Madeleine McCann: When The Sniffer Dogs Barked And Casey Anthony
MADDIE WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann, Kate McCann and Gerry McCann
THE SUN (front page): “BARKING – The moment Maddie cops say dog made McCanns ‘suspects’
No, not the tabloid dog pack. There’s a picture of a spaniel crawling on a sofa. To its rear is a man. There is a pair of blue drapes, open.
And another picture of a dog, which may be same dog. The caption:
Howl … pooch alerts handler to ‘evidence’ found in the parents’ rented motor
Pages 4 and 5: “HOUNDING OF THE McCANNS”
THESE were the scenes as two police sniffer dogs investigated the disappearance of little Madeleine McCann — and left her shell-shocked parents wrongly in the frame.
You can never trust a dog, much less a Portuguese dog…
The 2½-hour film, shot on a police camcorder, chronicles the work of two specially-trained British sniffer dogs.
It was the British all along, friendly fire, blue on blue disaster…
It details the moments when the springer spaniels apparently detected:
Barking … the moment Maddie cops say dog made McCanns ’suspects’
The scent of a dead body in the McCanns’ rented Renault Scenic, hired 25 days after Maddie vanished shortly before her fourth birthday in May 2007
An aroma of blood in a bedroom cupboard in the family’s Praia da Luz holiday apartment, and
A smell of death on Kate’s clothes.
Good of the Sun to repeat all the apparent speculation again. And tell us that – hold that apology to the Portuguese, the dog handler was one of them, a Portuguese…
Eddie is first to be taken into the two-bed apartment and spends nearly 30 minutes sniffing around. He barks twice — once in a bedroom and once at a spot behind a sofa underneath a living room window.
Woof! Woof!
Martin says: “As soon as I came in the dog is very excited. From his body language it would appear he has picked up a scent that he recognises. There is enough scent there for him to give me a bark indication.”
Woof!
After Eddie leaves the apartment, Martin takes in Keela. She can be seen freezing — a sign she has found something — underneath the window where Eddie had earlier barked.
And..?
Martin says on camera: “The crime scene dog has given me a positive indication. That indicates to me there is some human blood there. She will detect blood that is very old and find anybody’s blood.”
Not a blood hound – a spaniel…
While Portuguese cops carried out DNA tests on “fluids” found in the flat, it has never been revealed if any blood was found.
And the British at the forensic lab in Birmingham, don’t forget them…
Detectives also asked Martin to use his dogs on the McCanns’ hire car.
Oh, yes, the Renault Scenic…
Eddie is seen barking at the driver’s door before standing still in the boot, then scrabbling in one corner. Martin says: “We had a reaction from the dog. The scent is coming out of the sealed door.”
RINGSIDE REPORT (US): “More Charges For Caylee’s mom”
An online boxing magazine delivers the news with punch. Ding! Ding!
Every time a child disappears, it must be taken seriously. For months, we have been awaiting for good news of British girl Madeleine McCann, the four year old princess who disappeared in Portugal. Now, it turns out, the United States has an even worse case at hand, that of Caylee Anthony, a 3 year old angel who mysteriously disappeared from Florida and whom police investigations point out to be a likely murder victim.
Seconds out!
Number one, if Casey Anthony is involved in her daughter’s disappearance, all she deserves is 12 rounds with Lennox Lewis, after having people completely tie her up to a corner. Number two, we are all praying at RSR so that the first thing the grandmother said becomes a reality, and Caylee is found alive, as well as Madeleine McCann.
Lennox beats up women, Lennox beats up women, la-la-la-la…

THe contaminated carpet squares (of interest: there was no direct contact between the odor and the carpet) must have however been presented to the dogs together with other carpet squares - in fact the specificity data (91–100) entails that the scent was picked out of other scents

No it does’nt liza. It just shows that there was a 9% failure to pick up cadaver.

Reports are coming in that Pete Docherty was was stopped by the drugs squad only to find he had some extra strong mints in his pocket.
September 5th, 2008 at 12:32 pm
Cleaseau,
It is obvious to me that a member of the PJ spat into the back of the McCanns Renault, so getting the results they wanted.
September 5th, 2008 at 12:31 pm
This is your fault Stig - you started all this

Garth - an abstract does not illustate methjods and methodology in-depth. THe contaminated carpet squares (of interest: there was no direct contact between the odor and the carpet) must have however been presented to the dogs together with other carpet squares - in fact the specificity data (91–100) entails that the scent was picked out of other scents
Also of interest was that the scent was detected on the 10-min exposed squares after 65 days (contrary to the statement Stig pasted)
Finally, of even greater interest was the very short PMI (Isuppore, post mortem interval?) of less then 3 hrs
September 5th, 2008 at 12:27 pm
GARTH
I have a question for you
You are saying Madeleine has died in the hands of a paedo….who?
Once of the only recent child who died in the hands of scuh an arse is MARI LUZ CORTES.
On top of that,the poor beautiful Little Girl died because of the mediatic pressure….with compliments to the mcccIVF
Court case going on……..?

Chenier
How do you account the examples given by Stig regarding the bible?
Do you have any more links?
September 5th, 2008 at 12:26 pm
remains were found equally by the cadaver dogs along with some caveats. Dog handlers affected the reliability of the cadaver dog results.

September 5th, 2008 at 12:25 pm
Apologies if i threw you there Chenier, or anyone else for that matter.
I knew exactly what your point was. I was also making a point.
September 5th, 2008 at 12:24 pm
if a lot of time has elapsed since the body was removed from the scene, Cadaver dogs can find the remains of people who have been dead for years or even decades. But it’s much harder for the dogs if the bulk of the remains are gone. In that case, they can pick up the scent from small amounts of body tissue, like a blood stain or nail clippings, or even from materials that came into contact with the tissue.

Garth,
The Real Stig had claimed that cadaver dogs could not detect a scent until a lengthy period postmortem, and asked for the research which showed otherwise.
I provided the link to the research which proved him wrong.
If you now wish to pretend that the Real Stig asked a different question that is up to you…
September 5th, 2008 at 12:20 pm
I don’t believe Garth has ever claimed to know exactly what happened? He has put forward a couple of his own theories … which we’ve stomped on one by one (sorry babes
) … but haven’t we all put our own theories across at one or another time?
