Keine Beweise!! - dafür oder dagegen


Im Interview mit Sandra Felgueiras gab Gerry McCann das neue Mantra (neben "Teambuilding" mit "good ordinary people" und "inherently good people) bekannt, das er siebenmal wiederholte:

"Es wurde untersucht, die Beweise wurden der Justiz übergeben, und die Justiz kam zu dem Schluß dass es keinen Beweis gab diese These zu unterstützen."

Dies habe ich dazu gefunden:

1. Teil der Untersuchung und vorläufiger Abschlußbericht bevor Goncalo Amaral entlassen wurde:

Madeleine starb im Apartment 5A, eine Entführung wurde vorgetäuscht, Kate und Gerry sind am Verbergen der Leiche beteiligt, es wird momentan von einem Unfall ausgegangen.


2. Teil der Untersuchung und Abschlußbericht unter Leitung von Paulo Rebelo:

Aufgrund der nicht zustande gekommenden Rekonstruktion durch die Weigerung zur Teilnahme aller Freunde der McCanns (Tapas 7) konnten folgende entscheidende Punkte nicht geklärt werden:

- Die Konstellation von Jane Tanner, Gerry McCann und Jeremy Wilkins zum Zeitpunkt der Sichtung des angeblichen Entführers. Die Diskrepanzen in den Zeugenaussagen sind ohne eine Rekonstruktion nicht erklärbar.

- der Zustand des Fensters, ob offen oder geschlossen, hätte durch eine Rekonstruktion anhand von Zugluft, Bewegungen der Vorhänge und Druckluft unterhalb der Tür, geklärt werden können und bleibt somit offen.

- die Zeitschiene, in der die Kinder überprüft wurden, die das Eingreifen eines "Entführers" sehr unwahrscheinlich machte, hätte geklärt werden können.

Der Bericht schliesst damit, das es nicht möglich ist eine solide und objektive Schlußfolgerung über das was wirklich in der Nacht passierte zu erhalten.

Daher werden keine weiteren Empfehlung gegeben, zusätzliche Untersuchungen durchzuführen. Die empfohlenen scheiterten an der Weigerung der Tapas 7.


3. Erklärung zur Archivierung des Falles durch die Oberstaatsanwälte José de Magalhães e Menezes und João Melchior Gomes

Gerade das Nichtzustandekommen der Rekonstruktion wird folgendermaßen ausgelegt:

"wir glauben dass der Hauptschaden die Arguidos McCann traf, die die Möglichkeit verloren zu beweisen, was sie seitdem sie Arguidos sind, beschworen haben: Ihre Unschuld an dem tragischen Ereignis; auch die Untersuchung wurde unterbrochen/gestört, weil genannte Fakten ungeklärt bleiben.
Sieht so der Abschluss einer Kriminaluntersuchung aus, die zweifelsfrei die Unschuld festgestellt hat? Ich denke NEIN!

David Payne telefoniert


Am 4. Mai 2007 um 23:15 tätigt David Payne einen 100 Sekunden Anruf an folgende Telefonnummer in England: 0207 230 2061

Meinen Recherchen zufolge handelt es sich hierbei um die Nummer der SO7 Serious and Organised Crime in London, New Scotland Yard. Bei seinem Interview durch die Polizei von Leicestershire war er nicht sehr hilfreich in seinen Antworten bzgl. des Anrufs. Erst nachdem man ihm den Teilnehmer "Crime Specialist Director in London" vorschlug gab er den Anruf zu, wusste aber nichts mehr zum Inhalt zu sagen. Er gab an, diese Nummer von seiner Schwester erhalten zu haben.

Chef dieser Einheit ist Graham McNulty, der die Operation Ainstable leitete, deren Hauptprotagonist, Paul Bennett, zufällig am 14. Juni 2007 am Flughafen von Faro festgenommen werden konnte, nachdem er jahrelang "gesucht" wurde. Alleine die Geschichte, wie Paul Bennett die Briten aufs Kreuz legte, und im Austausch gegen "Waffenverstecke", die er im Gefängnis erst organisierte, nach ein paar Monaten einer über 20-jährigen Haftstrafe freigelassen wurde, gibt Stoff für einen Blockbuster-Mehrteiler.

Dass aber ausgerechnet dieser Paul Bennett, Drogenbaron und schlimmeres, in der Haft vorgab, von einem algerischen Kollegen gehört zu haben, dass der Madeleine für 100.000 Pfund entführt und verkauft habe, würde ein normales Kinopublikum sicher nicht mehr mit einem Oscar würdigen. Zu weit hergeholt für jeden Geschmack.

Was ich damit sagen will? Keine Ahnung, aber wenn man in dieser Geschichte anfängt zu recherchieren, stößt man auf die unglaublichsten Verwicklungen.

McCanns wollen außergerichtliche Einigung


Sie waren es die ihn wegen Verleumdung vor Gericht brachten und die, die darum bitten, das Urteil auszusetzen um zu verhandeln. Am Vorabend des Prozesses von Goncalo Amaral, gegen den sie die Beschwerde eingebracht haben, baten die McCanns um Verhandlungen.

von Hernâni Carvalho

Nicht oft bittet der Kläger um Verhandlungen aber in diesem Fall war es so. TVmais fand heraus, dass der Anwalt der Eheleute McCann, am Vorabend des Prozesses, ein Treffen vorschlug, um eine außergerichtliche Einigung zu erreichen.

In der Klage verlangten die Eltern von Madeleine McCann Schadenersatz über 1,2 Millionen € von Goncalo Amaral wegen angeblicher Verleumdung. Nun sind sie es, die eine außergerichtliche Einigung vorschlagen. TVmais ist auch bekannt, dass die Anwälte der Beklagten ein Treffen innerhalb der nächsten 20 Tage akzeptiert haben.

