Later..
In the spring of 2008 – almost a year after Madeleine was last seen – the PJ decided they wanted to conduct a re-enactment in Praia da Luz of the night of 3 May 2007. The participants required were Gerry, me, Fiona, Dave, Jane, Russ, Rachael, Matt, Dianne and Jes Wilkins, to whom Gerry chatted in the street that night just after his last glimpse of Madeleine. They weren’t interested in using actors or stand-ins. So either everyone agreed or the reconstruction wouldn’t go ahead.
Our understanding was that as arguidos, Gerry and I were obliged to attend. The other witnesses received reasonably friendly emails from the PJ, via the British police, inviting them to take part. They were a bit baffled and replied requesting more details about the purpose of this belated re-enactment. It seemed it would not be filmed, or at any rate, not for information-gathering through public broadcast. Our friends had watched, with increasing horror, what had happened to us. If they were suspicious that the PJ might be trying to use them to somehow strengthen a flimsy case against us, or even to implicate one of them, it would be understandable. There were worries, too, about the likelihood of a media furore blowing up around the whole thing, especially as the proposed dates had already been leaked to the newspapers.
The biggest concern, though, for all the witnesses approached, was how a reenactment of the kind the PJ were proposing could actually help to find Madeleine. This question remained unanswered.

I wonder who the couple was...Verdi wrote:Apropos of the PJ reconstruction
British consul Bill Henderson and Ambassador John Buck were visiting us on a fairly regular basis and we were seeing the Leicestershire FLOs every day. The flow of information, however, was slow and limited.
The Portuguese police were divulging very little to the British police and vetoing many of their suggestions – bringing out specialist dogs, for example, or staging a reconstruction.
What was forthcoming, particularly in terms of the quality and depth of the investigation, would become increasingly concerning to us. Grounds for elimination, for instance, often seemed very flimsy. I remember Gerry and me exchanging quizzical looks after the FLOs tried to explain how one couple had been ruled out of the inquiry. When we asked them if they were comfortable with this decision, there was an awkward pause before they replied, ‘No, not really.’

Re: Prosecution Exhibit 1: 'madeleine' - What's in the book?
So, in 2007 the McCanns were disgruntled because the PJ weren't pulling their weight, they were secretive and refused to follow the advice of deploying trained dogs and conducting a reconstruction.
Well, when the specialist dogs were deployed only a few weeks later, the McCanns drastically changed their tune, trained dogs were unreliable - ask Sandra!
The reconstruction the MCanns thought was essential to advance the investigation, they drastically changed their tune one year later when the prospect of a reconstruction became a reality.
How could either the dogs or a reconstruction assist the search for Madeleine - the fictitious search financed by good honest people who sent their hard earned cash, with all good faith, to a limited company with no accountability other than a moral responsibility?
Simple answer - they couldn't!
What could have helped the investigation into the disappearance of little Madeleine McCann was authoritative acknowledgement of the dogs evidence and participation by the key players in an official reconstruction, as requested by the PJ.
Please don't treat us like a lot of fools.
Madeleine who?

Re: Prosecution Exhibit 1: 'madeleine' - What's in the book?
More astonishing still is the very fact that the Met Police have seemingly accepted, without question, the McCann groups witness statements taken in May 2007 - and then the ridiculously planned rogatory interviews in April the following year.
They were said to be 'coordinating and reviewing' all the evidence collated by Portuguese and UK police and the private dicks employed by team McCann. Didn't it occur to them that something was very amiss with the conflicting witness statements and the extraordinary conduct of the hired detectives?
According to former DCI Andy Redwood, they were taking everything back to the beginning - no stone unturned 'n all that. Why didn't they do just that? If Operation Grange was to be a bona-fide review/re-investigation force, why were they so selective?

Talking of books .... I'm astonished to discover (haven't checked it out for a very long time) that madeleine by KATE MCCANN is still up for grabs over on Amazon. All those torn genitals and 'effing tossers, by rights it should have been removed from the shelves in May 2011.
More astonishing still is this review less than a month ago..
I think Mr Paterson must have been in hibernation over the last twelve years, along with the enigmatic Mr Totman. Either that or it's a source close to the family.
Take heart good people, you can still be the proud owner of a hardcover 'collectible' from (?) £14.50 or a second-hand edition for 24p - if you don't mind getting your hands dirty!

