Investigation – What the PJ inspectors wanted to know
When she became an arguida, Kate stopped talking to the inspectors
September 7, 2007. Kate McCann entered the Polícia Judiciária in Portimão in the morning and the questioning extended into the evening. She was heard as a witness, but the tension in the air was evident. For the first time, people were concentrated at the PJ building’s door and murmured words of mistrust regarding the couple.
On that day, CM had reported that the dogs had detected cadaver odour on Maddie’s mother’s clothes. A piece of evidence that the authorities intended to use as a trump, during a questioning that only changed course on the next day, after the PJ failed to see their doubts clarified.
Kate began by replying all the questions, but when she was made an arguida, she stopped talking. She went silent, in the company of her lawyer, and accepted all the insinuations in a provocative manner. Less than 48 hours later, Kate and Gerry travel to England with the twins, leaving the investigation into the disappearance of their daughter, who meanwhile had become four, behind.
They later guaranteed that they would return if necessary – which they never did, although they were never formally requested to return – and they are no longer arguidos for the suspected involvement in concealing the child’s body. Today, CM reveals the 48 questions that Kate did not want to answer during the interrogation and which reflect the investigators’ doubts. More than a year after Maddie disappeared, many of these questions remain unanswered.
Jeers for the McCann couple
The day that Kate and Gerry went to the PJ’s offices in Portimão marked a turnaround in the relationship between the local people and the couple: the curious bystanders that spent the day on the street jeered at Maddie’s mother and father, mainly criticizing the “absence of visible suffering” from Kate. The foreign press also attended in great numbers.
The Judiciária’s 48 questions that Kate did not answer
- On the 3rd of May 2007, at around 10 p.m., when you entered the apartment, what did you see, what did you do, where did you search, what did you handle?
- Did you search in the couple’s bedroom’s closet? (said she would not reply)
- (Two photographs of her bedroom’s closet are exhibited) Can you describe its contents?
- Why are the curtains in front of the side window, behind the sofa (photograph is exhibited) ruffled? Did someone pass behind that sofa?
- How long did the search that you made in the apartment after detecting the disappearance of your daughter Madeleine take?
- Why did you say straight away that Madeleine had been abducted?
- Presuming that Madeleine had been abducted, why did you leave the twins alone at home while you went to the Tapas to raise the alarm? Even because the supposed abductor could still be inside the apartment.
- Why didn’t you ask the twins at that moment what had happened to their sister, or why didn’t you ask them at a later point in time?
- When you raised the alarm at the Tapas, what exactly did you say and what were the words?
- What happened after you raised the alarm at the Tapas?
- Why did you do to warn your friends instead of calling out from the balcony?
- Who contacted the authorities?
- Who participated in the searches?
- Did anyone outside of the group learn about Maddie’s disappearance during the following minutes?
- Did any neighbour offer you help after the disappearance?
- What does the expression “we let her down” mean?
- Did Jane mention to you that she had see a man with a child that night?
- How were the authorities contacted and which police force was called?
- During the searches, and already with the police present, in what locations was Maddie searched for, how and in what manner?
- Why didn’t the twins wake up during that search, or when they went to the upper floor?
- Who did you call after the facts?
- Did you call SKY News?
- Did you know about the danger of calling the media, because that could influence the abductor?
- Did you request the presence of a priest?
- How was Madeleine’s face publicized, with a photograph, or other media?
- Is it true that during the search you remained seated on Maddie’s bed without moving?
- How did you behave that evening?
- Did you manage to sleep?
- Before the trip to Portugal, did you comment on a bad feeling or a bad premonition?
- What was Madeleine’s behaviour?
- Did Maddie suffer of any disease or did she take any kind of medication?
- What was the relationship like between Madeleine and her siblings?
- What was the relationship like between Madeleine and her siblings, her friends and her colleagues at school?
- Concerning your professional life, in how many and in which hospitals have you worked?
- What is your medical specialty?