Da sich beide Seiten einig sind, wurde der Beginn des Prozesses, der für den 24. diesen Monats am 1. Zivilgericht in Lissabon geplant war, ausgesetzt, weil "die Parteien versuchen wollen eine Einigung zu erzielen," wurde der Lusa Nachrichtenagentur aus juristischen Quellen gesagt. Alle Zeugen wurden bereits über die Aussetzung der Anhörung informiert.

Nun folgt ein Zeitraum von sechs Monaten, nach dem die Anhörung geplant und der Prozess starten wird, sollte es zu keiner Einigung kommen.

“Unpassend”

Dieser Prozess hätte schon zweimal anfangen müssen und wurde genauso oft vertagt.

In dieser Klage beanspruchen Kate und Gerry Mccann weiterhin den Schutz von Rechten und Bürgschaften und um den Betrag zu sichern auf den sie klagen, beantragten die McCanns die Beschlagnahmung von Goncalo Amarals Vermögensgütern. Um zu verstehen wie er diesen Schritt der McCanns interpretiert, kontaktierten wir Goncalo Amaral, der TVmais sagte, dass "der Abend jeder Verhandlung der unpassendste Moment ist sich zu äußern". Bis zum Redaktionsschluss dieser Ausgabe war es nicht möglich mit dem Ehepaar McCann zu sprechen.

Angeklagte

Der Prozess findet im 1. Gerichtsbezirk des Zivilgerichts in Lissabon statt. Madeleine McCanns Eltern fordern 1,2 Millionen Euro wegen angeblicher Verleumdung. Angeklagt sind Goncalo Amaral, früherer Koordinator der Policia Judiciara und Autor des Buches "Maddie, die Wahrheit über die Lüge", die Herausgeber des Buches Guerra & Paz, Vanlentim de Carvalho, der die auf dem Buch basierende Dokumentation produzierte und TVI, die diese sendeten.

Buch freigegeben

In einem durch das Ehepaar McCann angestrengten Verfahren wurde ein Verbot des Buches und der Dokumentation "Die Wahrheit über die Lüge", in dem Goncalo Amarals Theorie über die Beteiligung der Eltern am Verschwinden ihrer Tochter und am Verbergen ihrer Leiche dargestellt wird, am 9. September 2009 einstweilig verfügt.

Jedoch entschieden das Berufungsgericht und der Oberste Gerichtshof zu Gunsten von Goncalo Amaral und wiesen die Klage der McCanns  im November 2010 und im September 2011 zurück.

Wie wir zum Zeitpunkt der Gerichtsentscheidungen berichteten, ordneten die Gerichte vom Treuhänder der Bücher [Isabel Duarte] die Herausgabe der Bücher an Goncalo Amaral und den Herausgeber an. Und so geschah es.



in: TVmais, 24.01.2013

und gedruckte Ausgabe



Hênani Carvalho (HC) - Wie Sie wissen, verklagten die McCanns, Madeleines Eltern, Goncalo Amaral wegen Verleumdung. Am Vorabend des Prozesses beantragten sie ein außergerichtliches Treffen mit den einzelnen Beklagten. Wie sie wissen, sind die Beklagten der koordinierende Inspektor Goncalo Amaral, TVI, Valentim de Carvalho und Guerra & Paz. Sie beantragten ein außergerichtliches Treffen. Ich schrieb darüber diese Woche in TVmais.

Júlia Pinheiro (JP) - Die Ausgabe ist heute an den Zeitungsständen.

HC - Genau. Außergerichtliche Treffen kurz vor den Prozessen gibt es häufig, aber normalerweise sind es die Beklagten, die dies anstreben.

JP - Die Beklagten, richtig?

HC - ... eine außergerichtliche Lösung.

JP - Nicht derjenige, der anklagt [Kläger], richtig?

HC - Warten wir ab, ob dieses Treffen zu irgendetwas führt, wenn nicht, zumindest hat es dann etwas Zeit erkauft, wem auch immer.

JP - Also was denken Sie? Ist dies eine Verzögerungstaktik? Um Zeit zu gewinnen?

HC - Bis jetzt wurde der Beginn des Prozesses schon zwei oder dreimal vertagt. Die Tatsache, dass alle Parteien zugestimmt haben [dem außergerichtlichen Treffen beantragt von den McCanns] veranlasste den Richter, dem Aussetzen des Prozesses zuzustimmen, daher wird alles in sechs Monaten entweder mit einer außergerichtlichen Einigung oder mit einem Prozess wieder beginnen.

JP - Unglücklicherweise, ohne dass man irgendetwas über Maddie McCann weiß. Dieser Punkt geht nicht voran, bewegt sich nicht mehr vorwärts.

HC - Darüber wissen wir, dass sie aus Praia da Luz verschwand in besagter Nacht aus dem Apartment.

JP - Und sie wurde nie wieder gesehen. Weiter mit....

HC - Sie wurde mehrfach gesehen.

JP - Ich habe schon länger nichts mehr über Sichtungen gehört.

HC - Es gab eine, vor ein paar Tagen erst "erschien" sie. [ref. Brazilian Hoax/Daily Express].

JP - Echt?

HC - Ja, aber ich habe genug von dem Zirkus.

Dies schrieben die Unterstützer der Eltern (oder sie selbst im blog writing-the-wrongs) noch im Oktover letzten Jahres und ich kann ihnen ohne Vorbehalte zustimmen:

The libel case brought by Mr and Mrs McCann against Snr Amaral for libel has, it seems, stirred all of his supporters on the internet into something of a frenzy of anticipation. They seem to look forward, with ill-concealed glee, to certain imaginary aspects of the case being revealed in the British press that they mistakenly believe the couple would rather not be made public. It is, naturally, total nonsense. There are no skeletons in the McCanns’ closet waiting to fall, because they have acted with complete dignity and grace from the beginning, and have been completely truthful from day one. If they had not, who in their right minds would think their solicitor would allow them to put themselves in such an exposed position in the first place?

