Coldwater was a chancer and he sucked everyone in.
He was outed when I pointed out the police station in Leicester he claimed the Roggies would be conducted from had been closed for 3 years.
Never to be heard from again

Why is it laughable? Say you were someone that visited the town on a number of occasions over the years and you heard about locals burying/ or getting rid of pets in a certain area....(this may not necessarily be a 'nice' final resting place for pets but somewhere locals could dump pets no questions asked) If you had something to dump you may just do it in this area that has already been prepared.

16:33 Tuesday 3 June 2014
Officers searching an area of scrubland in Praia da Luz, where Madeleine McCann disappeared in 2007, have begun digging.
It comes after British police brought in sniffer dogs on Tuesday to help search the area which is located a five-minute walk from the holiday apartment where she disappeared.
The victim detection dogs, Tito and Muzzy, took part in the 2012 search for murdered schoolgirl April Jones.
At least 30 officers arrived early on Tuesday morning for the second day of the search. Sources understand a team of specialist forensic archaeologists are also working on the site.
They used blue and white police tape to divide the land into sectors for the search. Two sniffer dogs and their handlers joined police in scouring the large cordoned off area while two Portuguese police horses patrolled the perimeter.
Three police tents set up on the site are thought to be where the teams are storing kit and taking drinks breaks rather than covering any significant parts of the site.
The teams spent Monday securing and surveying the site and will soon bring in ground-penetrating radar equipment to try to spot any unusual patterns in the terrain.
Radar expert Rom Gostomski, from London-based firm Sandberg, said "The radar uses electro-magnetic waves that are fired into the sub-surface at a pretty rapid rate and we measure what comes back from those signals".
The hot and predominantly dry climate on the Algarve, where temperatures regularly top 30 degrees Celsius, mean the ground will be far drier than in northern Europe.
"GPR works best in dry conditions - it doesn't like wet, saturated ground because of the high dissolved mineral content" Mr. Gostomski explained.
"In a dry country like Portugal you'll generally get much, much better data and penetrate much deeper".
The 'Find Madeleine' campaign continues on social media
There are different types of radar equipment the police could use, but generally the devices allow officers to monitor the ground at least two metres below the surface.
Mr. Gostomski added "If you have got a buried object that is sufficiently different, with different properties from the surrounding area, it will show up very, very clearly; whereas if you have got a gradual change it can be difficult to detect".
Scotland Yard say they will not provide a "running commentary" on the searches.
Former Scotland Yard detective John O'Connor told Newstalk Breakfast earlier he thinks at least two people were involved in Madeline's disappearance.
Now then......now then......
Are the pair of doctors sleeping well, or suffering a sudden on set of GAD ?

Kate and Gerry McCann are being kept up to date on the latest news in the hunt for their daughter in a wasteland near where she disappeared in Praia da Luz, but are not braced for any "significant" new developments, due to the complicated nature of the search.

Like PeterMac, I thought there seemed to be some telling reactions from the police gathered round that pit. The woman seemed to be trying to get away and the men shocked.

Yes, I agree. I thought the woman was turning to press herself into the shoulder of the man next to her. I do hope this won't become yet another iconic image of this case.

Officers have begun digging and clearing an area of scrubland in Praia da Luz as part of the investigation into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann.
Sky Correspondent Tom Parmenter described the clearing and digging operation as "meticulous" and said officers were scouring through soil near yellow flag markers.
He said: "We have seen British police officers focusing on this particular scrap of land.
"They are moving stones and soil from the top of a piece of corrugated iron which has quite a hole around it."
He added that teams had been mapping the area over the last 24 hours and Portuguese workmen had been clearing some of the undergrowth with strimmers ahead of the search operation.
It comes after British police brought in sniffer dogs on Tuesday to help search the area, which is a five-minute walk from the apartment where then three-year-old Madeleine disappeared in 2007.

