokesperson for two suspects in a UK missing persons case stood up on national television without the say so of the investigating officers and bandied about a sketch of someone they say may have been complicit in the case?
———————
No legal knowledge but I would say it would depend on whether the spokesperson knew (at the time) if the sketch was founded on genuine belief or not. If it was an attempt to raise funds and it was known to be without genuine foundation then obtaining money by deception would probably be written on the charge sheet.

In UK at this stage they would probably just classed as “helping police with their inquiries” - so I imagine nothing would happen apart from the Police being very annoyed - as are PJ.

SC46. Essex is good; however, the white stiletto/ford cortina/dancing around the handbag jokes do get a bit wearing after sooooo many years.
As an author I get interviewed and there is always some smart ass joke / comment and I have to pretend to be amused!!!

When that plane crashed I was listening to the radio and they were interviewing the editor of the The Sun. He was saying how newspapers like a hero. They asked him a few questions about the crash and the gist of his reply was that they were being told things, but that they always were. Their job was to check up on what they were being told before publishing.
Oh yeah - The Sun?
Anyway, sure enough they got the hero wrong too!
Facts and Journalism.

You’d be amazed what you can do with those liquorice shoe laces! Tell me, do you look better in red, or perhaps black?

Peter - just asking for clarification (not clarryfication) of the question before I answer

I generally find that allowing ones imagination to run riot produces the most interesting results. Which is possibly what Chief Detective Inspector Comical Clarence Clouseau did before embarking on his latest publicity stunt!
