Sky news 7pm - Exclusive new report on Madeleine McCann investigation tonight - 1 Sept 2014

I have now learnt that at the end of the Rupert Murdoch-SKYNews report were these two sentences:

Author Anthony Summers, whose book Looking For Madeleine is out next week and contains further revelations about the case, said: "It was a case of too many cooks… spoiling the broth of the initial investigation."

Co-author Robbyn Swan added: "The problems that grew out of the race to help …those things have not been fundamentally addressed."

+++++++++++++++++++++

Thus we now have another indication that this book is to be heavily promoted.

The fact that Summes & Swan promise 'further revelations' suggest to me two things:

1. That insiders in the British police, government and security services may have deliberately leaked material to them, whether information or disinformation, and

2. That there is now likely to be a further spate of sensational news headlines in the next few days, as there was before the NNC CrimeWatch McCann Special last October, fed as usual to the media by Clarence Mitchell and his network, probably culminating in a serialisation in one of Murdoch's newspapers.

No doubt the TV networks have also booked prime time slots with Summers or Swan for them to titillate the great British public with the prospect of dramatic new revelations in their book.

Person A: I've got a secret but I'm not going to say anymore.

Person B: Oh that's nice...your point is?

Person A: I've seen something but dont want say anymore.

Person B: Then why are you telling me about a secret which you refuse to disclose the details of?

Why are they telling us this now...I wonder?

Jim Gamble's revelation is nothing new. Even before his report which cannot be disclosed there were calls for closer co-operation with the Portugese police.

From the Sky article

Speaking to Sky News, Mr Gamble said that within the first few weeks of Madeleine going missing in Praia da Luz in May 2007 the Portuguese were given advice by CEOP, the Metropolitan Police, the Serious Organised Crime Agency and the National Police Improvement Agency.

I dont recall them handing over the photos they collected from the public to the PJ.

Guess what:

Oh jeez!  Did we write the script for this latest book promo round or what!    I mean the Met haven't got a pot to piss in if this is the best they can do to complete their final leg of 'the abduction' facade. 

Unfortunately for Gamble, Hogan Howe, DCI Redwood, and the pink pimp, there is STILL no evidence of an abduction, and all roads STILL lead to the lying McCanns.

From just watching that Brunty piece outside LPHQ I take it that the "mystical thing" that has hung over this case for 7 years will likely be found within that building.....

Could be anything from inappropriate help for the McCanns whilst hindering of the PJ all the way up to some people within that HQ building being somehow directly involved in corruption or more....!?

I thought September would be a big month, but it could be massive.

The saddest thing of all though is Madeleine is now completely forgotten in pursuit of the corruption, which is very important of course, but still sad for her.

Most definitive account my a*se! Toeing the party line more like, looks very much like the script for closing down the case imo.

Gamble claims all those agencies that descended on Portugal just wanted to help, so I wonder why The Home Office refused to turn over basic McCann credit card and bank statements when the investigation was in its infancy... even as the blood and cadaver dogs alerted to the McCanns apartment and hire car, and the pair kept changing their absurd story.  Yeh, the Home Office reeeeally wanted to help, and still do!

Well, watching Gamble tonight, I'm not surprised T.May got rid of him.He comes across as a bully and very slimy.

I do not know why SKY suddenly made something of a 'secret' report from 2010. What significance does it carry now? People who have followed this case have known from the outset that the UK agencies acted as idiotic amateurs, hindering what should have been a routine investigation involving the parents and their friends.

And if they were not idiotic amateurs, then they had a calculated objective to hinder everything in order to facilitate the McCanns return to the UK where the McCanns  could then launch legal actions against anyone and anything they needed to in order to prevent facts of the case being made public.

There wouldn't be a libel trial coming up next week, would there?

Yes Martin, how things have changed

Is that report trying to explain RHs videos of how so many organisations got involved?

And just in case Brunty has since developed a type of amnesia......

Eager to help Jim Gamble?

Can you tell us about the manuals?

12 July 2007	London   Gerry flies to London alone to meet with the British police.   At night he attends the National Police Federation Annual Bravery Awards and receives a standing ovation.
13 July 2007	London   Still in London, Gerry spends a large part of the day at the Child Exploitation and Online Protection (CEOP) Centre to learn more about their role.   It seems likely that it was on this visit that Gerry collected the CEOP manuals that were seen later in the PJ video, taken in the McCanns' Vista Mar Villa residence, in August 2007.

