Madeleine McCann: Tourist Has New Pictures Of Tapas 7 For Sale
PAULO Reis has published an interesting piece of information on the Madeleine McCann case on his site. Read on:
“McCann case: 24 pictures that may help to re-open the case
A tourist who was (allegedly) at the Tapas Bar, on the night of May 3, took several pictures where the table with the McCanns and their friends is visible.
The tourist was with his wife and another couple and they took pictures from each other, with the McCann table on the background.
The owner of the pictures is (said to be) negotiating with several British newspapers to sell the rights for an exclusive publication, but with a condition: before being published, the pictures must be sent to the Portuguese police.
The tourist is well aware that the pictures may have important evidence related with a crime and not sending it to police is considered also a crime, in his country.
Yesterday, a well known legal office from UK (allegedly) knew about the existence of those pictures and contacted the owner, offering to buy all pictures for 600,000 Euros. But the British lawyers didn’t accept the condition set by the owner – that the pictures should be sent to the Portuguese police, just before the transaction. The lawyers’ office wanted to be free to choose the moment when the pictures would be send to Portuguese authorities, so the offer was refused by the tourist.“

Wrires Carmen:
Assuming that the above is true and genuine, it begs the question, when exactly did ‘British lawyers’ feel that they were able to dictate when information in a criminal case should be handed over to the police? Is Madeleine not a Ward of Court, are they not officers of the court? Do they not have a duty to the court - the British court - not just the Portuguese court, to instantly hand over any information that may be pertinent to solving the riddle of what happened to Madeleine.
I have mixed feelings regarding the purchase of information when it is done by newspapers, but is this a new era, that information is being purchased by lawyers, who then decide what to do with it?
Why has the tourist not come forward before?
What or whom, is, or is not, in those photographs that makes them worth 600,000 euros.
Where is the 600,000 euros coming from - the last we heard the McCann Find Madeleine fund was down to it’s last 480,000 euros.So it could not possibly be the legal firm involved with the McCann Fund…could it?
One other question would be if the tourist sold the pictures to a legal firm intent on suppression - would the gent have his collar felt?

You could observe that they were closed.
And could also have observed that the shutters were jemmied.
Surprising that MO never reported back after his…er….check…”Oi Doc’s,
Your window is open and the shutters look as if a jemmy has been used on them.
Bits of shutter everywhere….a total mess….get up there quick”.

Thanks for that image!

What a photo, hopefully a 10 pix camera and a good zoom

Pictures give the time. They might help to know who left the table, and exactly when. Supposing they exist.
Who would boast of having hidden evidence from the investigation, and how could lawyers accept to cheat the law? If they really had accepted to buy them and asked for the Pj not to receive them, they would be stupid, as it would show them for dishonest.

Are you on the pop?
August 13th, 2008 at 12:17 pm
jo - yes, strangely very quickly could find the Sky News number! I bet the Mcs are thinking hard now re their next move. Having photos that show any sign of Maddie at the time she was supposed to be in the creche or in the apartment will need some explanation from the Mcs. All going to be very interesting now. I agree with you….surely the PJ knew of these pictures. Perhaps the PJ have let the other photos out of the bag to coincide with the release of the files, and so to speak, let the cat amongst the pigens.

I see, CCTV footage. I was trying to work out if there was an inside balcony at the Taps where the photo would have been taken. Now all is clear, thankyou for that.

But hang on lyn, couldnt the person taking the photo have been stood on a chair behind the bar? Don’t discount this theory for gawds sake. All is not what it seems eh?

IF the shutters [and the window] would have been fully closed, the alleged WINDOW checks by Matt O [9 pm according to GM's handwritten timeline] would not have been serving any purpose, would they? What does one expect to be able to observe outside a closed window with closed shutters …?

So in a nutshell - none of us a have got a clue whose fingerprints (if any) were found before or after the shutters (or/and) windows were possibly/maybe cleaned by said unknown persons.
Brilliant! Lets move on………..

Garth
the official report states that the only finger print on the shutters is Kates - so did she ‘tamper’ with them?
—————–
Really, so you believe that those shutters were wiped clean or washed clean after every fucker opened or closed the shutters. Of course apart from Kates right?
*********************************************************************
I think it was the window in the child’s bedroom which had Kate’s fingerprints and nobody else’s, and it had been cleaned the previous day. I don’t think any fingerprints were found on the shutters, though. Although, thinking back, I do seem to remember something about fingerprints being found but they turned out to belong to a policeman. That might have been the shutters.

Is this really Madeleine? can we know for sure this is Madeleine?
Where are the mccHitlers? well…accordingly to what they said,they were doing their check on the sleepings kids werent they?never mind at which time etc….they did not have a watch,nor phones nor nothing…only sky news number…..never mind,never mind.
Lets see how the PJ is going to react to this….soon,soon…as if they already did not know the existence of the pics.Do you really believe they did not know about the pics?
Personally,I dont….remember? the case is shelved,left “ajar” in case some new evidence turns up….all the confusing contradictions…the desperate mccHitlers call to whomever knows “something”…methinks the machine needs some “oil” clarrie,c”mon
Any announcement over the pics or are they silently furious?
August 13th, 2008 at 12:00 pm
Lyn.. BF…. I understood this to be a still photo taken from the CCTV footage from the beach bar.
Lyn, the CCTV footage been with the PJ since the beginning and was released recently as part of the files.
if you think it is a breakthrough how do you think the PJ missed said breakthrough?

Lets get back to your main point. If you look at the latest pic of the room it shows that the shutters werent fully closed. Now, whether Kate believed them to have been tampered with or not I dont know. I assume in her state of panic that she may have felt that was the way a person had made an entry. She may well have been completely mistaken. But like i have tried to explain to you in a state of panic and given the situation your mind will only think the worst.
I dont believe there’s anything more that it than that to be honest. However, if you feel this is just another act to cover up the death of their child then all i can say is ’sad old you’.

Gosh, that kid in the photo looks like Maddie. If the camera had a date and time on it, well, new evidence could come to light couldn’t it. This photos looks like it could be enhanced to see who the children are!
