This is where we don't actually know the poster to whom we respond isn't it.

If I am totally honest in answering your question and honest about the way I am when faced with daunting situations, Iwould have to say the dogs would have done it for me. My daughter in my eyes would have been murdered or at the best badly injured and stolen to face something awful at the hands of who knows who. I tend to think worst possible scenario so that anything better is a bonus. So no great fortitude coming from me I am afraid.

There is nothing I would like more for the McCann family, especially Madeleine, than for her to be found living comfortably with some misguided people who wanted a child and had stolen her and treated her well. There is no evidence of that like there is no factual evidence of anything happening to her other than her disappearing.

I find their behaviour at times quite odd although I do think beating them with a big stick for their neglect is becoming quite pointless as they must be doing that to themselves every moment of everyday. This, in my opinion only, is one of the occasions of odd behaviour because it strikes me as a do as I say and not as I do thing. And if she is dead? Isn't finding that out important so that she can be properly mourned? Having said that I hope she isn't but in reality it is a possibility.

There is no undisputed evidence of an abductor either - no evidence of an abductor that could withstand questioning so that it is undesputable. Until there is evidence of how she vanished we will all base our opinions upon our individual interpretations of what we see and hear and let's not forget, they are only that, opinions and assumptions, yours included.



Take care

I don't believe for a second you would give up on your child because a dog barked, I think you would look to the experts to explain what it could mean and they would tell you that it means nothing.

maybe this is my bias but I don't believe it is possible for people to give up on their childs life, you gave birth to her, it is your responsibility to protect and support her, I find it hard to believe that someone would give up after 4 months with no blood, no witness to her being hurt, no confession. No suspect even. Sure if there was a suspect and thery had an MO of abducting children and murdering them within hours and this had happened several times and the individual was seen in the area and matched the eye witness sketches then perhaps a parent might eventually accept that even in the absence of hard evidence of their child being dead the probability is high. But 4 months, in an apartment that had been relet several times, dogs who's reactions are not even close to 100%, nope. Not in a million.

To quote Gerry himself:
"And if Madeleine had hurt herself inside the apartment, why would that be our fault?"

Does not seem he is very guilt ridden by his stupid neglect.

oh dear, hi, context, you can take any statement by anyone out of context and it sounds ridiculous, he was responding to the suggestion there might be Madeleine's blood in the apartment, like if she had skinned her knee playing or something. Good grief, is this the level we have to debate at?

Er, REPEAT, I am not allowed to post my reasons as this would I believe contravene the terms and conditions of my gagging order.

Apart from that, Eddie didn't bark in 10 places in Praia da Luz for nothing.

He was trained to bark/alert at human cadaverine, a substance which starts to be emitted from the human body from 90 to 120 minutes after the moment of death.

Expresso interview last year, here:

06/09/08
McCanns in Expresso - Interview

Maddie case: In their first interview since they quit being suspects in the disappearance of their daughter, Kate and Gerry McCann spoke about the re-launch of the investigation, the fear that they felt in Portugal and the unshakable certainty that Madeleine was abducted

“Nothing in the process says that Madeleine has died”

Q – What are you presently doing to find Madeleine?
Gerry – We have had private investigators working with us for several months. Now that the case has been archived, it’s easier because we accessed the process. We carried out new interviews with those that had already testified. And we interviewed others who approached us and had never spoken before.
Kate – As we didn’t know what the PJ had done, we repeated everything that seemed important to us.

Q – Do the new witnesses offer clues about the disappearance?
Gerry – Some report sightings, but it’s not likely that they lead to our daughter. We are more interested in persons that offer credible information that can be verified through photographs or in another form; persons who know who may be involved.

Q – What impression did you get from the process? Were you shocked over its contents?
Gerry – We were investigated into the smallest detail. There are entire volumes about us. We can jump those. It must be disquieting information that will not help us to find Madeleine.

Q – Don’t you think that everything that was possible to do, was done? The investigation reached Poland, the Netherlands, Spain, Morocco…
Gerry – Morocco is a good example of what went wrong. A sighting was reported and it was said that there were cameras at the petrol station. When the inspectors went there, they concluded that there were none. The truth is that there were none in the pump area, but in the shop. And when the PJ returned, the tape had been recorded over.
Kate – It’s difficult to describe how it feels to have our daughter taken away… We want to see action everywhere. We wanted spotlights, we wanted helicopters, we wanted everyone on the street, searching.

