Madeleine McCann: Tabloid Snap, Metodo 3 PD and McCanns Innocent
MADDYWATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
DAILY MIRROR: “I’M NOT GUILTY”
“A loner who looks like a drawing of a ‘creepy’ Madeleine McCann suspect has denied any links to her disappearance”
Joaquim Agostinho says: “It’s not me in the picture. I accept that the drawing looks like me”
The Mirror reports: “The former cockle picker, who lives in Altura, 90 miles from Praia da Luz, added: ‘I did not kill Madeleine and I’ve never been to Praia da Luz. I cannot even drive’”
But still his picture is in the paper in connection with a story about a missing child. Fingers are pointed
MADELEINE in Chile. What news of that? “Yesterday, police ruled out a “Madeleine” sighting in Chile after the girl was identified as American Haylee Dreyer, six”
DAILY EXPRESS front page: “MADELEINE – Amazing lookalike: ‘I did not kidnap and kill her’”
Mr Agostinho looks like an artist’s impression of man whom British tourist Gail Cooper says she saw acting hanging around Praia da Luz. He is the “oddball”
Page 11: “DRIFTER MATCHES NEW MADELEINE SUSPECT”
Matches. Like in a game of snap? Snap! Snap! Snap!
“Investigators want to quiz a Portuguese drifter suspected of involvement in the disappearance of Madeleine McCann. Detectives working for the youngster’s parents are to question Joaquim Agostinho, 42, in the resort of Altura”
Does he have to speak with the McCanns detectives?
“Mr Agostinho, who lives in Altura, said yesterday: ‘I did not kill Madeleine and I’ve never been to Praia da Luz. I cannot even drive.’ Altura is close to the Spanish border and detectives from Metodo 3 – the agency working for the McCanns – were last night travelling there from their headquarters in Barcelona”
Again, does he have to speak with private detectives?
THE SUN: “McCANN COPS QUIZ SUSPECT LOOKALIKE”
“Detectives are to quiz a drifter who looks uncannily like a mystery suspect in Maddie McCann’s disappearance. Joaquim Agostinho, 42, denies he is the creepy man depicted in a sketch issued by parents Kate and Gerry McCann
“But Metodo 3, the Spanish private investigators hired by the McCanns, are taking the possibility seriously”
Is Metodo 3 now a police force?
A source close to Metodo 3 says: “We are going to be talking to this man as a priority, to establish if he is the one Mrs Cooper saw”
What of the McCanns?
“COPS now accept Kate and Gerry, both 39, may be innocent in Maddie’s disappearance, it has emerged. They have so far clung to just one theory — that Maddie was accidentally killed and her parents disposed of her body. Now they are taking seriously the alternative that she was snatched from the holiday apartment last May — which Kate and Gerry have always insisted must have happened”
DAILY MAIL: “Is this drifter the man in Madeleine drawing?”
Mr Agostinho says no. He delivers newspapers for a living. He says he is innocent
Metodo 3 are looking to speak with him
DAILY STAR: “MADDIE: THREE MEN RULED OUT – McCanns’ new hopes shattered”
It’s not Joaquim Jose Marques – police have ruled him out; and the Star was so certain
It’s not the girl in Chile – she’s a girl on holiday with her family
It’s not Joaquim Agostinho – he says it’s not him
METRO: “Twins play ‘find Maddie’”
“Leading world sex crimes expert Ray Wyre” has met with Kate and Gerry McCann
He sees the McCanns’ twins children. Wyre tells the paper: “They said they were going to go and find the monster that took Maddie. Then they dashed off to play the game. It’s a sad story, but it is healthy that Madeleine remains a real presence in their lives”
“A spokesman for the McCanns denied the story”
Madeleine McCann: No news is still news

Ian
I’m updating some pages on my website. In doing that I was looking at the last photo again to see if there was anything new to add to it.
The little black line behind Amelie’s arm and body has always been a puzzle because there’s no black/white feature around the pool cement edge. But I may have an idea what it could be. There’s a photo of the pool here: http://tinyurl.com/35n22g
Notice the tiny white sign with black letters indicating the pool depth of 0.6m
It’s feasible that this sign is the thing creating the white with black behind Amelie. If so, it would mean that almost certainly Madeleine is correct in “Last Photo” but the other two were pasted in. Click my name for a link to the super close up of Madeleine. There’s still no valid explanation for the black line.
The super close up reveals that Madeleine’s hair has many loose strands that would be too time consuming to cut and paste in. But, looking at Gerry and Amelie, they are relatively smooth edged and would be a doddle to paste in by comparison. So, look closely at Gerry’s right elbow/forearm…it’s mis-shapen. Look also at the super close up of Madeleine and you’ll see that there’s a halo aroun Gerry’s elbow but there’s no halo around Madeleine. Remember also that there’s the Altar-ed photo of Madeleine minus Gerry that was in the church.
My conclusion - Madeleine is almost certainly 100% genuine and was in the original photo. But we don’t know when it was taken. I don’t believe the May 3/2:29pm for a second. Other point to note in the super close up is Madeleine’s face is very red. It looks like a face that has been out in the sun too long after just arriving in the resort?
The weather info for that week would be most useful…

No charges indicates corruption of politicians, not the lack of evidence, and those who agree that neglect took place should agree with Mc. going to prison for 2 years. That simple.

no garfy fairs fair , im happy to debate with you but i said i’ll give a bit and you give a bit. Now its your turn or do you not really want a debate, but an arguement instead. Come on garfy your piece of evidence please ????
—————
Right! We’ve got a response, a daft one albeit, but a response nonetheless.
Lets put one thing straight Wooster before we go any further. It is very hard for any person to argue that Madeliene was abducted because unfortunately the PJ failed to carryout normal practices one would expect and secure any possible evidence. That coupled with the fact that they have not believed the McCanns from day one doesnt give the likes of myself and any one else arguing in their defence much to go on. Having said that there are many factors which dont add up to them involved in any conspiracy. And having said that there are also reasons, I guess that people might think they do know more than they let on.
So apart from Tanners sighting, the irish families sighting there isant much for us to go on.But if we believed them then that in iteself is very convincing imo. However, lets not argue that one because i know how you’re not going to believe.
So what are we left with?
The PJ? Whom have, it would appear, not been the best.
Or the McCanns, with all the evidence that so many on here believe to be fact.
Lets go with the above and you start giving the facts that you believe are concrete evidence of their guilt. You might even persuade me to agree with you. So if you want to start us off…..

Gerry said ‘there was absolutely no suggestion’ that the children had been sedated.
He was responding to someone suggesting she had been sedated..ergo…he was lying.

Lets question the lies. Now, because you stated it, lets first discuss what lies you believe they have stated and then lets have the evidence that what you argue is fact. So go on……..

Your poor posting is preventing people from reading your posts. As a result some points may not be being challenged.
When one gets noticed it gets negated.
If you are so poor at presenting your argument, how on earth did you obtain any qualifications - or were they mutliple choice exam papers in some obscure and dubious internet college?
Try presenting one point clearly and unambiguously at a time, lets see if we cant clar a few things up.
Like me to start?