So Mr. Paterson -we have all taken a chance with our children?. Well count me out of that because I never have. What does that even mean?
Twaddle.
He will continue to be vigilant for Maddie?
Well good luck with that because thousands of others have been vigilant and nothing has come of it (including police investigations involving 2 countries). NOTHING - so good luck with your vigilance.

Why I write fake online reviews
By Matthew Cannon, Francesca Gillett & Patrick Evans BBC News
17 April 2019
"I've learned never to rely on reviews for anything," says Iain Taylor, from East Sussex.
In his spare time and to supplement his income, the 44-year-old says he writes fake reviews online in exchange for money and free products.
"I have written reviews from numbing creams to eBooks to downloadable independent films," he says.
"I think it's bad - but I think everyone's doing it," says Mr Taylor, describing himself as "cynical".
"Since I started doing it I tell my family and friends not to trust reviews.
"If you are going to buy something you should do more research than look at a couple of five-star reviews on Amazon."
He says writers are paid to buy the product and then leave a review, meaning the review can be verified.

Re: Prosecution Exhibit 1: 'madeleine' - What's in the book?
I was struck by how common it is for such crimes to be repeated over and over again by the same people. If Madeleine’s abductor was a sex offender or a child trafficker, for example, the chances are that he would have offended before. I cast my mind back to what the British consul had told me in the police station in Portimão that first day about the reports there had been of intruders getting into bed with children. I needed to know more about this.
I got in touch with the retired British consul for the Algarve. He told me that he used to have regular monthly meetings with British tour operators along the coast in Albufeira, at which crime was invariably one of the topics covered. At one of these meetings in August 2006 he had been informed by the tour operators of the spate of incidents I’d heard about the day after Madeleine was taken, in which an intruder had got into holiday apartments at night, climbed into children’s beds and subjected them to various forms and degrees of molestation. It seemed the attacker would often lock the door to the parents’ bedroom before assaulting the child. In one case, the paedophile had put on some of the father’s aftershave in an attempt to soothe or deceive the child.
It was believed that this offender (or offenders) watched for patterns and routines in a family’s behaviour, established ‘weaknesses’ in the security of their apartment and determined in advance where parents and children slept. Cold shivers ran down my spine as it hit home that this might have applied to us. The British tour operators had been keen for this information to remain confidential (and you don’t have to be a genius to work out why that might be). I pressed the former British consul on what happened afterwards. Had there been an investigation? Had anybody been convicted? He wasn’t sure but thought that an immigrant construction worker had been arrested and released pending trial, which was likely to take place some years down the line. Unbelievable.

Re: Prosecution Exhibit 1: 'madeleine' - What's in the book?
For several months we invested some time and even resources in following up reports from some of the thousands of psychics who have contacted us; time and resources that would, with hindsight, have been better used in more orthodox investigative work. Much of the information we received, and still receive, is extremely vague. Describing a white house near a dirt track is not helpful. There are millions of white houses in the world and millions of dirt tracks.
A few years down the line, my experience has turned me from open-minded ingénue into confirmed sceptic. Sometimes a very resentful sceptic. Well, they can’t all be right, can they? Madeleine can’t be in a thousand different locations. Even after Gerry and I decided enough was enough, family and friends have felt obliged to pursue information that has found its way to them, occasionally travelling overseas at their own expense, just in case.
Just in case. This is at the core of what I find most upsetting about the visions of the psychics et al. In our desperation to find Madeleine we are extremely vulnerable, and in our position it is very difficult to ignore any information. Even though Gerry and I are scientists by inclination and profession, we still get reeled in. In some letters, a shifting of responsibility, laced with emotional blackmail, comes into play. ‘Well, it’s up to you now,’ psychics might write. ‘I’ve done my bit,’ thus discharging what they feel is their duty to Madeleine. Some have gone a step further and added, ‘I suppose it depends how much you want to find your daughter.’

THE TIDE TURNS
On Saturday 30 June, a piece entitled ‘Pact of Silence’, written by journalists Felícia Cabrita and Margarida Davim, appeared in a Portuguese newspaper. The criticism implied in the title was in itself interesting, given that this was a country where disregard for judicial secrecy carried the threat of a prison sentence.
This was probably the first article openly to cast doubt on our version of the events of 3 May. It raised suspicions about us and our friends, about our characters and about our potential involvement in Madeleine’s disappearance.

