NEW E-Fits?- Express Maddy: Pictures of new suspect

@Mina76 wrote:...earlier this year, I was around them for a number of days. I won't say where because I do respect people's privacy, whoever or whatever they may be.
Being a follower but not an avid follower of the case, it did not click who they were at first, until I saw them together (that annoying thing where you are familiar with the faces, but couldn't immediately place them). The first thing I said to my OH was how cold and penetrating GM's eyes were and how unfortunate it was that he always looked like he had a rather smug smirk. The instant I saw these e-fits I said that they are two different views of GM. He has a wide square jaw from straight on that can make his face seem 'fat' or wide, but actually if he lowers or turns, he has quite a pointy chin. It's the hairline, the eyes and the mouth.

Yes exactly, that was my initial thought too.  As the 2 e-fits are of the same man you need to look at them together.  (If you view them as separate entities, then it's easy to conclude a resemblance to other people).  I'm surprised the police who issued these e-fits did not provide a composite image.  

Prof. Peter Hancock of the University of Stirling has just provided animations of the e-fits, including a composite version.  http://psych-survey.stir.ac.uk/McCannComposites.html  The composite does show a strong likeness to GM, although the ears are not right, but then that seems to be the last thing people tend to notice.  Since the BBC airing of the Crimewatch Appeal, several people have called in to give the same name for the e-fit man ... let's see what comes of this.

 Snow, if he made an error, did not afaik correct it and so far there has been no statement from SY refuting this claim, in the way they have denied certain things in the media recently.

I put it on this thread, it was moved to keep similar posts in one place, I will direct you to it asap.

 It was good to hear this from Snow, ITV are saying today that PJ dismissed it and are to blame for the 6 year delay.

  IT IS ON P 2 OF THE THREAD FOR NEW MEMBERS WITH INFO ABOUT THE SMITH SIGHTING.

Thanks for the link.

Will the PIs now face charges of perverting the course of justice for sitting on the information? Will the McCanns explain why they did nothing with the information?

Thats misleading, and since they added the new pictures, no excuse for not removing the old one that is identified...

But bundleman, spottyman, measleman,  cooperman, and all those who allegedly fitted that description, ( including dead paedos in Germany) and all the rest now MUST be removed, since they were all part of the same TANNER conspiracy, stupidity, mistake.
There is now only Smith-man.
SY say so, so it must be true.

The fact that he looks like Gerry is irrelevant.

edit.... was it the PJ who took the Smith statements or the PI?

I heard somewhere (I'll see if I can find it again) that the e-fits came from Private Investigators and were not handed over to the PJ.