Wenn sie nicht immer die volle Wahrheit gesagt hätten, welcher Anwalt wäre so verrückt, Ihnen zu erlauben, sich in so eine exponierte Position wie einen Gerichtssaal zu begeben....

Brazil, Ibiza, Whatever....

The Express and his James Murray impressed yesterday with yet another marvellous piece of investigative journalism.

Sunday January 20,2013

By James Murray

DETECTIVES have been given a photo which appears to show Madeleine McCann with an abductor.



The Sunday Express was passed the picture independently but Scotland Yard appealed to us not to publish it while it continues sensitive global investigations into the missing girl.
Officers were happy for us to describe the potentially key evidence which shows a healthy fair-haired girl aged three or four in pink trousers, a green top and a blue hat.
The child is walking along a road, possibly near a port or airport as there are many people with suitcases in the area. It is sunny with a palm tree in the background.

ì
This is a matter for Scotland Yard and I am sure they will get to the bottom of it. Kate and Gerry have confidence in Operation Grange.
î
Clarence Mitchell, spokesman for the McCanns

The photograph was allegedly taken in Brazil in June 2007, a month after Madeleine, three, was snatched from a holiday apartment in Praia da Luz on Portugal’s Algarve coast.
The girl is holding the hand of a swarthy foreign-looking man aged about 50 with long dark hair and a beard. He is wearing cut-off jeans and a green T-shirt.
Nearby, another man in checked shorts and a black T-shirt is pulling a red suitcase. There is no sign of a woman and the child looks out of place with the older men.
If the picture is genuine, it would be the biggest breakthrough in the case to date.
A Portuguese speaking man living in Brazil forwarded the photo to a detective on Operation Grange, the Yard squad trying to find Madeleine by reviewing thousands of documents.
..........
The Yard may send the picture to FBI imaging experts in America for an opinion.
This week the Yard is expected to ask detectives in Brazil to interview the man before considering whether to fly him to London.

Today Reggie Dunlop, a man living his dreams, did an even more investigative research than the great James Murray and unveiled the above mentioned photograph and the corresponding article:



Original News used by the EXPRESS for latest hoax

An excusable mistake by good old James. Brazil and Ibiza are only distinguishable from each other by the "R".
Sorry Scotland Yard, James and Clarence and thank you Reggie. Back to square one.

Lie strong campaign

Are yellow wristbands doomed?


Auszüge aus dem Bericht der PJ



Hier einmal übersetzt (portugiesisch -> englisch -> deutsch) ein Auszug aus dem sehr umfangreichen Schlussbericht von Chief Inspector Tavares de Almeida an den Koordinator der kriminaltechnischen Untersuchung vom 10.09.07, in dem er zusammenfasst, dass nachdem alle zusammengestellten Beweise analysiert wurden, es festgestellt wird, dass das Kind tot ist und die Eltern verantwortlich waren für das Verbergen des Leichnams und das die gesamte Gruppe gelogen hat seit dem ersten Tag der Untersuchungen.



10 September 2007

(Processo: VOL ,X, p. 2587-2602)




.....

A) Die minderjährige Madeleine McCann starb im Apartment 5A des Ocean Club Resort in der Nacht vom 3. Mai 2007;



B) Eine Entführung wurde vorgetäuscht;



C) Um zu vermeiden, dass der Tod [Alarm] der Minderjährigen vor 22:00 Uhr bekannt wurde, wurde eine Überwachungssituation der Kinder durch die McCanns erzeugt, während die Kinder schliefen;



D) Gerald McCann und Kate McCann sind am Verbergen der Leiche ihres Kindes Madeleine McCann beteiligt;



E) Im Moment, scheint es keine starken Indizien zu geben, dass der Tod der Minderjährigen nicht durch einen tragischen Unfall erfolgte;



F) Von dem, was wir bis jetzt wissen, weist alles darauf hin, dass die McCanns, zur Selbstverteidigung, die Leiche nicht sofort und freiwillig preisgeben wollten; Es existiert der starke Verdacht, dass sie (die Leiche) vom ursprünglichen Ort der Lagerung transportiert wurde. Diese Situation wirft Fragen über die Umstände, unter denen der Tod der Minderjährigen aufgetreten ist, auf.





Eine Aufzählung der Orte an denen die renommierten Polizeihunde Eddie und Keela sowohl Leichengeruch als auch Blut festgestellt hatten, und auf deren Alarm sich die obige Schlussfolgerung teilweise stützt, ist dem Bericht ebenfalls beigefügt:




1. Appartement 5 A, Ocean Club Resort, der Ort von dem das Kind verschwand
1.1. Leichenspürhund
• Elternschlafzimmer, in einer Ecke, vor dem Kleiderschrank
• Wohnzimmer, hinter dem Sofa, am seitlichen Fenster
1.2. Bluthund:
• Wohnzimmer hinter dem Sofa, in der Nähe des seitlichen Fensters (an gleicher Stelle wie der Leichenspürhund);

2. Garten vor der Wohnung 5A
2.1. Leichenspürhund
• Blumenbeet (der Hundeführer kommentiert die "Leichtigkeit" des Geruchs)

3. Wohnungen, wo der Rest der Gruppe bleiben
• Es wurde NICHTS von den Hunden entdeckt

4. Am derzeitigen Wohnsitz der McCann (gemietete Villa)
• Es wurde NICHTS im Haus durch die Hunde festgestellt

5. In Aldeia da Luz
Es wurde NICHTS von den Hunden entdeckt6. Kleidung und Gegenstände der Familie McCann
6.1. Leichenspürhund:
• 2 Stück der Kleidung von Kate McCann
• Ein Stück von Madeleine McCann
• Madeleine's Plüschtier
• Der Geruch wurde festgestellt, als das Spielzeug noch im Innern des momentanen Wohnsitzes des McCann war.
• Der Geruch wurde auch ausserhalb des Hauses bestätigt

7. Fahrzeuge, die von der McCann-Familie benutzt wurden
7.1. Leichenspürhund:
• Markierte den Schlüssel des Autos
• Markiert das Innere der Kabine
7.2. Bluthund
• Markiert den Autoschlüssel
• Markiert das Innere der Kabine

8. Auto von einem Freund der Familie, der sich in der gleichen Anlage, an einigen der gleichen Tagen aufhielt
• Nichts wurde von den Hunden entdeckt.

