Gerry tells us what happened

One of the strongest reactions from the McCanns in all of their many interviews was one with Portuguese TV, where Gerry was asked what was his reaction when he was told about the blood found in the apartment. Gerry stands up, takes off his microphone, saying, "you know what", pause, "this is the investigation..".



Kate studies him intensely looking like she’s figuring out whether he is finally going to crack and drop them both in it, then provides the rather lame excuse, "he’s just a bit hot give him a minute, go and get some fresh air".



Why would this question be such a threat? Does this reaction make sense if you know your child was abducted from the apartment? Put yourself in the shoes of innocent parents when asked this question, what would you say – If I was Gerry and I knew that Madeleine had cut herself and bled in the living room during the holiday, ofcourse I would say, "that's when she cut herself", "yes , she was round behind the sofa with that cut leg or arm". If she hadn’t cut herself, then I would assume it must be someone elses blood from a previous occupancy. If the police tested the blood and found it to be Madeleine’s, then if I was Gerry confronted with this information, I would be incredibly puzzled and I would be desperately trying to figure out how it all transpired, which would be extremely difficult if she hadn’t bled earlier in the holiday. I would hold onto the fact that Madeleine’s blood in an inaccessible location just isn’t consistent with an intruder with a limited window of opportunity to be present in the apartment. An intruder wouldn’t move the settee, cause Madeleine to bleed there, replace the settee and then take Madeleine off into the night, incidentally not bleeding any more." No she was abducted and the blood was not related to her, the DNA analysis must be wrong", I would think. The reaction of an innocent man in all of these scenarios would be naturally forthcoming rather than taking fright and running away from the question. Any comment on the above does not negatively influence the investigation in the slightest, so the convenient ‘get-out’ of citing the rules of Portuguese investigations is merely a ploy for Gerry to dodge the question.



This question must be of great significance to Gerry, perhaps it brings back a vivid an unpalatable memory for him. It certainly blows a gaping hole in the abduction proposition, it completely undermines his mantra that there is absolutely no evidence to suggest that Madeleine has come to any harm. No wonder he avoided it like the plague. Gerry gives it away, it was Madeleine’s blood and she died in that location.



The second very significant interview I find is the Australian interview where the reporter asked directly whether he killed his daughter. The answer was "no, that’s an emphatic no". I get suspicious when someone has to reinforce a denial like this, a bit like OJ simpson’s "100% not guilty", pronouncement. This is the first time that I know of where the McCanns actually try to take on the accusations against them, and to show them as ludicrous. Gerry plays on the limited time according to their timeline for Madeleine to have been killed in the apartment and for them to "dispose of", quickly corrected by Gerry to "hidden the body", (don’t want to appear heartless do we). Now Gerry knows that it is indeed unreasonable to believe that there was time for her to have had an accident, for them to clean it up, and take the body away and secrete her so well that nobody could find her. He plays on this, because he knows only too well that Madeleine died before the evening of the 3^rd May, and he knows how long it took to cover up the tragedy. The evening of the 3^rd of May was dedicated to creating a simulated abduction only.



So there you have it directly from Gerry’s mouth – Madeleine died in apartment 5A before the evening of 3^rd May. All In my opinion

Also his reply to Sandra ask the dogs Sandra.

I think it is very telling the way he quickly changes from disposal to hidden - IMO that could be an indicator that the body was disposed of rather than hidden - i.e. it id gone for ever - but he ad to retract it as only the disposer or hider would know that information. 

Secondly - when asked if he killed his daughter - i would expect an innocent father of an abducted to child to respond words to the effect of  ' no and  I am clinging on to the hope that she has not beeen killed 0- that she is out there somewhere alive'. Gerry's emphatic 'No' indicates, IMO, an agreement that she is dead.

In the interview with Sandra, Kate already had in mind who took her or rather were prepared to tell the world she knew Madeleine was taken by a paedophile when she said "Its really important to remember that somebody has committed an evil crime.  It's a 4 year old little girl that has been taken from her bed, you know.  It's an awful crime and that person is still out there and these people don't commit these crimes as a one-off".

She delivered that statement in a rather contemptuous tone, in a rather impersonal and conceited manner.  She's been proven wrong about it not being "one off".  IT really is a one off crime in PDL.  So far there has been no report of a similar case in Portugal since Madeleine.

Me thinks SP would be better off doing a few series documentary if she's serious about telling the untold story of Madeleine.  All K&G interviews with their ridiculous answers delivered in the smirk and conceited tone should be aired. That would allow the general public to discern for themselves (even in retrospect) what they will make of the interviews.  Many of these interviews are on youtube but never been aired by MSM.

Sorry for the correction but that interview was with Spanish TV

You know, I always thought this about the reaction to the dogs tbh.

Lets assume for a second that the parents genuinely know nothing about her disappearance. When told the scent of death had been found...would a 'normal' reaction not be massive grief over the chance your daughter is dead, maybe anger at the person that did it, some confusion mixed in there somewhere...rather than trying to explain it away immediately :/

Well of course! But for the past 7-8 years the McCanns have propagated and hidden behind the desperate mantra, "We believe she's alive!" This is the biggest scam of all, imo. From the start they portrayed themselves as desperate, naive parents who refused to accept any suggestion that their daughter was dead. This cloak of insistence has served them well - it's allowed them to dismiss things like the dogs, DNA evidence and the Portuguese police, while at the same time attempting to convince the British public that their only motive for doing so is because they're maintaining their stubborn belief that their child is unharmed and alive. If you remove that stubborn insistence, the cloak of desperation and the constant mantra, what you're left with is, imo, a couple of parents who are dismissive of anything that points to their guilt.