- Did you work by shifts, in emergency rooms or in other departments?
- Did you work on a daily basis?
- Did you stop working at a certain point in time? Why?
- Do your twin children have difficulty in falling asleep, are they unruly and does that upset you?
- Is it true that at certain times you were desperate over your children’s attitude and that left you were upset?
- Is it true that in England you considered the possibility of handing over Madeleine’s guardianship to a relative?
- In England, did you give your children medication? What type of medication?
- Within the process, you were shown films of cynotechnical inspection of forensic character, where the dogs can be seen marking indications of human cadaver odour and equally human blood traces, and only of human origin, as well as all the comments that were made by the responsible expert. After the visualization, and after cadaver odour was signaled in your bedroom next to the wardrobe and behind the sofa that was pushed against the living room window, you said that you could not explain anything apart from what you had already said?
- You said that you could not explain anything apart from what you had already said, concerning the marking of human blood behind the sofa by the detection dog
- You said that you could not explain anything apart from what you had already said, concerning the marking of cadaver odour in the boot of the vehicle that you rented a month after the disappearance?
- You said that you could not explain anything apart from what you had already said, concerning the marking of human blood in the boot of the vehicle?
- You said that you could not explain anything apart from what you had already said, upon being confronted with the result of the collection of Maddie’s DNA, which was analysed by a British lab, behind the sofa and inside the vehicle’s boot?
- Did you have any responsibility or intervention in the disappearance of your daughter?
The question that she answered
Are you aware of the fact that by not answering these questions you may compromise the investigation, which is trying to find out what happened to your daughter? She said “yes, if the investigation thinks so.”
Process becomes public tomorrow
From tomorrow onwards, the entire investigation into the disappearance of Madeleine will be made available to the arguidos, to the witnesses, to the lawyers and also to the journalists, because it is a case of manifest public interest.
The process, which was archived on the 21st of July, will also be available to the general public, a situation that will allow for an authentic scrutiny of the work that was developed by the Polícia Judiciária. This decision, which came as a surprise due to the fact that the case involves a child, was only announced at this point in time, after the Portuguese lawyers for the McCann family, Carlos Pinto de Abreu and Rogério Alves, requested the Portimão Court for priority in the access to the process.
Last Wednesday, the Court had requested the interested parties that had already asked for the consultation of the process to leave a CD at the secretary’s office, given the fact that the process will be supplied in a digital format.
The archiving of the investigation into the little girl’s disappearance, which happened on the 3rd of May 2007, in the Algarve, precipitated the lifting of the judicial secrecy, which had been extended precisely until the month of August.

It is frustrating but it is also obvious that where there are discrepancies, contradictions and plain lies in a story, it begins to smell, and when those contradictions etc. are not answered and explained, as they would have to be in a Court of Law, people with questioning and logical minds will begin to dig and having dug – more discrepancies etc. etc. Can anyone ANYONE who reads the evidence not see that, even if their story was true (which I do not believe) how have they managed to carry on as if they haven’t done anything wrong and they’re being backed up by powerful people.
Karen Matthews got 7 years and her daughter is alive and well, albeit better off without her. They were ignorant, ill-educated and could have done with the money, so what about Saints Gerry and Kate, just ask them to answer the questions. Yes it is frustrating but it leaves me enraged and feeling so impotent that these people are still allowed to carry on bumming off people who are far worse off than them and smirking all the way to the bank.
It is another good marketing ploy, to keep up the publicity and the Mantra that we think she’s still alive. Not very lucrative the truth though is it Gerry?
February 3rd, 2010 at 6:18 pm
Now I’ve got my orange box out, about washing Cuddle Cat, if they can tear the covers off Madeleine book, to put together what they thought was a credible plan, they can do anything, if your child is missing, everything of that child would be irreplacable and precious.
Finally, forensic science is progressing by leaps and bounds, and I hope the Policia Judiciaria have still got samples of DNA and next time they want it investigating, don’t send it to the UK, because you probably won’t get truthful results. What a terrible thing to have to say. God Help us all.