9. Alle Autos, von Arguido Robert Murat und den Menschen, die in seiner Nähe waren.

Russell O'Liar 2

Deutsch/English

Eine Änderung in der Aussage Russells verdient meiner Meinung nach besondere Aufmerksamkeit:


Original: The Nannies had brought the children up for readiness for tea, I can’t say if I saw Madeleine when E came back’
Geändert: I collected E*** from the Ocean Club before she went up to tea at the Tapas Bar, I cannot say whether Madeleine was there or not.


In seiner ersten Aussage beschreibt er wie die Nannies die Kinder, inklusive seiner Tochter Exxx, am Nachmittag des 3. Mai vom Kinderclub zum Tapas Restaurant brachten. Dies geschah normalerweise gegen 16:45 und anschliessend gab es zwischen 17:00 und 17:30 Abendessen dort für die Kinder. Sein Focus in der ersten Aussage liegt darauf, zu erklären, dass er Madeleine dabei nicht gesehen hat. Dabei "vergisst" er, dass er lt. Plan gar nicht dabei war. Der Plan besagte, dass er Exxx bereits bevor die Kinder den Kinderclub verlassen hatten, von dort abgeholt hatte, und dass sie daher NICHT am Abendessen teilnahm.

Dummerweise gibt er bei der Schilderung des Nachmittags aber an, dass er erst gegen 16:30 vom Segeln an den Strand kam und dann noch im Meer schwimmen ging. Er kann also kaum Exxx noch vor 16:45 im Kinderclub abgeholt haben.

Das Alibi für den Nachmittag besteht zum Teil aus der Aufzeichnung der Überwachungskamera im Restaurant Paraiso am Strand, wo die ganze Gruppe ausser den McCanns für Drinks zusammenkam und um den Kindern etwas zum Abendessen zu servieren. Wie aus den Aufzeichnungen zu sehen ist, erscheint Russell aber erst um 17:52 das erste mal in diesem Restaurant.

Wie viel wahrscheinlicher ist daher die Annahme, dass er sehr wohl zum Abendessen der Kinder im Tapas Restaurant war, zusammen mit Kate, Gerry, den Zwillingen und Exxx? Beim Verlassen der Tapas Rezeption gegen 17:30 wurde 'Madeleine' aus der Anwesenheitsliste des Kinderclubs ausgetragen, während Exxxs Eintrag leer blieb und später von der Nanny nachträglich ausgefüllt wurde. Die Köchin erinnerte sich später an die nette Familie mit den Zwillingen und der älteren Tochter. Exxx sah Madeleine von allen Kindern am ähnlichsten, war gleich alt und gleich groß. Hatten die Freunde daher so vehement protestiert, dass es nicht Russell O'Brien mit Madeleine war, der den Tisch im Tapas Restaurant gebucht hatte, wie es die Rezeptionistin aussagte? Weil es eigentlich Russell mit Exxx war und die Ähnlichkeit verschwiegen werden musste?

Jedenfalls hatte Russell dann genug Zeit um zwischen 17:30 und 17:52 im Paraiso zu erscheinen und sich der Kamera dort zu präsentieren. Und vielleicht noch mit seiner Tochter auf den Schultern ein Tänzchen zu wagen, was später vom Besitzer des Restaurants falsch an die Zeitungen verkauft wurde. Damit bereits die dritte Verwechslung der beiden Mädchen.

Dies ist eine Theorie, die sich aus den Diskrepanzen und Änderungen der Aussagen ergibt und versucht diese zu interpretieren. Hätte es diese umfassenden Diskrepanzen und Änderungen nicht oder nur in minimalem Umfang gegeben, bestünde keine Notwendigkeit, diese zu erklären.

------------------------------------------------------

One of the changes in Russell's statement deserves special attention in my opinion:

Original: The Nannies had brought the children up for readiness for tea, I can’t say if I saw Madeleine when E came back’
Geändert: I collected E*** from the Ocean Club before she went up to tea at the Tapas Bar, I cannot say whether Madeleine was there or not.

In his first statement he describes how the nannies brought the children, including his daughter Exxx, from the kid's club to the Tapas restaurant in the afternoon of May 3rd. This usually happened around 16:45 followed by the children's dinner in the Tapas between 17:00 and 17:30. In this first statement his focus is to explain that he did not see Madeleine when the children were brought back. In doing so he "forgets" that according to their original statements he had never been there. All previous statements claim that he had already collected Exxx before the children had left the children's club and that she therefore did NOT take part at the children's dinner.

Unfortunately though while depicting the afternoon he had claimed that he only arrived back at the beach from his sailing trip at 16:30 and then had gone for a swim in the ocean. Almost impossible for him to have collected Exxx before 16:45 from the kid's club.

The alibi for the afternoon consists partly in the recording of the CCTV camera in the Paraiso beach restaurant where the whole group apart from the McCanns had drinks together and served their children dinner. But as can be seen from the recordings, Russell is seen for the first time at 17:52 in this restaurant.

How much more likely is the assumption that he actually did take part in the children's dinner at the Tapas restaurant together with Kate the twins and Exxx? That when they left the Tapas reception around 17:30 'Madeleine' was signed out on the creche list of the kid's club, while Exxx's entry stayed empty and was later filled out by the nanny? The cook later remembered the nice family with the twins and the older daughter. Exxx resembled Madeleine most from all the other kids, same age and height. Was this the reason for the protest when the receptionist stated that Russell O'Brien together with Madeleine had booked the Tapas table? Because in fact it had been Russell with Exxx and the similarity had to be covered-up?