All trying to help?

So why did it take some 4 months for the Gaspar evidence to be forwarded on to the PJ?

That's suggest to me not "being helpful" but evidence management.

Does anyone else think that Martin Brunt seems a tad annoyed with Leicestershire Police? Why would he be telling us that now ?

Strange timing!  
The sudden interest to feature Jim Gamble's few-years-old secret-report now timed ahead of S&S book release leaves one wondering if this was done to pre-empt revelations in S&S book.

" 
"In the first instance, the parents should be your number one suspects," he told Sky. "In most cases, in the first few golden hours, as you collect evidence, you can then rule them in or out. And that was one of the huge flaws in this – people didn't focus on clearing the ground beneath their feet in those chaotic first few hours that led into the haphazard first few weeks. ".

Just what is he trying to say? He has blamed the PJ as usual but then utters the 2 words no-one in this case is allowed to say, 'parents' and 'suspects'!

Indeed.

He's a sharp fella Jim isn't he?

Brunty's not for behind, Summers and Swan run them both close I reckon.

It is strange that this was not the first instance of a child missing overseas ,so what caused all the " need to help" with Agencies falling over each other?

There is still more than a hint with the " haphazard Investigation " phrases in the piece that the original PJ were incapable of conducting
an investigation. according to the British police. Add to the denegration by the sideswipe at the LP ( a little - unprepared force - unlike the mighty and trustworthy Met ) again in this piece and you will be led to believe that if only the British  big boys had been allowed to take the investigation over it would have been done and dusted in under two weeks.

I'm afraid they and Summers and Swann and Gamble can't get away with that.

" Haphazard "  or not, evidence was gathered by the PJ and later on by the NPIA ( via Martin Grimes et al ) and statements and witnesses were interviewed as normal by the LP. No confusion there. None at all.

No confusion from the Attorney General of Portugal neither. He/they never talked about lack of evidence just insufficient evidence to progress the investigation further.

The fact that the people involved could have clarified the known evidence further but did not take the opportunity to do so is all there in black and white.

In my opinion there are three parts to this alleged chaos and ironically non of it involves the original PJ initially but did later on when the  "     " need to help-ers " arrived in great numbers abley assisted as always by a compliant media.

Firstly as said above evidence was gathered statements taken etc etc . All normal police procedure and so on. The problem was that the word " abduction " kept being repeated ad nauseum by the media and all the helpers. Once the evidence such as the jemmied shutters story proved that no such thing happened then unexpectedly Mr Amaral and his team smelt a rat so to speak. No confusion there.

Add to this the helpers assistance in fingering Robert Murat as the possible " abductor or assistant" very early on and you can imagine the
discussion in the investigation.

The second part of the helping came about mysteriously just as the PJ had collated their evidence ( with help from the UK police Agencies )
and were about to proceed further by means of clarification of provided statements re: movements that night and also on the basis of forensics as well as The Smith family sighting. Suddenly the helpers in the media decided that Mr Amaral was responsible for souring relations with the British police by him discussing " interference " with a colleague in a bar. His removal was ' helpfully ' assisted by Ribeiro his boss who
couldn't sack him ( for fear of a possible inquiry - who knows? ) and he was duly taken off the case. He was never " sacked " but the helpful media wouldn't let that fact get in the way of a helpful story. With that out of the way the " abduction " thesis still had traction.

Anyway most posters on here know the rest I think and in my opinion the search for Madeleine stopped right there and then and the search for suspects ( other than the original ones ) began. Not so much as looking for this missing child but looking for the remover(s) leading us up to right where we are now. No further on re: the credible new evidence the AG's were asking for.

This leads to the third ( and maybe the last part?) of the Madeleine saga.

The " helpful " ones seem to be more than suggesting that it was this urgency to help that may have hindered the investigation and thereby the search for Madeleine. Which does beg the question posed above as to why they wished to be urgently helpful in the case of this missing child ( at that time alive and in the media's words " abducted ") as if this was the first ever missing child investigation on the planet. Imagine the Yanks if you tried to be helpful on their patch. Quite rightly they would tell you Limeys to take Hike and that's putting it mildly. So, why did the Portuguese Government and its Authorities allow the helpful people to help? Or was it submit? 