February 12th, 2010 at 5:35 pm
Please I hope that what I have read is not true and even if they were doing it for money as long as the poor child is still alive…
And to think that, in my innocent little world I believed that if I wished hard enough on my wishing stone everything would be better and Maddie would be home again..(bearing in mind I was 10 when she disappeared)
What has this world come to?
February 18th, 2010 at 12:31 pm
This case is so frustrating as anyone with half an ounce of intelligence, who takes time to read some of the case files released to date, can obviously see that there has been a major cover-up here. The McCanns have lied from start to finish & they’re still at it now ‘cos their slush fund is running dry.
Even more pissed off at the moment after seeing this afternoon’s news that the ban on Mr. Amarals book has been upheld. The book only contains facts from the case files and should be freely available for anyone to read. I’ve recently read the English translation of it and it will open the eyes of anyone who still subscribes to the abduction theory. That’s probably the real reason the McCanns wanted the ban in the first place.
By the way, does anyone know if the ban just applies to the “sale” of the book? What if it was freely available in pdf format?

You can read the book on the internet, in English, just Google it
February 19th, 2010 at 5:00 pm
I find this evidence very concerning. I have personally lost a grown-up child (through a road traffic accident) myself so I absolutely hesitate to criticise parents who have lost one of their own children. However, it is undeniable that the McCanns left a 3-year old child and two babies unsupervised in a room at night when they were well out of ear shot and not ‘in the garden’ as they have compared. All parents know how quickly a young child or baby can get into trouble with choking, being sick, having an accident etc. To leave children in such circumstances (more than once) is not the behaviour of responsible parents and certainly not of qualified doctors (assuming their credentials are genuine) – they took a risk and it went badly wrong. I sincerely hope that Maddie is found alive one day, but it escapes me why Kate and Gerry McCann were not prosecuted for child neglect. 99.9% of parents would have hired a baby sitter, so why didn’t they?
March 8th, 2010 at 12:16 pm
it seems to me that madeleine died by accident, or reaction from some medication she was given. her death if various parties did not want to be held responsible, could only be covered up by an elaborate story of abduction.(hastily cooked up by the parents& fellow friends with them at the tapas restaurant). all the friends present with the mccanns were fellow professionals with their careers at stake, all doing the same thing.(ie leaving children unattended whilst dining&taking turns to visit the children at timed intervals) ok but if a child starts choking and has no one to help them, not so good. if a child dies from such an event, but hasn’t been purposely left alone, then the parent or persons in charge would not necessarily been in trouble, but when said adults have purposely left them, like the mccanns&their friends did, then they new instantly that an abduction story would be the only way to save their professional skins, and that goes for all involved.
March 12th, 2010 at 3:42 am
Thanks Lyn @55 but the last bit of my post was a query more in relation to what would happen to anyone if they started making this pdf file freely available as opposed to selling. I think it should be compulsory reading for the British public, instead of having to listen to the rubbish we’re fed by our media!
March 12th, 2010 at 4:58 am
Hi Tim
Don’t know the answer to that, but i do know that the book is freely available on quite a few websites
Joana Morais website
The mccannfiles.com
The new 3A’s website
and MANY others.
Best thing to do is go into one of those sites and Save the book to read at your leisure
March 12th, 2010 at 7:32 am
Heyup Lyn. Thanks again for the info. I’ve already got a copy and read it but wondered how I’d stand if I started giving it away. The more people who read this (& the case files) the fewer people will support these fraudsters & maybe eventually they will be brought to justice…fingers crossed!!
March 12th, 2010 at 5:40 pm
Tim
Don’t know, but Mr Amaral is prohibited from selling/talking about the book…..not you. You can, if it bothers you, always refer your friends etc to the various sites mentioned and they can read it for themselves, that is how many people have found/read it, through others telling them, besides Tim it is a bugger to print off…….save the ink if i were you, just point them in the right direction.