In any case Russell had enough time to arrive at the Paraiso between 17:30 and 17:52 in front of the CCTV camera. And possibly had a little dance with Exxx on his shoulders as wrongly attributed to Gerry by the owner of the restaurant when he sold this story to the media. This was already the third mix-up between the two girls.

This is a theory that results from the discrepancies and changes in the statement and that tries to interpret these. Had there not been such extensive discrepancies and changes there would be no necessity to try and explain them.

Celebrations

english/deutsch

This month sees the celebration of a Saint's day on November 25th. In France and other countries it is a custom to wear yellow-green ribbons in honor of the Saint. Yellow-green as in the wristbands that have so successfully been sold in a certain online shop to commemorate the disappearance of a little girl five years ago.

I am going to do a little online survey about what Saint you think is honored by wearing yellow-green ribbons:

A Saint Madeleine
B Saint Catherine

your answers via twitter please, if it is still a surprise for you.


-----------------------------------------


Feierlichkeiten

In diesem Monat wird am 25. November eine bestimmte Heilige gefeiert. In Frankreich und anderen Ländern ist es Brauch zu Ehren der Heiligen gelb-grüne Bänder zu tragen. Gelb-grün wie die Armbänder, die so erfolgreich in einem bestimmten Online Shop verkauft wurden zum Andenken an das Verschwinden eines kleinen Mädchens vor fünf Jahren.

Ich werde eine kleine Online Abfrage durchführen, was ihr denkt, welche Heilige durch das Tragen von gelb-grünen Bändern geehrt wird:

A Heilige Madeleine
B Heilige Katharina

eure Antworten bitte über Twitter, wenn es noch Irgendjemanden überrascht.

Dog's don't lie....in the US (Update)

Martin Grime on the witness stand at Bianca Jones's murder trial.

Prosecutors say dog's detection of human decomposition points to murder of Bianca Jones




Yet Gerry McCann, expert on dogs, finds them compleeeetely unreLIEable.... ..... although Eddie gave a positive response to Kate's clothes


-----------------------

UPDATE

D'Andre Lane found guilty of murder in death of daughter Bianca Jones

Dogs don't lie..... in Wales

Apparently they only lied in Portugal. Btw: Why is April Jones declared as having been murdered after 5 days yet Madeleine McCann is still "alive and findable" after 5 years, despite the overwhelming evidence of the cadaver dogs finding scent at 9 different places/items?

The Gaspar Scare



English/Deutsch

The only mention of the Gaspar Statement in the media
Having come across my spreadsheet with the timeline of the whole case and filling in some bits and pieces today, I noticed something regarding the Gaspar statement I find odd.

I was always undecided about whether it was genuine concern of a friend of Kate's or an attempt to get David Payne in line with the cover-up. Now if we look at the timeline we first noticed the quite long delay for Katharina Gaspar to decide going to the police. Almost two weeks in the case of a missing child seems a long time but was explained by the fact that she did not know until then that DP had been on the trip as well. Nevertheless, if we consider the described incident properly, Gerry McCann was as much part of the scenario as DP and therefore it should not have mattered to her much if DP was with them on holiday or not. Gerry's reaction to the alleged Payne incident would have warranted the same concerns even if he had been alone in PdL. Just remember how very cleverly DP had always been brought into the focus of the Gaspar statement and not so much Gerry, even from us...

Now if we look at the date Katharina finally dragged herself to the police station we see that it was the 16th May, exactly one day after Robert Murat was pictured on every paper in Britain as the most probable perpetrator.

If you are considering going to the police in a case you are not sure about, waiting 13 days until you muster up the courage, would you not hold back a couple of days more when you find out that they found the alleged abductor not connected to your suspicion at all? You would save yourself the trouble of a false accusation if he turned out the one who had taken Maddie.

Or did it rather take 6 days of organising and convincing of the Gaspars to get them to the police station after the botched 2nd questioning on May 10th of Gerry McCann at the police station where he felt the need to throw in David Payne with two concocted sightings of Madeleine, one during Wednesday night (!) and one on Thursday around 18:30. IMO two sightings he just made up during the interview because he had been pushed into a corner or felt the need to confirm Maddie's presence at those two points in time.

Imagine David's reaction when he told him about it, he might not have been amused...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nachdem ich heute meine Tabelle mit der Zeitschiene des Falls ein wenig auf Vordermann gebracht habe, ist mir etwas in Bezug zur Gaspar Aussage aufgefallen, dass ich merkwürdig finde.

Ich war mir nie sicher ob diese Aussage ernsthafter Sorge einer Freundin von Kate entsprang oder ein Versuch war, Druck auf David Payne auszuüben, der vielleicht nicht länger mitspielen wollte. Wenn man sich nun die Zeitschiene ansieht fällt einem als erstes die recht lange Zeitspanne auf, die Katharina Gaspar brauchte, um zur Polizei zu gehen. Fast zwei Wochen im Fall des verschwundenen Kindes einer Freundin scheinen eine lange Zeit zu sein, wurden aber damit erklärt, dass sie zuerst nicht wusste, ob DP überhaupt an dem Urlaub in Portugal teilgenommen hätte. Wenn man sich aber den geschilderten Vorfall genauer ansieht war Gerry McCann genauso Teil des Szenarios wie DP und daher hätte es für sie keine Rolle spielen dürfen ob DP mit in diesem Urlaub war oder nicht. Alleine die Tatsache wie Gerry auf die angeblichen Gesten reagierte sollte ihre Bedenken gerechtfertigt haben, auch wenn er alleine in Praia da Luz gewesen wäre. Man erinnere sich nur wie geschickt immer nur DP im Fokus der Gaspar Aussage stand und nie Gerry, sogar durch uns...