The Truth of the Lie
Friday 4th May 2007
I was taken into a large room containing several desks. Gerry had asked João Carlos if he could be allowed to stay with me while I was questioned because he was extremely worried about my psychological state. I was grateful to João Carlos for agreeing, with the proviso that Gerry remained seated behind me. I appreciate now that this would not be acceptable practice in most police investigations....
As I recounted how I’d found Madeleine’s bedclothes neatly folded back my voice faltered. Every now and then Gerry would put a hand on my shoulder or give me a reassuring squeeze.

Took this from Verdi's posting earlier in the year:
From Kate McC's book
"I was struck by how common it is for such crimes to be repeated over and over again by the same people. If Madeleine’s abductor was a sex offender or a child trafficker, for example, the chances are that he would have offended before."
And also, by this logic, he/they would have repeated the "crime" again more recently. Any evidence of a similar crime with same modus operandi, in the same area, post the Madeleine case? Thought not.

The whole situation seems to be getting more unbelievable.
We’ve always said that whatever happens, we need to know the truth. I never thought that would include the need for us to have our names cleared.
What is going on with people? Where is the common sense?
Dear God. Please bless and protect our Madeleine wherever she is. Please give us and our families the strength to get through this.
Please give the police the wisdom, intelligence and honesty to solve this crime and find Madeleine. Amen x

Can the Blessed St Katherine of Rothley not see that it is not only unbelievable but palpable nonsense - on stilts (as Bentham would have said ) ?
"Would OFTEN lock the door to the parent's bedroom".
How many bedroom doors have a lock on the OUTSIDE which does not communicate to the inside.?
In one case, the paedophile had put on some of the father’s aftershave in an attempt to soothe or deceive the child
So this one has not only entered the apartment undetected, and locked the parents in the bedroom, having checked they were both there, but has then gone into the bathroom, rooted around in the cabinet - which would necessitate turning the light on - found the father's aftershave, applied it, put it back, turned the light off, exited, and then entered the child's room.
Does anyone know a child which LIKES the smell of its father's aftershave, particularly a few seconds after first application ?
Children are repelled by strong smells, after-shave, Scotch, green peppers, curry, . . .
This is on a level with "filling the apartment with knock-out gas", so beloved of the mendacious Gutter Press
It is not merely unbelievable,.
It is total nonsense.

Anyone ever heard of a trial run. Hide in an apartment the night before and watch to find out exactly where the aftershave is kept. Could it be in the cabinet or on the vanity unit. Oh err why risk turning on a bathroom light when they could know exactly where it would be kept if a trial run was done the night before?

