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”

The new “abductor”-sketch is fasicinating: Are the teeth supposed to be the upper or the lower ones? One second I look at them and they seem to be the ones growing from the lower jaw - and the next second I look at the picture it’s the other way round!
Pure magic!
I saidthat yesterday. It’s difficult to know which way around they are. It’s like CM and GM have decided to leave no gum/tooth unturned!

Batman - LOL do it yourself
I had a one hour a day rule - but am having a slight domestic issue - and have gone on strike during january as far as house work goes am matching what mr. noseycow does on his days off - so i do laundery if he’s done some - clean a room if he has etc etc etc.
The house is well less than perfect - but i believe he (and kids) are getting the message. I don’t see how its fair that when both of us work full time (he mon - fri 9 - 5 ish) and me the most horrendous shifts imaginable i get to sort out finances, pay bills, arrange kids activities /parties/ dental appointments/, spend the day cleaning every time i get a day off etc etc etc.
I am not being petty - last year i also fitted a new (second hand thanks ebay) kitchen complete with plumbing decoration etc, made and fitted a complete shelving system to house the millions of books that we seem to have, and decorated the snug single handedley.
thus i seem to have a lot of free time lately and am at last (but probably not for long) doing what i want with it. I don’t like shopping, and i don’t like hairdressers etc - but i do like anorak!!

I’m sorry for I have clearly missed an important development here.
Looking at the article on the SOS Madeleine site (in French)
http://sosmaddie.dhblogs.be/
The article concludes that “the Police already know when and how Madeleine left the apartment, and also where she stayed during the intial days after her disapearance”.
I have not seen this mentioned anywhere else… is this news?

Chenier….
I don’t quite know what your issue is with me but I don’t take Anorak too seriously so if you want to poke away at every post I make then feel free. I’ll just add you to my ‘ignore’ list. No problem.
PS I could show you how to use Google though if it helps? All the answers are out there……….

I had no issue with you.
Though, since you now concede that you lack even the bare minimum of courtesy to the people who run Anorak to try and make your posts here truthful, I do have an issue with you now.
You appear to imagine that you are, in some fashion, condescending to add your wisdom to the common pool of Anorak’s readership.
Asking you for some evidence to support your claim that the Portuguese refused to dig up any roads in their search for Madeleine because it would cost too much is not unreasonable behaviour on my part.
You whinging about it is unreasonable behaviour on your part…

immediately, the little hint of pink in Gerry’s sunglasses look like it matches the colour of Madeleine’s clothes.
But indeed the position of the pool reflection is bizarre. Is there a credible way to examine this further?

Merely a thought on my part.

Yes, I read that too. But that doesn’t mean they downloaded all the photos or if they had multiple memory cards, some may not have been downloaded by that MW bloke.
On the link provided to the altar photo a few postings ago, there’s also a super close up of Gerry’s sunglasses that I hadn’t seen before:

This is interesting because with this resolution you can see the reflection a lot better and see some hint of pink in there. From that resolution I can work out a more accurate figure for the overall resolution of the last photo image. I can see more work to do!

what happened to your admirable ‘only one hour a day’ rule.
You filled me with good intentions and now I find that you are glued here like the rest of us.

I was merely suggesting that the cost of the roadwork be covered–I was not suggesting bribing the Portugese and was certainly not being insulting. You are not infering my meaning correctly.

Me too. God forbid but if the body of the Spanish girl was found with Madeleine, I dread to think of the type of people we’re dealing with to do such a thing.
January 22nd, 2008 at 3:47 pm
If these people were in pdl at the time of the so called abduction why has it taken eight months for them to come out as witnesses,surely if you were in town when something like this happened and you thought you saw someone acting strange you would report it straight away wouldnt you,? not wait eight months,especially when a child is involved,
Maybe the pj know there were lots of people involved and are playing games to see who comes forward etc,making the mccs sweat a bit and then see what they come up with next,seems a little strange that they are now stating more or less not to contact police but there own investigators,so ok the investigators grab the man and question him,(if they have that right,)what then? they cant prosecute him it still has to go to the police, so what are the mccs trying to prove,the pj must be laughing their socks off,can tony bennet throw a light on private investigation firms?,ie arrests and questioning,.

Stevo - the man from Mark Warners downloaded the pictures from the Mccanns camera to his laptop.

Why do I Gonzales and G Cooper act the same and look much the same. ?
Odd.