Wenn wir nun auf das Datum schauen, an dem Katharina sich endlich dazu aufraffte, die Polizei zu kontaktieren, sehen wir, dass es am 16. Mai war, genau einen Tag nachdem Robert Murat auf jeder Titelseite Englands als höchstwahrscheinlicher Täter publiziert worden war.

Wenn man sich mit dem Gedanken trägt zur Polizei zu gehen, in einem Fall in dem man nicht 100% sicher ist und damit 13 Tage wartet bis man sich ein Herz fasst, würde man dann nicht noch ein paar Tage mehr warten, wenn der angebliche Entführer plötzlich feststeht und nichts mit dem zu tun hat, was du der Polizei berichten willst? Man würde sich evtl. den Ärger einer falschen Beschuldigung ersparen, wenn er sich als der Entführer herausstellte.


Oder dauerte es eher 6 Tage der Planung und Überzeugungsarbeit um die Gaspars dazu zu bewegen zur Polizei zu gehen? 6 Tage nach der sehr unbequemen zweiten Befragung von Gerry McCann am 10. May durch die Polizei in Portimao wo er die Notwendigkeit sah, David Payne mit zwei angeblichen Sichtungen von Maddie ins kalte Wasser zu werfen - eine während der Nacht von Mittwoch auf Donnerstag und eine am Donnerstag gegen 18:30. M.M.n. zwei Sichtungen die Gerry ad hoc aus dem Hut zauberte während seiner Befragung entweder weil er in eine Ecke gedrängt wurde oder die Notwendigkeit sah Maddie's Präsenz zu diesen beiden Zeitpunkten zu bestätigen.

Stellt euch Davids Reaktion vor, als er ihm davon erzählte - er wird nicht erfreut gewesen sein...


Freitag, 20. Juli 2012



Ever noticed when the "clever marketing ploy" of the photografically enhanced "coloboma" that might have resulted in the removal of the eye by the abductor was abandoned? Nowhere to be seen again, replaced by a pathetic yellow-green ribbon.

Schon wieder Hunde...

Deutsch/Englisch

Ja ich weiß, in gewissen Kreisen hört man das Wort "Hund" nicht gerne, und "Spürhund" schon gar nicht. Wir wissen nun alle, dass Eddie und Keela unglaublich zuverlässig waren. Oder war es unzuverlässig? Ich werde noch einmal Gerry konsultieren müssen...

Jedenfalls kamen bisher Timmy, Sacha, Kolly, Oscar, Rusco und Rex viel zu kurz. Die portugiesischen Spürhunde, die am frühen Morgen des 4. Mai bereits angestrengt bei ihrer Arbeit waren, kommen sich im Schatten des großen Eddie und der hervorragenden Keela vielleicht wie arme unbeachtete Verwandte vor. Daher soll auch ihnen ein Kapitel gewidmet werden.

Besonders Timmy hatte seiner Rasse Ehre gemacht als ihm gegen 23:00 Uhr am 4. Mai vor dem Eingang zum Apartment 5A ein Badehandtuch von Madeleine präsentiert wurde. Vom Eingang des Apartments aus erschnupperte er sich den folgenden Weg, der von einem zweiten Spürhund anschliessend bestätigt wurde:


An der dort platzierten Straßenlampe schnüffelte er kurz, machte kehrt und ging den Weg wieder zurück.



Ich hatte schon länger die Vermutung gehegt, dass dieser Weg im ursprünglichen Plan vorgesehen war, denn dies war wirklich der Weg zum Kinderhort, zumindest eine "Abkürzung" auf kleinen dunklen Pfaden. Das Tragen eines schlafenden Kindes würde hier wohl nicht auffallen. Aber scheinbar brach der mögliche Träger seinen Weg genau an der Laterne ab.
Vielleicht weil auf dem Balkon von G606 die Herren Rajinder Balu und Neill Berry mit ihren Ehefrauen zu Abend aßen. Beide hätten wahrscheinlich den Träger vom Kinderclub her gekannt. Panikartiger Rückzug, wieder in das Gärtchen vor 5A.

So viel Pech gehört verboten. Dem Träger war sicher hundeelend...

--------------------------------------------------------

Dogs yet again...

Yes I know, the word "dog" is not appreciated in certain circles and "snifferdogs" is definitely not politically correct. We all know that Eddie and Keela were incredibly reliable. Or was it unreliable? I will have to consult Gerry again...

In any case, until now Timmy, Sacha, Kolly, Oscar, Rusco and Rex have been criminally neglected. The portuguese sniffer dogs who had been busy at work on the early morning of the 4th May probably feel like unloved relatives overshadowed by the great Eddie and the excellent Keela. Therefore I felt they needed their own chapter.

Especially Timmy did his breed some credit when he was presented at 23:00 on the 4th May in front of apartment 5A with a bath towel belonging to Madeleine. Starting at the entrance to 5A he sniffed out the following path: (see above)

At the only streetlamp placed in that carpark he sniffed more attentively, turned around and went back the way he had come.

I had previously suspected that the walk to the beach had been originally planned along the "shortcut" to the creche, following little dark lanes. Carrying a sleeping child would not have been unusual on that route. But the carrier apparently stopped his walk exactly at the lantern. Possibly because up on the balcony of 4G the families of Rajinder Balu and Neill Berry were dining together. Both might have recognised the carrier from earlier encounters at the kid's club. Panic, Retreat, back to the little gardin in front of 5A.

So much bad luck should be forbidden. The carrier was surely feeling sick as a dog...

EXCLUSIVE - 195 Leads revealed!!!

An independent investigation team consisting of an undisclosed number of case file analysts and interpreters, working for a pat on the back, have compiled what must surely be resembling much of the as yet undisclosed list of 195 leads painstakingly produced from a mass of evidence by the Scotland Yard investigation team.