How come the British media didn't spread it all over the pages, British parents locked inside their bedroom whilst predatory paedophile molested their child?
They would have gotten thousands for their story initially when it happened. along with derogatory comments about the Portuguese police in the media as well as the country in general.
Back then as well as now, if a holiday maker stubbed a toe or a seagull crapped on their head, or the donkey refused to walk up the path ( forgetting the fact that said tourist is rocking in at 25 stone plus) or the sand wasn't the right color or the location was filled with foreigners and the food was all foreign or they got injured and the insurance refused to pay out or, more recently going abroad sans insurance, getting badly hurt or getting sick and then setting up a gofundme to pay hospital bills or transport home.
Every story would be accompanied by a sad face holding up the bill or plaster cast etc, the so called "Daily Mail face" frequently accompanied by the value of the house.
In the 12 years that have passed, we have not heard of one abduction or abduction attempt of a child from his/her bed in PDL and we have only heard of alleged attempts that happened earlier, attempts which would have been splattered across front pages.
We have had a multitude of alleged suspicious characters seen around the area, both male and female,
one image showing two drawings of the same character as described by different witnesses which have regularly be claimed as being the Podesta brothers in order to divert our attention in that it looks a lot like gerry.
Another image described as "George Harrison man" also bears an eerily strong resemblance to kate wearing a 70's style porn star moustache.
So much so that i remember seeing it in a forum, probably the 3amigos forum, and someone had made a gif showing Harrison man morph into kate.
Not forgetting the sketches of the man and woman seen by one alleged witness who looked eerily similar to the mccanns
yet another e fit put out looked like gerry mccann and russell o'brian and then we had tanner opening her mouth and inserting both feet in the Panorama interview when she was talking about how her alleged sighting of the alleged abductor carrying the bundle which had over time morphed into Maddie and saying "i carried her
We have witness descriptions that sound like kate and gerry and also artist impressions some of which look like kate and gerry.
We have the mccanns pretty much ignoring the statements from the Smiths in their mockumentary and the drawings/efits up until they had no choice, the Crime watch programme, a special on the mccanns, and what seemed wonderfully pointed barbs at the mccanns by having gerry sat under the image of an alleged suspect that looked the spitting image of him.
could it be that someone from the studio was making their view on the case known?
Was there an outbreak of locks on the outside of parents doors?
Parents waking up and seeing a lock suddenly appearing on the outside of their door but not on the children's rooms?
What happened when they left and a new family came in and the parents decided to sleep in the other bedroom?
Did someone break in and swap the lock over?
If we were to believe all the stories the mccanns and chums as well as clarrie paid for and stated in the book and various interviews and statements, PDL would have no tourists as the town would be filled with paedophiles and perverts. burglars and thieves, a virtual criminal paradise.
PDL is nothing like how the mccanns and chums have portrayed.
The alleged paedophile has never struck since the mccanns and chums scarpered back to the UK post haste, how strange since we know paedophiles never attack just the once unless they were caught early and even then we do not know how many times he has committed prior to the arrest.
It is rare for a paedophile to be caught their first crime.
Given their claims that Maddie is still alive as there is no evidence to show otherwise (there is) in the 12 years plus since Maddie died (alleged abduction)why have they not taken part in a police reconstruction along with the tapas 7?
Why have they not repeatedly called out to the alleged abductor or those who may know who did it or where Maddie is?
Why did they not mention rewards when offered by the NOTW or any reward since?
Why has it always been all about them and how they feel?
Why did clarrie quit a politically linked permanent job to work for the mccanns as a PR spokesman?
Why did gerry's brother john take indefinite leave from his job at Astra Zeneca?
Why did they need prompting to call out to Maddie?
Why did kate positively bloom and glow in the days after the alleged abduction?
Why, despite being compelled to do so by law as arguidos, did they get their chums to set a whole plethora of demands and excuses such as to make any kind of reconstruction impossible?
Why did they say taking part in a reconstruction would not help find Maddie?
Why have they repeatedly told the world Maddie is alive and findable yet have also told us Maddie is dead?
Why have they repeatedly told the world Maddie is alive and findable yet never physically searched for Maddie as admitted by kate in a TV interview and also in various interviews and her book telling us they couldn't wait for it to get light to search when parental instinct alone would have had them running around searching and calling out to Maddie?
Perhaps Maddie is trapped in a parental bedroom which has locks on the outside and was forgotten about accidentally?
Those pub quizzes can be pretty hard on the brain especially with the distraction of having a pretty quiz mistress and rather a lot of alcohol imbibed as it was their holiday to.
Then there were the flights out for various family members who apparently lounged around the pool getting freebies and not forgetting the infamous birthday party for Maddie where alcohol was imbibed and everyone had a good time even to there being a birthday cake for the missing girl.
Nowhere have we been told that the families of kate and gerry ever assisted in the search for Maddie, although the mileage on the hire car was quite high given the car was primarily used for collecting and returning family members to the airport and that the hire car was supposedly used to transfer garbage to appropriate bins and also to move their belongings to the new apartment after they had to vacate apt. 5a which resulted in the smell of rotting meat and fish being in the car requiring the trunk to be left open overnight for several nights and also the transference of DNA from Maddie to various items and locations via dirty diapers, sweaty sandals, occasional nosebleeds and from hastily grabbed belongings.
To cover up one lie leaving an unexplained gap in timelines or forensic evidence they have to tell another lie and so it goes on.
There will always be a gap exposed when a lie is revealed, or an unexpected excuse or story breaking which is timed to be covered by a new breaking news story or to distract us and point to something minimal from something which paints the mccanns in a bad light or exposes a big lie or points to their involvement in the death, disposal and filing a false police report.
We also have the rabid mccann supporters defending the mccanns, coming up with excuses for their behavior and saying the words about Maddie that the mccanns cannot bring themselves to say, who also threaten to sue anybody who says anything against the mccanns.
Those very same supporters who on opening their mouths and typing reveal a lot more about the case and the mccanns than they they should or think they do.
It could well be one of the tapas chums that breaks down and confesses their role in the case due to a guilty conscience or perhaps during a custody battle whilst getting divorced.
It could well be one of the twins spilling the beans to the police or media to get back at the parents for something they did to the twin(s) after Maddie disappeared or didn't do to/for the twins.
It could well be one or both of the twins going to the police to tell them what they heard and/or saw during that week's vacation up to the point Maddie vanished or what they heard and/or saw in the following hours/days/weeks/months and years.
A secret is only a secret if only one person knows.
The more people who know the secret, the greater the chance someone will talk especially if the secret concerns a serious crime such as homicide or paedophilia.
The person may not have been involved in the actual crime(s) itself rather they may have been roped in unwillingly or coerced perhaps even blackmailed or threatened.
They are the ones who will break, the guilt eating away at them until they decide to talk and the guilt and stress is instantly released.
They are also the ones who could use the knowledge as a weapon against their partner should they divorce and a custody battle ensues or a friendship ends either over time or in a big row and then they decide to talk, perhaps even with a book deal in mind. how they were threatened/blackmailed etc and now they can reveal their story, you know how it goes.
Had only the mccanns been involved they could possibly get away with it, perhaps wondering what the twinssaw or heard that they could remember.
Once the tapas7 got involved,it is not if they will get caught and charged but when.
too many people know and what held them together as a group 12 years ago has long gone.
I would be surprised if the taps 7 keep in touch with the mccanns, to visit them or go away together.
I wonder if the tapas 7 stayed friends with each other, talking to each other regularly, visiting or going away together.
Where 2 or more get together Maddie will crop up, the elephant in the room has anyone thought of going to the police?
What about crime stoppers?
Maybe try and get a deal?
Throw the mccanns under the bus if it looks like the mccanns will crack (read kate) and throw them under the bus?
Time will tell.