March 12th, 2010 at 6:35 pm
Tim
Adding to my last comment, don’t know weather copyright procedures would apply, who knows but so far as i am aware no-one has mentioned it. Anyway i trust you would not be selling copies of this book…..as i said better to let friends know where they can read it for themselves
March 13th, 2010 at 12:37 pm
Hi again Lyn.
Deffo not even contemplating selling it but if anyone wants a version in pdf format they can have a copy, obviously FOC. The more people who read it, the more chance I think there is of the McConns being brought to justice!

The Smith family said they saw a man resembling JM carrying a small child towards the beach.
The route he would have taken to be seen in this location has been suggested on the web.
That route is in the direction of the OLD FORT and its PRIVATE BEACH.
Robert Murat’s uncle Ralph Eveleigh is pictured with a female jaz singer in his B&B villa SALSALITO.
The Jaz band that female singer belongs to entertains in the OLD FORT,PRAIA DA LUZ.
She is around late forties/fifty,buxom, shoulder lenght blonde hair.
Maybe a match for woman seen in petrol station the night Madeleine disapeared.
Robert Murat said he had been the victim of the biggest cock up (words to that effect) on the planet.
Rachel Oldfield/Jane Tanner are on the team for Private Equityfd ,Louis Hunts company set up with funds from AXA this is a top executive head hunting firm.
BROOMCO a Global Conglomerate set up by RBS,Tom Hunter,Ruben Brother, links back to a Zadik Bino.
Look up BROOMCO, BINOS, maybe a link with (GABINO) Murats Property com?
The list of linked companies goes on OLDFIELD&MILLER, NHS DIRECT NAMETAGS, WEBCAM and several others and account/tax firms some now defunct.Conspiracy on Global mass
Unravel the web and this case could be solved.
March 19th, 2010 at 3:16 pm
the more i read into this case, the more i think there is definitely a cover up. jane tanners sighting of the apparent abductor at 9-15 on the night carrying the child in the direction of the murats house is most probably made up to support the abduction theory and clear g mccann of involvement. however the smith family’s(from donegal) sighting of a man(at about 10pm)carrying a child fitting the description of madeleine, in the opposite direction(towards the beach)& being 60 to 70% certain that the man was g mccann, seems a lot more believable. it is said that jane tanner has altered her sighting about four times to fit the bill. at 9-15 g mcann was talking to a friend he had met after leaving the apartment on the way back to the tapas bar. no-one else witnessed the abductor, just j tanner. as she is a close friend is she making it up? having watched a couple of early interviews of the mccanns which were only a few weeks after the event, k mccann was already talking about madeleine in the past tense(ie she was a lively child) like she already knew she was dead. strange….
Site Admin: Joe Moura of CBS Television was on the 48-Hours Special on the Madeleine Case. He is bilingual and speaks fluent Portuguese. He visited PDL and spoke to the tapas restaurant employees and they told him Tanner never left the table that night. Martin Smith actually states he was 60-80% sure it was Gerry McCann (Volume XVI page 4136).
April 25th, 2010 at 4:41 am
I know there was non investigation regarding abduction.
1) why the police with Goncalo Amaral didn’t investigate possible abduction theory?
2)Was he unable to do it?
3)How the Police investigate the theory of abduction?
4)Was there any suspect of abduction by Police?
Thank you for answear
May 25th, 2010 at 5:26 am
it stinks rotton, if and i mean IF maddie had been taken there is no way you would leave the twins there alone and go back to the tapas bar—- say no more they are guilty…..o an another thing if you had nothing to hide and got accused of being involved there would be no stopping you telling the press and police to get on with finding her in no uncertain terms, and no-one and nothing would stop you…(i no 4sure if my they said i hurt my girl they i would hit them on the spot.)
Site Reply: Quite right Patrick. The story is nothing but a fabrication to cover up something more serious.