I will read Summers and Swann's book but the writing is on the wall as far as I'm concerned as many are saying on here and elsewhere in the blogsphere this looks like a pre amble to the closing of the investigation and the chief apologists appear to be a pair of errudite experts with non other than the Murdoch Empire promoting this theory. That's all it is. No better no worse than yours or mine. The theory being that " the need to help " got in the way and caused the PJ's " Haphazard " investigation to become even more haphazard and confused the poor blighters ( the original PJ ) into making many mistakes and wrongly accusing the wrong people.

In fact to unconfuse people it may be a good idea for a British publisher to publish The Truth of the Lie in English then we can either: A). Confuse people even more or B) Unconfuse them completely. I hope a publisher has the guts to do it. Particularly a publisher who has had
a run in with Murdoch or the Libel Courts.

p.s. The Times suing looks to have been smoothed away doesn't it?

Opinion as ever though.

Nice to know that SY agree with this and that OG are now putting things right. Not.

 I hope it's not wooshed!

Did I hear this last report right. CEOP to set up and co-ordinate a centre to investigate all children missing in similar circumstances?
1. Children left alone whilst parents go out on the pssi.
2. Parents and friends preparing a series of events to present to the police when they have to be told.
3. Parents and friends not out searching for their own children leaving the job to volunteers.
4. False trail of evidence statements such as a staged break in with forced entry.
5. Multiple media coverage from the first hour.

I don't think we are ever going to see similar circumstances.

"If we look at it honestly, there were some in leadership roles who wanted to represent their organisation, to be seen to take a lead role and to be seen to provide critical input in this – and that made it difficult for a small, regional force like Leicestershire."
He went on: "I've no doubt relationships from the outset with the Portuguese were impacted by it and I think that had a long-term negative effect on the investigation. I think to this very day the Met investigation team that's engaged now are still having to manage and massage that relationship and perhaps, to be fair to the Portuguese, mend some fences that were trodden on in the early days."

It does sound to me, like he is blaming the British police for cocking up the investigation.  If this was a 'secret' report, him volunteering it's contents now does sound like damage control before some kind of news.
If the UK. Establishment can blame a few individual police chiefs and their egos for making a mess of the original investigation, it might look a lot better than political interference and cover-ups.

Is Jim Gamble still smarting from losing his job? There is an element of sour grapes in this statement:

One of Mr Gamble's recommendations was the establishment of a national centre for missing children. However, this has not been set up.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
WITH 'our' JIM as the shiny new CEO!

national centre for missing children?

NCMC

It's only 'missing' (abducted?) an 'E'

Like Gerry McCann's oft quoted 'favourite' private 'missing children' organisation in USA..........NCEMC.

Lest we forget:

There were 400, (FOUR HUNDRED), 'cases' of 'missing people', that were NOT 'missing' as declared by GM's 'favourite' charity, National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, in USA, who the 'charity' are funded by the USA taxpayer , to 'look' for.

Ernie Allen Testifies Before U.S. Congress,

ADMITS to Four Hundred Cases of Missing Child FRAUD.

Dateline: Washington, DC, 2 December 2009

Mr. Ernie Allen, President and Chief Executive Officer of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (USA) and its wholly owned affiliate, the International Centre for Missing and Exploited Children, dropped a bombshell today before the Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission of the United States Congress.

This official testimony appears to contain the first ever admission by any representative of the American center that a full one-third of its current cases are probable if not certain cases of missing child fraud.

That is four hundred (400) children being falsely advertised by the American center, right now, as though they were "missing".

Mr. Allen is personally raking in nearly one million U.S. Dollars ($1.000.000,00) annually courtesy of the United States taxpayer. On the basis of his Center's missing children statistics, Congress rewarded the American Center with a huge budget that must be the envy of every NGO on the planet, without any oversight or preconditions. Yet, were it not for the pressure being placed on Mr. Allen by members of this committee, in both civil and criminal proceedings, the American public and the world community would still be entirely UNAWARE that they were BEING MISLED.

Imo, 'Missing people' AND Gerry McCann's 'favourite' charity, in USA, NCMEC, which GM mentions, constantly, at any 'interviews' the McCanns 'giving' ARE.................

'ALL IN IT'... TOGETHER!

JG still 'smarting?

Oh, YES!

The 'thiefdom' wasn't set up!

@jeanmonroe

'The 'thiefdom' wasn't set up!'

Perhaps Summers and Swann can pen an exciting book exposing charities with a catchy title...