No surprise the McCanns don't stick around for the digging - they never do. Remember this from 7 years ago, when a map was sent to the Dutch newspaper Der Telegraaf, supposedly showing where Madeleine was buried, and the PJ started digging, what did they do? Instead of going to the digging site they whizzed off on a taxi run to Faro Airport to pick up Jon Corner:
GERRY'S BLOG DAY 42 14/6/07: "Six weeks since Madeleine disappeared. We believe Madeleine is alive and I am glad to say that following yesterday's letter in the Telegraaf (Netherlands) there has been no evidence that Madeliene is in the area indicated although there will be further searches tomorrow. Kate and I picked up a friend from Faro airport who has been instrumental in helping with the campaign. He has been fantastic, producing the DVD of Madeleine to ‘Don’t you forget about me’ "

This lair thing. If it has been hidden away, unsearched in scrubland would it be fair to assume if anything is found in it the perpretator/s were only made aware of such a hides hole through someone with local knowledge?

But Coldwater was a wind-up merchant, no?
It's premature to discount CW.
Wait until the case is over and you will have your answer.
If the PJ had had forensic evidence from a large sheet of cold metal at the time Coldwater made that post, they'd hardly have put the sheet of metal back in the scrubland, would they?
Coldwater was very plausible in some ways but also came out with real rubbish (eg he claimed a SY detective he knew socially told him details of the case at a barbecue - yeh, as if).
Also, he was clearly not expecting the case to be shelved, at which point he disappeared never to be heard of again (not as Coldwater, anyway).
To say "Wait until the case is over and you will have your answer" is just silly, sorry. In my opinion, if one or two things Coldwater said turn out to be true, it is because they were lucky guesses, not because he had some inside information.
I'm assuming it's a he, could be a she of course .....
That's only your opinion, nothing else, not proof of anything.
His cover was blown when the data at 3A was hacked. He was targeted by pro and got into a spot of bother.
What would you do in that situation ? Desist to protect your family (and source possibly) ? Or take further risk?

Of course it's only my opinion, as is much of what I post here.
So you think it's completely possible that a British detective kept Coldwater updated on this case over a few chicken wings on a barbecue do you?
And that Coldwater then passed on all this information on a public forum?
Pigs might fly

Mr Amaral put forward this exact theory (going by the evidence) in 2007.
If Mr Amaral's theory is proven correct I will look forward to reading all the grovelling apologies written by the British newspapers.
I totally agree, Hicks. I had a glance at the Sun while out today and the article referred to GA being the disgraced cop who was removed from the investigation. It made my blood boil. Certain among the press should be sued for defamation when this is over. And those who put their oar in to that investigation at a crucial stage should be publically outed and made accountable.
In the event that this case attains the justice we and many have pushed for, I believe our work should continue until every bigoted sycophant is made to bow their head in shame. They never gave MBM a thought, so intent were they on sucking up.. The whole lot of them make me sick. One thing it has taught me is that I will be far more discriminating about who I pay heed to in the MSM in future. Some have shown themselves to be in the terminal stages of moral collapse.
Also, I would like to say to Cynic Al - that was one superb post on page 74. Very thought-provoking indeed.

I agree. Peter. The body language is interesting and there's a lot of drama in these scene. I don't think seasoned coppers would turn away from a dead dog.And the woman IMO is seeking some brief comfort from a shoulder, rather then speeding away.

Apologies for getting wildly off topic here, but does anyone have a record of coldwater's posts from 3A's? I remember there was a whole lot of stuff he said that was just plain wrong and never appeared in the case files. But before the files were made public and when the press turned pro-McCann, I wanted to believe him.

No... Something changed. And someone wanted this playing out VERY publicly. They wanted the debates. They wanted cameras once again to focus on two old sniffer dogs, and a harassed and beleaguered Portuguese detective. If those effecting a 'cover up' didn't care about the testimony of two sniffer dogs and a relentless Portuguese Inspector Clouseau before, there is absolutely no more reason to pay them any heed five years later, let alone seven...
Unless something changed. And those involved wanted the public to see that something had changed. And a public that has its attention aroused again, only to be told the same lines again, is not a happy public at all. In fact, it is a public which is already proving that it is turning to websites faster than it is dipping its fingers in its wallets in order to buy another newspaper. This story is not selling papers. And that's why this story is repeatedly portrayed as a secondary headline. This isn't about selling papers. This is about something else. Something that has changed.
In my opinion, of course.
Thanks CynicAL - good focus.

Dead dog or dead person may not distinguishable just from first glance, but the stench would be enough to cause the body language.