After a careful review of all the evidence from the Portuguese police files and of course omitting spurious sightings, reports from mediums and clairvoyants, we finally came to the same conclusion as the highly paid SY team in that there is a 110% probability that Madeleine is either dead or alive, each possibility ranging around the 50% marker. We can also confirm that the theory of the parents' involvement is as much a conspiracy theory as the following list. We are convinced that the person who took Madeleine from the apartment, as seen by an Irish family of 7, is a criminal and should be treated as such. ASAP!

We therefore demand that the Portuguese plods pick up the investigation again where they dropped it in 2008 and start to investigate each of the 195 leads as regards to their possible significance. Or else campaigns will be started to urge people to refrain from ever listening to Fado again.

SMITH SIGHTING


31 A family of 7 encounter a man carrying a child while going home from a pub at 22:00 on May 3rd.
32 The child is of Madeleine's age and height and resembles Madeleine
33 The man is of the same height, has the same hair and general appearance of Gerry McCann
34 Mr Smith is 60-80 % certain that the person they saw was Gerry McCann
35 Aoife Smith describes the pants of the man as having buttons as ornaments
36 Gerry McCann is photographed once as owning such pants
37 The time of the encounter is the exact same time as the alleged detection of the disappearance although latter is not corroborated by independent witnesses
38 The sighting - although reported once in an irish paper - is never picked up by british media or the McCanns although it would have been the best confirmation for an abduction.
39 Only two years later the Smith sighting becomes part of their "documentary" although the key points get changed to fit the Tanner sighting
40 Pressure put on the PJ to highlight the Tanner sighting came at exactly the same time as the Smith family were being brought back to Portugal to go over the sighting in more detail
41 The sighting was in a different part of town from the Tanner sighting
42 The carrying style was completely different to that of the Tanner sighting
43 The man was heading in a completely different direction from the Tanner sighting
44 There was a time difference of 45 minutes between both sightings
45 Goncalo Amaral was removed from the case just when he tried to get the Smiths to Portugal again
46 Brian Kennedy contacted the Smiths to get them to take part in creating a photofit.
47 No innocent person ever came forward regarding the sighting
48 The child was carried without a blanket despite the cold night

JANE TANNER SIGHTING

49 Regarding the sighting by Jane Tanner of the abductor none of the scent tracking dogs followed the trail indicated by Jane, but different routes
50 Jeremy Wilkins (independent witness) failed to spot the abductor, despite being only yards away, while chatting to Gerry
51 Jeremy Wilkins (independent witness) failed to see Jane Tanner walking by, despite being on the same narrow sidewalk at the same time
52 Gerry McCann failed to spot the abductor, despite being only yards away, while chatting to Jeremy
53 Gerry contradicted Jeremy by stating that their chat was on the opposite side of and about 30 yards down the road from that as described, and drawn on a map, by Mr Wilkins
54 Gerry also contradicted Tanner, by stating that his chat with Jeremy was on the opposite side of and about 30 yards down the road from that mentioned by Jane
55 Jane failed to spot the open window and shutters at Madeleine's bedroom while walking to her apartment at ~21.15
56 Jane failed to spot the open window and shutters at Madeleine's bedroom while walking from her apartment at ~21.20
57 Jane never bumped into Jeremy Wilkins (who had walked back to his apartment after the chat with Gerry) while walking back from her apartment at ~21.20
58 Russell O'Brien failed to spot the open window and shutters at Madeleine's bedroom while walking to his apartment at ~21.30
59 Matthew Oldfield failed to spot the open window and shutters at Madeleine's bedroom while walking to his apartment, which was right next door, at ~21.30
60 Matthew failed to spot the open window and shutters at Madeleine's bedroom while walking back from his apartment back to check on the McCann children
61 Matthew failed to spot the open window and shutters while checking on Madeleine and the twins
62 Jane failed to spot the open window and shutters at Madeleine's bedroom while walking to her apartment at ~21.45
63 Russell failed to spot the open window and shutters at Madeleine's bedroom while walking back from his apartment at ~21.50
64 Tanner's description of the abductor has changed several times
65 Tanner's description of the pyjama's worn by the child has improved with time
66 Gerry did not hear the raising of the shutters by the abductor while standing in the street with Wilkins
67 Jeremy Wilkins did not hear the raising of the shutters by the abductor while standing in the street with Gerry
68 The abductor failed to hear either Tanner, Gerry or Wilkins, and continued on the path that would put him in the full vision of all three
69 If the abductor had lifted Madeleine out of the bed, then he would be carrying her with her head to his right hand side, not on the left as in Tanner's claimed sighting
70 Although Gerry checked all rooms in the apartment during his check he did not spot the hiding abductor
71 The abductor did not raise the shutters while Gerry was inside the apartment
72 Jane was not only not seen by Gerry and Jeremy but also not heard although she was wearing flip-flops
73 Nobody ever mentioned the cars in the road but independent witnesses spoke of at least 2 cars parked close to the pavement where Gerry and Jez were standing, narrowing Jane's path so much that it was impossible she was not noticed by the two men.
74 Jane does not inform the parents of her sighting immediately. Only some of the friends
75 Although the friends know of her sighting their searches are directed in the opposite direction of where the abductor headed to.

