Normally your assigned your own secret identity code when operating a till
So that for reasons of assessing the days/evenings takings etc say there are discrepancies you can pinpoint which member of staff was working and had access to the till

“ When they arrived at the apartment they met her brother, Peter Smith, her sister-in-law, S McD.Smith “ [Aiolfe’s statement]
Their last night so they picked up the bill.
The apartment is jointly owned by Martin, Peter’s father, and AN Other.
So they get a free holiday, and the last meal is probably the way of saying thank you
Just as my friends who come to stay with me for nothing, generally pick up the tab for a trolley load of groceries
half way through, having ‘accidentally’ dropped in a bottle of gin and one of Scotch.
Edited to add
I have just edited it, to try to stop ANOTHER set of conspiracy theories about it NOT being the right Bill and therefore the
the time being irrelevant and mystery people and all the usual stuff.
Thanks for pointing it out

Great work Peter!
Tha addition of Buttons and the Timing along with the Carrying position now all point to someone wanting either the PJ or the Public to believe that Smithman was Gerald P. McCann.
Wasting the PJ’s resources and time. Influencing Public Opinion.
A ploy used constantly by ‘Team McCann’ to this day.

Thoroughly enjoyed reading chapter 63 of Smith-Gerry-Man that PeterMac scrutinised. Thanks for your detailed account PeterMac. I enjoyed the clever scenes "of the unfolding drama" very much! It took me back to my 4th year high school English class. The McKon drama is certainly a tragedy of diversions, sub plots and more. However, I shouldn't have read chapter 63 so late at night (early morning) because I'm wanting to re-read. I'm sure I won't sleep now; I feel my brain is in overdrive.

So on any test the time of the ‘sighting’ of the man-with-child CANNOT be earlier than 2213 ± 3, (Aiofe time). and may be as late as 2240 ± 3 (Martin and Peter time)
That's the kind of time Gerry would have been looking for, if it was Gerry. I'll the read the rest in a little while and see what we think. Bearing in mind the call to police was 22.41. Gerry hasn't been eliminated so far.

Joaquim Baptista: Later, between 22.00 and 22.30, when the witness was in the kitchen, he was informed by a colleague that in the meantime a client had entered the restaurant shouting and that afterwards the whole English had left in a panic.
Jeronimo Salcedas: At that time, at about 22.20 - 22.30 he noticed that there was only one person sitting at the group's table, the oldest of them and he asked her jokingly whether they had left her alone. The person in question said that the others had gone to the apartment to look for a girl who had disappeared. Seconds later Madeleine's father appeared.
And resident Maria da Silva had this to say: Declares further that on the night 03-05-07, she left the apartment at around 21H58?she remembers the exact time because she asked her friend the time and she responded after checking this on the telephone in the lounge. After leaving Block 6, they turned right and after left, passing in front of the block occupied by the McCanns. She states that she saw no movement of people.

I mean, I don't know for sure who all ran back into the Tapas, but why would Gerry be the first to run to the Tapas unless it was to be seen in the Tapas? He had just left the Tapas, what could have been looking for in there?Buzz Shine wrote:It's true there are waiters in the Tapas Bar who suggest an earlier time of 21:30, but there are at least two waiters from the Tapas Bar, who put the time at 22:00 22:30. And there is a resident who appears to support that time, rather than the earlier time of 21:30.

I don't care one jot about being right or wrong, I am just dying to know the truth.
I'll pick away at the rest of it now and try to eliminate Gerry, but it's going to take conclusive evidence.

Also the photograph of the boats. Not a much visited area of PdL I would imagine as not very scenic unless you are into interesting formations of boats to photograph maybe. Also the beach isn't very nice there so would Gerry even know about the area to go and hide a child under an upturned boat? So why is that area suggested?

I just have a teeny weeny question...in the summary you mention the time of potential smithsighting as being 2000. Am I misreading or misunderstanding or maybe a typo? Sorry if my question is stupid.

I note the following that Smith stated in the PJ files, when re-questioned by the Irish police [page 4314 to 4139]
" I would be 60-80% sure that it was Gerard McCann that I met that night carrying a child. I am basing that on his mannerism in the way he carried the child off the plane."
80%+ confidence is required for an eye witness statement, so his claim cannot therefore be relied upon.

Have always been puzzled by Smithman and it crossed my mind that Smithman was to do with timings or days being incorrect in some way or there was some other innocent explanation such as a local carrying his child home from a relatives,, restaurant and so forth, and Smithman thought no more about his relevance. I doubt it was GM or a decoy. You have put excellent explanations across in your chapter which makes it all clear.

The last man Fulcsher wants Martin Smith to identify, is his client. That means he can use the suppression evidence to work on Kate and Gerry. Even if Smithman isn't Gerry, Fulcsher isn't going to try to prove that to the court. He'll work on making the possibility of the opposite being true. They'd rue the day they decided to keep those e-fits stuffed up their jumpers if Fulcsher had anything to do with it.

Not knowing if the Police where going to keep them in Custody at least for Questioning for Hours or Days afterwards?
Unlikely choice I think...
