David Jones, Daily Mail: "I have a terrible nagging doubt the McCanns might be involved"
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Almost four months have passed since I first began to investigate the harrowing case of a beautiful little girl who appeared to have vanished into thin air, shortly after being tucked up in bed by her parents on holiday in Portugal.
Like a great many people in Britain, and millions more around the world, I have since become fascinated, almost to the point of obsession, with the Madeleine McCann mystery.
I have travelled repeatedly to the Algarve to interview potential witnesses and suspects; retraced the abductor's possible escape routes and explored all manner of theories.
And I end most days by reading the strangely breezy and matter-of-fact web-log kept by Madeleine's surgeon father, Gerry.
My curiosity has been heightened at least partly because those haunting last photographs of a beautiful, carefree child playing in the sunshine resemble so many treasured pictures in my own family album.
As a father of four, I can also identify with the dilemma that apparently confronted Gerry and Kate McCann on that fateful May evening in Praia da Luz. How do you enjoy an evening out with friends on holiday, and keep your toddler safe?
Yet something else has kept me utterly absorbed in Madeleine's case, and it is certainly not the McCanns' moth-to-a-flame courtship of the media (their latest interview, with Paris Match, is due to be published imminently).

Where is David Jones now?
Does anyone know if he still writes for the Daily Mail? Perhaps he's been sent for retraining to ensure that he toes the party line!

david jones review of the book
David Jones wrote a 'pass the sickbag' kind of review in May 2011 in the Daily Mail so his doubts must have passed. Maybe they retrained him as an earlier poster suggested.

Oh dear, his conversion to the Authorised Version is covered in the topic "DAVID JONES: Kate McCann's haunting account makes me rue the day I doubted them". There's going to be a mass run for sick buckets now.

Daily Mail article
This article is one of the worst - outside of The Sun of course - I've ever read and that's saying something. He has even swallowed the "note left in the restaurant which told the abductor that there were unattended children" nonsense. Whatever or whoever can have persuaded a once sensible journalist to come up with such unmitigated twaddle?

Yes, generally a bit of 'Common Purpose' training reprogrammes the dissenters into obedient citizens. Very 1984
