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 TRUTH

You will have to ask Martin Grimes or the FSS clueless, as the dogs are unable to speak for themselves.

Merci Garth - but you know, nobody is absolutely impartial, so it goes without saying that in any debate, we all tend to base our ideas and opinions on liking or not liking someone or something.
I have a hard time believing JT’s statement, but even if I did, I would not take it to be hard evidence, since:
- as the McC’s have said, it’s a very quiet, sleepy little place, and there were 2 men talking in the street vvery close to where this alledged guy w/child passed - based on the consideration that a quiet sleepy place is by defnition quiet, I feel confident that the voices of the two men talking (and Gerry has been reported to be a loud speaking man) would carry quite far, so I suppose an abductor would either go the other direction or wait until the people left.
- A man carrying a child is not 100% an abductor (it makes me think of JW’s wife article stating that one evening her husband ‘carried home their child wrapped in a blanket
So I believe that there is no hard evidence either way, and we are here mostly to discuss and debate and get some head-bashing done…. I don’t care either way about the McC’s as persons, I feel they were negligent (do you have kids, Garth?) and either they sedated their kids or they are really ignorant physicians and wouldn’t trust them to wax my legs

They said that they only left the patio doors unlocked on May 3rd.
Do you think the abductor knew they were going to that or do you think that they were going to jemmy the shutters if they hadn’t left the doors unlocked?
————–
It’s a good question. But how do we also know that this abductor hadn’t tried to enter the apartment on a previous night?

I see the clown believes that other posters cannot think for themselves, always directing and clarifying things as tho those posters are not very bright. Care in the community has a lot to answer for, well in the clown’s case at any rate.

Unless you believe Tanner then there is no hard evidence.
Either Tanner lied because she is implicated or she didn’t lie.
With no firm evidence to prove the contrary then i think the likelihood is that an abduction took place.
But then there are many indicating factors on both sides of the fence i know.
Its a case of using your common sense to judge.
Without being disingenuous to some the facts are that it would be virtually impossible to conceal a crime in the short space of time without anything firm pointing to their involvement.
Unfortunately many opinions on here are tainted by the mere fact that they dislike the McCanns for leaving them tots on their own.
To have any chance of a balanced view you need to take that out of the equation.
Its obvious here that many cant.
September 5th, 2008 at 10:18 am
ok fair comment…so if no dead caderverythings….how do you explain the death scent then? over to you
September 5th, 2008 at 10:17 am

Shame, maybe they could not afford those little “soiled nappy bags”. But then they should have disposed of the nappies as they were changed like any other person would do….. like in their holiday flat bin or in any nappy changing station bin
September 5th, 2008 at 10:13 am
Do keep up clueless old news wont cover your embarassment, do you know that there is not one mention of the six corpse myth in the OFFICIAL PJ CASE REPORT , simple isn’t it, how could they possibly miss such incriminating evidence, maybe it’s a myth the six cadavery type thingys.

A TINY SNIPPET
A police dog sniffed out traces of corpses on Kate’s clothes, it is said. “Apparently the dog started barking at my jeans and in the apartment,” said Kate.
Friends have pointed out that GP Kate was present at several deaths before she went away on holiday.

I think the pink top was Kates one that she wore at the hospital when she came into contact with ALL those corpses - must be nice to work in an such a casual hospital that you can double up your wardrobe for “holiday wear”
……………………………………………………………………………..
And we sit around in the UK why people are dropping like flies from MRSA etc!!!!
Still if it’s true that nappies and meat were being carted around in the boot of car - and not in sealed containers!!!
Looks like they are really disgustingly filthy!
CALLING ALL DOCTORS AND HEALTH WORKERS!
Make sure that you get your clothes cleaned properly and keep your work clothes entirely separate from your civvy clothes!

To my mind the abduction was without doubt intended/planned.
Someone within either the complex itself or who holidayed or lived near the complex had spotted Madeleine.
But did they know that May 3rd was the last night?
September 5th, 2008 at 10:09 am
Oh Garth and here I was thinking there was the soul of a gentleman under the layers of the rough and tough garth…
Pazienza!
Garth, last thing before I go - would you mind telling me on what hard evidence do you base your conclusion that Maddie was abducted?
a big kiss even though you are a rogue!

Obviously they don’t tell you anything liza. Pointless me trying to explain really:roll:
Regarding what happend to Madeleine - we have to face up to the ‘real’ possibilities. And hate the thought we may, the likelihood is that she succumbed a death at the hands of a paedophile.

you can see the reference to the six bodies…point it out to Raspy for me would you

The dogs also sniffed items of clothing — and the film shows Eddie again picking up a scent on some of Kate’s.
The family GP has insisted she came into contact with at least SIX dead bodies before going on holiday with her husband and three children.
Martin and the spaniels are then taken round the apartment hired by the McCanns after Maddie vanished. No evidence is uncovered there.
Portuguese police used the findings as a basis for their theory that Maddie had died in the family’s apartment on the night she went missing.
The scent in the car convinced them the couple had hidden her body and later disposed of it, despite the world’s media watching their every movement.

In any case, I’d like to say that I for Maddie’s sake, I absolutely hope that an accident or an overdose happened at the apartment that night - honestly, and not to blame the parents, just to be sure that she didn’t suffer at the hands of a paedo… Wouldn’t you prefer it to have been so?
September 5th, 2008 at 9:51 am
What article, the one that doesn’t exist about the six cadavers, yes it is simple, found out again clueless clutching at non existent straws.