Q – If Madeleine had disappeared in England, would things have been different?
Gerry – If it had happened in a British city, I have no doubts. But I don’t know if it would have been different if we had been in a small village in Scotland. Clearly, the English police are more experienced in abductions, they are more alert.

Q – If you have an important clue concerning Madeleine’s whereabouts, will you transmit it to the Portuguese police?
Gerry – If something needs to be done in Portugal, we’ll have to. We cannot go around breaking doors down or arresting people. But only when we feel that we cannot advance any further on our own.

Q – Do you trust the Portuguese authorities, after having been considered suspects?
Gerry – We wouldn’t mind if we had been investigated at the beginning, if they thought that could help. But months later, when the evidence had been lost? It’s that once the suspicion is installed, we can never prove our innocence again.

Q – Didn’t you find it strange that the dogs found traces of blood in your room and in your rental car…
Gerry – There was no blood found! The indicia are worthless if they are not corroborated by forensic information. And they were not.

Q – 40 apartments were investigated and the dogs only marked yours. Ten cars and they only reacted to yours.
Gerry – These dogs’ frailty was proved by a study that was carried out in the USA, in the case of a man that had been accused of murder. They had ten rooms, and in each room four boxes were placed, containing vegetables, bones, trash. Some contained human remains. They stayed there for ten hours. Eight hours after the boxes were removed, the dogs came in. And the dogs failed two thirds of the attempts. Imagine the reliability when these dogs test an apartment three months after the disappearance of a child.

Q – Were you surprised when you were made arguidos?
Kate – It was not surprising after weeks with the media saying that we were suspects. And there we have to ask why the information that reached the media was disfigured. Why do the newspapers say that blood was found in the apartment when the police report does not confirm it? Why was it said that the DNA that was found in the car was a 100% match with Madeleine’s?
Gerry – In a way, we would like to have been accused so we could defend ourselves openly. Now, reading the process, there is no evidence that justifies the suspicion, apart from the dogs’ action. There was never a sustained explanation. And the questioning: ‘What happened to Madeleine? How did you get rid of her? Who helped you? Where did you put her? All fantasy! If they had found DNA – so what? And if Madeleine had hurt herself inside the apartment – why would that be our fault?

Q – Do you investigate information that point towards Madeleine’s death?
Kate – We want to find her alive, but if she is dead we want to know.

Q – Do you still believe that she’s alive?
Kate – There are great possibilities that she is alive, isn’t it? There is nothing in the process to indicate that something bad has happened to her…

Q – But there are no indicia that she has been abducted, either.
Gerry – We firmly believe that she was abducted by a man, minutes after I went to see her in the bedroom. There are two independent witnesses that saw a child of around four years of age being carried that evening. Our friend Jane Tanner and also the Smith family.

Q – The PJ discredits Jane Tanner’s testimony. They say that when she saw said man with the child, you [Gerry] were chatting nearby and it was impossible that you hadn’t seen him as well…
Gerry – I didn’t see her because my back was turned to the location where she passed. I was talking to a friend. And there is also the couple with children that saw a man carrying a child with a pyjama that was similar to Madeleine’s, blond hair, the same age.

Q – Later on, that family stated that the man they saw was Gerry…
Gerry – At that time I was at the restaurant. The fact that we became suspects has probably influenced the Smiths’ testimony.

Q – Was it a coincidence that you were made arguidos on one day and returned home the next day?
Gerry – They questioned us on that day because the PJ knew about our return.

Q – Were you afraid of being arrested?
Kate – Obviously. At a certain point we didn’t know very well what could happen.
Gerry – From the information in the newspapers, of course we were afraid. It was scary.

Q – Being in England, you would not be extradited anymore.
Gerry – We asked the inspector that was in charge of the case of he had any objection: the answer was no. It’s obvious that we were afraid that people might think we were escaping, but it was better not to be in Portugal at that point in time.

Q – Why?
Kate – Because of the hostile environment. We couldn’t even leave the house.

Q – Why did Kate refuse to answer questions during your interrogation, that Gerry accepted to clarify the next day?
Kate – I was advised by my Portuguese lawyer not to reply.
Gerry – I received the same advice but decided to disobey. My plan was to remain silent, but the first question was: are you involved in your daughter’s disappearance? It was nonsense and I decided to answer. From there onwards, I replied to all of them.

Q – Why didn’t you authorize the police to see the messages that you sent and received on your mobile phone on the eve of Maddie’s disappearance.
Gerry – Nobody asked to see my messages. On the day before and on the day of the disappearance I did not receive or send 16 messages. I could hardly write a text message. I received three or four phone calls and two were from work. After the disappearance I received hundreds. And when the police asked me for the registry, I told them to ask the service provider. My phone only registers the last ten.