GEORGE BROOKS SIGHTING

76 A George Brooks saw a couple at 5:55 on the morning of May 4th on his way between Lagos and Praia da Luz
77 The man was carrying a child
78 At this time the McCanns had left the apartment and were somewhere in the vicinity of Praia da Luz
79 They had left the apartment around 5:00 when the police and all search groups had left the area
80 They were never asked where exactly they had gone
81 Kate claimed in her book they "resumed" their search that early morning although they never went searching the night before
82 The night before Gerry was overheard on his mobile talking about a gang of paedophiles having abducted Madeleine
83 The next day around 9:30 Kate claimed in a conversation with Yvonne Martin, a social worker, that Madeleine had been abducted by a childless couple

LAST TIME SEEN

84 In their statements the friends of the McCanns have difficulty to pinpoint the last time they saw Madeleine
85 Dianne Webster, whose statements are the only consistent ones, states she saw Madeleine on the 2nd May for the last time.
86 Kate McCann claims in her book that the 2nd May was the last happy day as a family of four. What about the 3rd?
87 The creche sheets are a mess, partly filled out by the nannies in retrospect, partly not at all. No credible evidence for the whereabouts of Madeleine
88 There are no reports about the creche activity in Madeleine's group for the afternoon of May 3rd
89 There are strong discrepancies regarding the morning activity of sailing undertaken by the creche
90 The nanny does not remember if she accompanied 5 (without Madeleine) or 6 (with Madeleine) children to the beach that morning
91 Whereas her first recollections are vague they improve one year later when she recollects an incident on one of the boats where Madeleine was crying.
92 The nanny could only have entered a boat with Madeleine by leaving 3 remaining children alone on the beach
93 Initially some of the friends claimed that Madeleine had taken part in the children's tennis on the morning of the 3rd
94 Madeleine and Ella were allegedly sailing while their parents and friends watched unknown children playing tennis on the court
95 Kate went back to the apartment on Tuesday to fetch her camera for the tennis court photo of Madeleine but never bothered to even watch her sailing
96 Even in 2008 Rachael Oldfield still claimed that Madeleine had been at the tennis on the morning of the 3rd
97 While Jane claims to have seen Madeleine at the sailing, Kate now states in her book that Fiona was unsure wether Madeleine had been at the sailing

CHANGES IN ROUTINE


98 Changes in the holiday routine mark May 3rd as a special day
99 While the McCanns claimed they had only ever attended breakfast once on the Sunday, six employees of the Millenium restaurant stated that they had attended regularly. Did they skip breakfast only on the 3rd?
100 Lunch was usually taken in the Payne's apartment with the whole group, but not on May 3rd
101 The whole group apart from the McCanns went to the beach that afternoon - and did not see Madeleine
102 The whole group apart from the McCanns did not attend the usual children's dinner on May 3rd - and did not see Madeleine there
103 The McCanns did not take part in the get together on the children's playground on May 3rd - so Madeleine was not seen by the rest of the group
104 Russell O'Brien collected his daughter from the creche before the children's dinner - but failed to notice if Madeleine was there or not

149 They NEVER went anywhere near a country a sighting happened, instead went to different countries to promote the SEARCH
150 The India sighting was never confirmed by police

154 Gerry caught on camera laughing his head off only a few days after his daughter had been 'abducted by paedophiles' as claimed by the parents
155 Kate refused to answer 48 questions
156 Despite the possibility that Madeleine's disappearance could have been an inside job the twins were placed in the creche the next day
157 Despite the proximity of the apartment to the Tapas restaurant Kate left the twins alone to alert the friends and Gerry instead of shouting from the balcony
158 As soon as Mark Harrison organised the search with the british dogs the McCanns started trips to a triangle between Budens, Raposeira and Sagres
159 Kate checked the breathing of the twins during the night of May 3rd
160 The twins never woke up during the police search despite many people entering their bedroom
161 The only people having allegedly seen Murat around the apartment on the night of May 3rd were Fiona Payne, Russell O'Brien, Rachael Oldfield and possibly Jane Tanner
162 Nobody who knew Robert Murat saw him that night around the apartment
163 Robert Murat translated the statements of the nannies and of Dianne Webster, most crucial statements regarding the whereabouts of Madeleine on May 3rd
164 Mrs Fenn heard Madeleine crying for 1 hour and 15 minutes on May 1st
165 One child threw a tantrum on May 2nd on the playground and had to be carried home. At the same time the McCanns claim Madeleine claimed to have cried.

167 Kate McCann was alone in the apartment at 20:15 on May 2nd getting the children to sleep while her husband was already at the Tapas restaurant
168 Kate McCann left the restaurant 5 minutes after Gerry on May 2nd
169 Gerry uttered in a spanish interview that their persecution had been bad, but not as bad as the "night we found her"
170 Madeleine's bed, that had been made on Wednesday morning for the last time, looked very neat Thursday night
171 Although they claimed that they had no buggy for the trip to the Millenium breakfast they had buggies for the trip to the beach on Tuesday
172 Although they claimed that the trip to the beach happened on Tuesday, the creche records clearly suggest it happened on Monday
173 If there had been a 1 nanny for 3 children ratio as the McCanns claimed, why did Catriona Baker lead 5 OR 6 children alone to the beach?
174 Why had Madeleine a "sunburn" on her right arm as shown in the tennis picture?
175 Russell O'Brien claimed to have collected his daughter from the creche before 16:45 but also stated that he finished sailing at 16:30 and then went for a swim

181 Gerry McCann was not in the apartment when Dianne Webster entered it for the first time after the abduction possibly at the time of the Smith sighting
182 Kate McCann claims in her book that Gerry was searching together with David Payne at that time but their witness statements say otherwise
183 The time of the first alarm given by Kate was never confirmed by independent witnesses. Statements suggest the alarm had been raised around 21:45
184 There was a Junior Group (6-10 year olds) in the same room above the reception that never got a mention
185 This explains the statement by one nanny that Madeleine had mainly played with the older children.
186 The nannies were transfered to Greece on May 13th and were no longer available to the police
187 One nanny was invited by the McCanns into their home before the rogatory interviews
188 The same nanny got a new job afterwards and her whereabouts were withheld on the request of the McCanns according to the media
189 Research shows that this nanny is now working for a multimillionaire in Manhattan
190 The McCanns used the media to introduce changes in their story
191 e.g. the additional baby monitor of Jane Tanner entered the story through a briefing by Gerry McCann given David James Smith of The Times
192 Charlotte Pennington allegedly remembered Robert Murat being in the vicinity of 5A after a visit by Metodo3 7 months after the disappearance
193 Two other witnesses remember Murat as well after 7 months