June 18th, 2010 at 12:25 pm
I pray for the day when Scotland Yard announce that they are investigating the manslaughter and neglect of Madeleine, and that the Mccanns are the only 2 suspects.
June 19th, 2010 at 8:21 am
Why you not accept and suspect some truth about abduction of Madeleine? With Tapas 9, there were more doctors family who did same process of care with children as McCanns. Police should reopen new investigation of abduction and maybe manslaughter Madeline. If there is indication of some witnesses there should be reason to do it now.
June 30th, 2010 at 6:20 am
I’m only 11 and now I am scared to hell and scared that I will get kidnapped.
This whole situation has upsted my siblings too. She should have just admited but no. She has no guts in her. I Think it was Kate. Not her dad.
I think Gerry is inocent and she hasn’t told him.
You better tell someone the true because people are starting to realise that this is all a lie.
For the first year I actually thought that Maddie was still alive.
Its true I did.
But now I have no hope left.
I actually want to meet Kate and if I do I am going to tell her some home truths.
I hope she gets fined for this.
Hope Maddie is safe or someone nice in heaven.
Hope she will have a better life next time.
June 30th, 2010 at 1:42 pm
@ patrick i agree with the end of your quote except had she done that and hit someone they would have painted her as a violent person and even more stupid speculations would have come about.
ppl react differently in certain situations. some of the questions she wouldnt answer sounded like they were asking random questions that anyone would answer with just a look on their face.. example..
1.Did you search in the couple’s bedroom’s closet? (said she would not reply).. wtf would i search my closet for??? thats not the first thing anyone would think to check and if i were her i would have asked them what they know about my child being missing that they pinpointed the closet as a place for me to check.
Why are the curtains in front of the side window, behind the sofa (photograph is exhibited) ruffled? Did someone pass behind that sofa? i would look at him like he was stupid. i have ruffled curtains …and if someone came through the window and took my kid that might explain the curtains
How long did the search that you made in the apartment after detecting the disappearance of your daughter Madeleine take? …..wouldnt it seem weird for someone to start their stop watch when looking for their missing child? and my answer would be idk who times themselves when their child has gone missing
Why did you say straight away that Madeleine had been abducted? ..had she said madeline has went missing they would have asked why she said madeline went missing and why she didnt say abducted oh please……
asking about her medical background wouldnt have helped find her daughter. none of us know what happened, dont base assumptions off of questions she decided not to answer. questions that i probably wouldnt answer because they are making me sound as if i did something to my child. questions nobody would have answered when every answer they give out of grief is being portrayed as the wrong answer.

Yes, as you say they do seem odd questions but that’s because they are usually referred to as “leading questions” and as such she would be advised not to answer any of them without advice -so she didn’t. Nevertheless, it is just another reason why we think this behaviour is odd, but it’s not in this case.
July 8th, 2010 at 12:23 pm
The McCann’s are guilty. The timelines have been documented and researched by one and all and there is absolutely no way an abduction could have taken place, in the time frame the McCann’s say it took place.
Reality. No one but the tapas 7 and good old Mum and Dad, even saw Madeline after 5:30pm that day.
We all know that Kate had been having big time issues with mummyhood and the challenges that this little girl was giving them. Even the police asked her if it was true that they were considering placing Maddy in the care of a relative in England. With the complaints about the children crying every night, from neighbours at the resort, it is not hard to imagine that Kate and Gerry were at their wits end. I mean who in their right minds, leaves babies to fend for themselves at night? They had closed the window shutters tight and the bedroom door where the children slept, which means it would have been pitch black in the bedroom. Scary enough for anyone, let alone small children. Reading the accounts of these infamous tapas 7 who claim to have been checking on Maddy and her siblings all night, it is now apparent that no one even physically went into the bedroom to see the children. They simply stopped by the closed door, listening for sounds. Wow. How impressive. No sounds. No problem. Are these people for real? A baby could have choked, gagged, fallen and hit their head, etc. Now, Gerry describes the feeling of coming back to find Maddy gone, like a Mother having lost her child in the grocery store for a split second. Sorry Gerry, not even close by comparisson. Nice try though. Wasn’t this the 5th night in a row that you left the children alone?