Q – The chief inspector in the case, Tavares de Almeida, writes a report where he says that your friends lied to save you, that Maddie died in the living room, and that you hid the body.
Gerry – What can we say? You will have to ask the police chiefs why they wrote that, why they saw us as suspects.

Q – The majority of crimes where the victims are children are committed by the parents.
Gerry – Not in the case of abducted children. And this is a case of an abducted child. It’s an exceptional case.

Q – When he archived the case, the prosecutor said that the investigation can be reopened if a new clue appears. Do you think that is possible?
Kate – Of course! It could happen at any moment. All that it takes is for one person to make the phone call that we wait for so much. We know that she was abducted in Portugal and we vehemently believe that someone knows or suspects something.

“Mr Amaral’s behaviour is a disgrace”

They have not read the book that is a best-seller in Portugal. And they don’t spare the author and former PJ inspector

Q – Former inspector Gonçalo Amaral remains convinced of your involvement in Madeleine’s disappearance. Did you read ‘The Truth of the Lie’, the book that he wrote?
Kate and Gerry – No.
Kate – Why would I?
Gerry – I won’t learn anything from reading it.

Q – It was a success in Portugal.
Gerry – Was it? How many copies did it sell?

Q – Approximately 200 thousand. Next week, it is edited in Spain.
Gerry – That is what can be called illicit enrichment.

Q – Your English lawyers already have a translated copy and they are analyzing it. Do you intend to sue Gonçalo Amaral?
Gerry – At this moment we are focused on what we can do to find Madeleine and not in suing anyone.
Kate – All that I am going to say about this – because I’m not going to waste any time on Mr Amaral – is that as a professional and as a person his behaviour has been a disgrace.

Q – Aren’t you curious to know what the book says?
Kate – What for? It must be nothing but a load of rubbish. It is so secondary… It certainly won’t help to find our daughter. My consolation is that on the cover he calls her Maddie, the name that the media have invented. We never called her anything like that.

Q – But you do know the theory that Gonçalo Amaral defends: Madeleine accidentally died in the Ocean Club apartment and you concealed the body.
Gerry – It really is a waste of time. And we need all the time that we can get to analyze the investigation’s documents, which contain a lot of information that we didn’t know about.
Kate – You just have to cross, loosely, his theory with the process in order to understand that the facts that he reports are not correct.

Q – There is a theory that defends that the coordinator was removed from the investigation due to British political pressure.
Gerry – Who dismissed him?

Q – The PJ’s national director.
Gerry – Then you have to ask him if he was pressured. Or if Gordon Brown discussed the case with him. He surely didn’t.

Q – He also resigned. And largely due to this process.
Gerry – That was not what I was told. Apparently he had a vision of the police itself that was different from the one held by the Justice Minister.

Q – In a final analysis, they both left the PJ because the investigation failed.
Gerry – That’s not our fault. I do not criticize the authorities over not trying to find Madeleine. It doesn’t matter anymore. Now all that matters is that we do everything to try to find her, through our own methods.

Q – Did you ever get to know Gonçalo Amaral?
Kate – The question is the other way around: did he get to know us?

There are photographs of her all over the house

Gerry has returned to his work as a cardiologist. Kate did not exercise medicine again. Twins Sean and Amelie fill up her days as a mother

Q – How has your life changed with the disappearance of Madeleine?
Gerry – Independently of what happens, it will never be the same again. If you talk to the parents of other abducted children, they also mention this parallel life which we entered. Sean and Amelie, being so young, force us to introduce a certain normalcy in our lives, to make it normal for them. And it’s them who, for moments, make it normal for us. But it will never be normal for us. They are aged three and a half, and they are very, very happy.

Q – Did you explain to the twins what happened to their sister?
Kate – They perceive Madeleine’s absence perfectly. I have no doubt whatsoever. But they don’t know the details. They know that she disappeared and that we’re looking for her.
Gerry – We were advised concerning what we should tell them, how and when. Larger explanations are kept for later. We realize that they miss their older sister. They know that her not being with us is not a good thing, and they hope that she returns.

Q – How do you keep Madeleine present in your lives?
Kate – There are photographs of her all over the house. And we speak about her with the twins every day – it’s an important part of their lives. Sean and Amelie talk about her and still include her in their playing… If they receive sweets, they say “Let’s keep one for Madeleine”. Or “When she comes home I’ll give her this or that”. It’s endearing and it makes our days less difficult.