Choosing to share this personal account with the world has been much harder. Of course we want the truth to be told. For the past four years it has been excruciating to stand by as all kinds of tales have circulated about Madeleine’s disappearance and about Gerry, me and our family.
The press have published a mountain of stories, often without knowing, and perhaps caring, whether or not there was any substance to them, causing great distress to our family and, more importantly, hindering the search for Madeleine.
Others have seized the opportunity to profit from our agony by writing books about our daughter, several of them claiming to reveal ‘what really happened’. Which is extraordinary, given that the only person who knows this is the person who abducted her on 3 May 2007.
Many of these authors have no first-hand knowledge of the case and have based their theories on the half-truths, speculation and full-blown lies appearing in the media and on the internet.

Such as almost everything written in the Olive Press by Jon Clarke, and in the Sun by 'best friend' Tracey Kandohla ?
Or do you mean different half-truths, speculation, and full-blown lies ?

Re: Prosecution Exhibit 1: 'madeleine' - What's in the book?
On Monday 27 August [2007] I had a call from Esther McVey, a Liverpool friend from my late teens, by then a television presenter and Conservative parliamentary candidate.
Esther was on the board of Madeleine’s Fund. She said she was scared by our current situation and uncomfortable with what she felt was a ‘political shift’. For our own safety, and ‘to protect Madeleine’s good name’ (I wasn’t quite sure what she meant by that), she thought we ought to come home. It seemed I was being pressurized from all quarters and I didn’t like it.
As it happened, however, the very same day we learned that we would need to vacate our villa by 11 September – news that put a different complexion on matters and forced Gerry and me to tackle this difficult and emotionally charged issue. We could have rented somewhere else in Praia da Luz, of course, but it would have been a lot of hassle for not much gain if we were intending to leave before long anyway. We had waited in vain for the police to call us back for interview. Finally, and very reluctantly, I agreed to set a date for our departure. Monday 10 September it would have to be. It was one of the toughest decisions I’ve ever had to take.

How I marvel at the concept of hindsight.
Despite having declared the determination to remain in Portugal until Madeleine McCann was found, Ms Healy and her old man decided, late August 2007, that it was time to leave Portugal.
Then came the call to attend police HQ for further questioning when the 'arguido' status was declared. This situation occurred on 7th September 2007 - two days later, slightly ahead of schedule it would appear - the McCanns fled Portuguese soil and took a flight back to Blighty.
The rest, as they say, is history.