Kate and Gerry’s attempt to look like saints, has most of the public thinking they are. There is so much more information available now, like the blood stains in the apartment, the car, etc. with the McCann’s refusing explain a thing.
I hope the police get lucky and uncover just one tangible clue, that gives them what they need to arrest the parents and the tapas 7 for the cover up they have all been a part of.
And by the way Gerry, in every interview I have ever seen of you, you look guilty as sin. Your time is almost up. The truth will come out.
July 9th, 2010 at 3:07 am
Could agree more with what Laurie said.
Well said!!!
I do find it amazing that with the evidence the cadavar dogs found that no-one was arrested.
There was a similar case in America where a Mother denied killing her daughter, she claimed she went missing etc etc, sounds familiar doesnt it?…
In the end after suspicions the dogs were sent in and detected blood and cadaver in the boot of the Mothers car.
She was arrested and charged without a body or any more proof other than the dogs and forensics evidence from the fibres in the boot… again sounds familiar!!
In the end the little girls was found in the woods and the forensic evidence from the body and clothing put the Mother away for good.
Why the hell hasnt this happened with the Mccanns???? The evidence is there!!! Why ignore it?
July 9th, 2010 at 6:48 pm
Is it just me or does anyone else think the sketch of the abductor, who Jane Tanner describes seeing, amazingly looks like Jane Tanner? I remember reading somewhere that more often then not when a person makes up a description of a suspect, that it will look like the person giving the description. Which makes me wonder why would she make up a suspect? Also, I read the McCanns vacationed with some of these people before. Which ones? And whose idea were the vacations? How well did the McCanns really know these people? No matter what happened it is sad.
Another thought is, Did the resort have curb side drains. You know the kind on the side of the sidewalks that don’t always have a grate. I remember reading a story about a small child almost being swept away into one of these when crossing through a puddle with a parent. Fortunately the parent was able to grab the child’s hair, hold on and pull the child out of the drain. The parent couldn’t beleive that a 2-3yr old child could fit through such a wide yet narrow slit. She petitioned to have covers put on such drains. Remembering this story made me wonder if Maddie could have wandered away and fallen into a drain or even a crevise. Remember baby Jessica in the well? It was a tiny hole she fell through. Are there tiny spaces Maddie could have fallen into if she wandered away looking for mommy & daddy? There are so many things that could have happened to this child, including accidental overdose and abduction.
As far as not answering some of these questions, well, answering the questions either way could have been used to distort the answer against her. Did you check the closet? Answer no and suddenly its “Why didn’t you? You knew she was dead, didn’t you?” Answer yes and its “Why did you check the closet? Why didn’t you hurry to get help? You did that because you knew she was dead, didn’t you?” Etc.
I pray that Madeleine will soon be found alive and well and able to return to her parents, who will need to earn her forgiveness for leaving her alone without their protection. Though I fear that probably won’t be the case and when I think that I pray she’s found no matter what.

I think I read somewhere that one of the ’sketches’ resembles Kate – so maybe the one Jane Tanner describes as being who she saw is an example of this same phenomena. It is something that I myself experienced but in a different scenario. I used draw faces, one in particular. It wasn’t until my tutor asked who I thought it was and I told him I didn’t know, that he told me it was me! So you are right, sometimes we remember features that are not unlike ourselves.
I have read many blogs regarding the couples and who took holidays with whom. Maybe Stevo can answer this question – but will search and see what I can find. My memory is not good sometimes and refuses to work.
Please, that awful incident with the drain – yes, I’ve thought this too, one seems to try out every scenario available to explain in a feasible way what could have happened to her – but many on here and elsewhere, still come face to face with the “cadaver/blood dogs” and it seems just so hopeless. This beautiful little child lost amongst a sea of possible lies and deceit. If only we could have the truth – we could then accept and grieve properly.