Q – Did you fear that you might lose custody over Sean and Amelie because your behaviour was considered to be negligent?
Gerry – We were not negligent, we did what any reasonable parent would do. But we deeply lament what happened, because in our action, someone saw an opportunity to take Madeleine. I’m an optimist person. I never thought that something like this could happen.

Q – Did you change the manner in which you deal with Sean and Amelie?
Gerry – We are more protective and less trusting. We never left our children alone again and many families will never do so again because of us.
Kate – Now we think about everything that can happen, about predators, abductors. We don’t even let go of them in the shopping centre.

€1.200.000

The McCanns say that the fund has spent €1.2 million with the private investigation. But the reward of €3 million still stands

Q – How much have you spent on the private investigation so far?
Gerry – Approximately one million pounds, over the past ten months, paid with money from the FindMadeleine fund. A substantial sum was also spent on our defence, but two benefactors have covered that expense, which means that the fund was solely used in the search for our daughter.

Q – Do you maintain the offer of 2.5 million ponds to whoever finds Madeleine?
Gerry – We do not control that reward, but everything leads me to believe that it still stands. And that there will also be money available for whoever supplies credible information.
Kate – It’s a lot of money, but we cannot set limits, a child is priceless. We’ll pay whatever is necessary.

Q – Is there still money left in the fund?
Gerry – There is still some money left. Recently, British newspapers (‘Express newspapers’) paid us a compensation of 550 thousand pounds, which fed the fund. That had an important impact. And there are still donations, people who send money directly.

Q – But less than in the beginning, before you were made arguidos.
Gerry – Of course! Those who were in doubt stopped contributing. Many write to us asking for forgiveness because they believed in our guilt. We know that we have to make an effort for people to know that there is no evidence that Madeleine is dead and that we were not involved in the disappearance.

Other issues

Dogs – “We read everything that we found about these dogs that detect cadavers. It was due to them that we became suspects”

Clues – “The sightings continue. Since May we received one thousand phone calls and an equal number of emails, some containing relevant data”

Media exposure – “Appearing in the media was never good. We did it to publicize Madeleine’s face and to find her. We failed”

Background
Details of two hours of conversation

Kate and Gerry are different. More relaxed, or conformed. It is difficult to tell. “The twins force us to a certain normalcy”, the mother explains. It’s been 16 months and the mystery of the disappearance of Madeleine McCann remains unsolved.
The parents have already been victims of a tragedy and suspects of a terrible crime. The process was archived, but they are judged every day. Gerry agrees: “From the moment when the suspicion is installed, we can never prove our innocence”.
This is the first interview since the process was archived, on the 21st of July. It is scheduled in Rothley, a small village in the British Midlands where nobody suspects the McCanns’ guilt. Even less the owner of the Court House Hotel, which is installed in a medieval building and where the interview is held, in the late afternoon last Monday. There is tea with milk and biscuits. There is no guide and there are no forbidden questions.
In almost two hours of interview, Kate and Gerry, both 40, clearly state the intention that supports their availability for the conversation. “We believe that in Portugal someone knows about Madeleine, that it is where the solution for our daughter’s disappearance lies”. And they want that person, whether singular or collective, to know that they search for him, that they ensure his anonymity and that they even give him 2.5 million pounds if he tells them where Madeleine is.
Every day, in their very British house of little bricks, they study a little more of the process of the Polícia Judiciária’s investigation, which they personally consult as it is being translated. They understand “nothing” of Portuguese. From a first reading they reinforced their hope of finding Maddie alive. Nothing tells them that she is dead. The volumes about themselves, from the time when they were made arguidos, have been put aside. “We do not intend to read them”.
They remind them of the days when they were afraid of being arrested in Portugal, accused of Madeleine’s death.

Cadaver scent was detectable in 5A. End of. A child is missing from there. A body was not found and therefore there is no tangible evidence of said body, does NOT mean there wasn't one. It seems most odd that the 'parents' and their lackeys will not tolerate for one minute the chance that there could have been a cadaver, that the dogs were correct. This, in itself, is suspicious. If my daughter were missing and Eddie came along and alerted only in MY apartment I would feel utterly stricken and horrified, I wouldn't immediately try to discredit the dogs. In fact all they do is sue everyone in sight and discredit any being, canine or human, who suggests death in their apartment. Most of the donated money has been spent on lawyers and PR; shows the value they place on the so called search for their daughter.
Eddie and Keela have had numerous successes, I have not read of a false alert only false negatives. There is always a certain desperation that the pros display in any thread concerning the dogs. As for Gerry's flippant remarks, he has made so many I've lost count. Wtf moments for the vast majority of normal people, who incidentally are turning in droves away from support of the Mccanns. I heard a conversation in the hairdressers only the other day and the common view was at best that their behaviour was strange and at worst that they were directly involved in her 'disappearance'. There are not many of the dewy eyed adorers left, they can be mostly found here.

Would anyone here get on a plain or tube train, if sniffer dogs alerted to explosives on it?? I very much doubt it. They know their job. The same as those 2 highly trained cadaver and blood dogs do. They are not human, they don't pick and choose,they don't make things up or lie, they use their noses and just do what they are trained to do, no more and no less and highly successfully I might add. It just seems mighty strange they only alerted in one apartment and car, and only one person is missing and that is Madeleine.

If a sniffer dog sniifed explosives then no-one would be getting anywhere but that is not a good analogy, as these dogs didn't sniff anything they reacted as if there was evidence there but there was none, other than a bit of blood that didn't match Madeleoine. now if a sniffer dog sniffed something and reacted as though there was explosives and the object examined and nothing found then, now you have an analogy, would you think the dog got it wrong it would you refuse to accept there was no explosives there?

or even better... this is gonna be good, trained dogs to find explosives can sniff both the weapons themselves but also cheeseburgers, lets pretend the smell is identical to dogs, so somone is stopped going through the underground, the dog goes loopy, the handlers take the individual and search them, they find no explosives but he is eating a mcdonalds, do you refuse to let him on his way?

or even better... this is gonna be good, trained dogs to find explosives can sniff both the weapons themselves but also cheeseburgers, lets pretend the smell is identical to dogs, so somone is stopped going through the underground, the dog goes loopy, the handlers take the individual and search them, they find no explosives but he is eating a mcdonalds, do you refuse to let him on his way?

Oh tyra you are coming out with some stupid analagies are you not. Weapon and cheeseburgers fgs, but they are not trained to sniff both are they. So if they sniff explosives then that is what they are trained for.

Of course there is no tangible evidence, but the cadaver dog smelt cadaver scent, just because there was no body there, doesn't mean the dog was wrong.

The dog could have been alerting to blood.

Eddie has been used before to trace blood.

And Keela is not there to corroborate Eddie's findings.

Keela will only alert to blood that can be found whereas Eddie will alert to residual scent.

Sorry but I don't think that this is totally accurate. Keela will alert to the scent of blood even when the amount of blood is too small to be forensically detected and analysed.

How does one go about quantifying the accuracy of a positive alert if there is no known way to establish the presence of blood?

I thought it was Eddie who gave the more general alert and then Keela will point out the specific area of interest.

Grime says in one of his videos that if Keela alerts there will be blood present.

There is one example in this case where a Keela alert is not corroborated by the forensics.

blood to such small proportions that it is unlikely to be recovered by the forensic

science procedures in place at this time due to its size or placement."

So how does one go about quantifying the accuracy of a positive alert if there is no other known way to establish the presence of blood?

Well some would believe that because she only alerts to blood then there must have been blood. Apart from that - who knows?

But in the Madeleine case there was always some stuff where she alerted.

It's a paradox.
There's no way of knowing (or proving) she's alerting to blood, or if it's a false alert, unless blood is found.

No blood was found on the curtains to which she alerted. She didn't alert in the bathroom where a man cut himself shaving.

Whos blood was it? There is no forensics that it belonged to Madeleine.

Er, REPEAT, I am not allowed to post my reasons as this would I believe contravene the terms and conditions of my gagging order.

Apart from that, Eddie didn't bark in 10 places in Praia da Luz for nothing.

He was trained to bark/alert at human cadaverine, a substance which starts to be emitted from the human body from 90 to 120 minutes after the moment of death.


BULL Bennett and you know it. If there is evidence you can post it up with NO FEAR OF PROSECUTION BECAUSE IT WOULD BE THE TRUTH.
You are requested to stop spreading LIES Bennett.

SO ONCE AGAIN SHOW ME WHERE THE EVIDENCE IS TO BACK UP THE DOGS.

Well this is the thing.
How can Grime say that she has never given a false positive?
Does he just say that the sample was too small/unrecoverable every time the dog's alert is not corroborated by forensic analysis?

That's very handy.....