July 15th, 2010 at 4:40 pm
Jane Tanner changed her description so many times, ranging from a faceless figure (strange when you consider the detail in the rest of the image, even down to the classic shoes) and went through several more images – including one who looked like Murat, finally arriving at the devil incarnate and the supposed child went from being wrapped in a blanket, to wearing exacty the same pyjamas as Madeleine, all this in poor visibility (She must have eaten tons of carrots). Even if the abduction story were true, her evidence would be laughed out of court.
I’m still surprised that people, whom I presume have read about the discrepancies, the lies, contradictions, the weird body language, the refusal to answer questions, the excuses, the money grubbing, the ability to carry on regardless when they should have been on the floor, not all smiles, make-up and colour co-ordinated clothes, the way the fund for finding Madeleine, has been used for Lawyers and Barristers, mortgage payments, petty cash – I won’t even go there… and always bearing in mind that, even if you go with the abduction shit, the fact that they’ve never ever admitted being wrong in any way whatsoever, but people still come here saying I hope Madeleine comes back soon. I’m a reasonably intelligent person, I believed in the abduction at first, it wasn’t the Policia Judiciaria or, in fact, anyone else at all, it was the McCanns and their friend’s actions and re-actions, who made me think that all was not as it seemed.
They and no-one else, sowed the suspicion in my mind, I didn’t even know I could converse with people of like minds on this and other sites, run by selfless and dedicated people who REALLY did, and still do, care about Madeleine. It came to me slowly but surely.
So, anyone who comes here still thinking the Mcanns are the poor victims and hoping Madeleine will come home, I’d ask them to go, read anything and everything they can and make an informed decision.
I personally don’t think Madeleine was alive to be put into bed that evening, or to tell her mum that she’d had the best day ever, just a tiny bit too much information. Or the Gerry thing, on his final check he was struck at how happy and proud he was, to be the father of these beautiful children, again just a bit too much information. These statements may seem innocent enough, I believe though, that they were made deliberately, to re-inforce the abduction scenario, the 30 second/30 minute visit by Payne who saw all the children all clean and ready for bed, very subtle to most, others have alarm bells ringing.
You see Gerry, you think, that you’re intellectually superior to most, you ooze smug self-satisfaction, something happened to Madeleine, you had to act quickly and you thought you could pull the situation off, but you made careless mistakes due to that viewpoint, EVEN you Gerry aren’t that clever. Now you have a hired voice to hide behind (paid for by the fund, naturally), and you have connections and they enable you to silence newspapers, pull the plugs on sites like these, and to trot around the world (paid for by the fund, naturally).
The biggest travesty of all, is someone like YOU, going on paid for jaunts, as the perfect, parental role model, when you were an absolute failure as a father, to the CHILD who loved and needed you the most. Kate was right You let her down, YOU fatally let her down, why don’t you just come clean.
Guilty as not yet charged! The clock is ticking…..
July 17th, 2010 at 6:33 am
Ok! Jane Tanner changed her description so many times, did you ask her directly why? I think she has reason for to do it like that, because she is woman like many another. I challenge you to ask her in the UK. What I think 98% of the Portuguese people are honest and fair. There are also another people, who are no fair not honest, who did this crime against law may be they are also not Portuguese.
July 19th, 2010 at 8:35 am
Tony, I can’t really see what you mean, Jane Tanner being a woman and that’s why she did it??
If I approached Jane Tanner, I’d probably be in court on a harassment charge. These people can silence the press, close websites, and sue for hundreds of thousands, they are absolutely determined to make people see it their way, by fair means or foul. I’ve also not made any reference about the Portugese people, I think Portugese Police have done an excellent job, considering their every move was thwarted by the British Police, Embassy Staff, and Politicians. They know some very powerful people.
I think there may be a bit of a language difficulty beween us.
