Madeleine McCann: German prisoner identified as suspect - #11

[MENDEL]

As many of us here at websleuths together determined, the photo is at Praia do Barranco (not at Praia Boca do Rio) I would stake my entire sleuthing reputation on it. Any newspaper stating otherwise is simply wrong.

The entire forum might close for lack of reputation if that was not taken at Praia do Barranco. And our clue was given by @tedtink who read it in Sun.

Investigators should read the press and forums. I hope they don't think Málaga picture was taken at Marseille.

Which means the Sun has a good investigator who knows how to find locations

But they think he took pic at Praia Boca do Rio. How could it be?

well, 'they' is media is making that link. i doubt anyone at sky has spent the hours looking around Algarve beaches that we did.

LE in the algarve know their beaches. so they know the camper photo is Barracano. we know the photo is Barracano.

i would say there are other good reasons why LE are looking in these three wells. other information. nothing to do with the photo.

 

[tedtink]

According to Sky News investigators have found nothing in the wells.
Someone needs to tell them to go to Barranco beach.

At least seems so. I'd like to know their source.

It would be nice if MT told how much shortly afterwards he left the country.

I trust Sky's location because it's based on a witness who saw police operation. So it must be accurate. How LE mistake beaches is a mystery to me.

Unless that's it. Has nothing to do with photo. But it's quite disturbing all news say it's connected.

hopefully it is their next stop. did any Wsleuthers find wells near that beach?

yes. it is accurate. why do you think they have mistaken any beaches?????

 

[MENDEL]

yes. it is accurate. why do you think they have mistaken any beaches?????

Because they say van's beach picture was taken at Praia Boca do Rio and all we here know BARD it was taken at Praia do Barranco.

 

[tedtink]

I think the media has mistaken the beach, they've looked at the westfalia pic and have presumed it's the same beach imo.
The DT suggested the beach/westfalia pic.

I hope so.

I understood RS left before May 3, 2007 but must check again.

Did you have a link for that? The Foral sources/articles I've seen indicate that all 3 of them were living together after MM.

I'm basing on what I can recall from last week's "Sexta às 9" (couple interview). I'll check now.

ETA: I have checked now. She says CB was living in Foral when MM disappeared. She said she was his GF and landlady Lia also told so to the couple. The couple says their relationship begun after NF left Romano (Sandra F calls him Roman and subtitles read Roman). So I must deduct that RS was no longer living there on May 3, 2007.

 

[NCanning]

Strangely, the beach spelling is different even on the road signs!

 

[NCanning]

For no reason whatsoever, how is Foral pronounced? Is it similar to Floral? Or is it pronounced as For Al?

This is getting confusing. Is it the same beach?

 

[sleuth-d-]

I was surprised to see wooden posts on that beach. First I have seen in Portugal. Unfortunately they are round rather than square. Too closely spaced. And no rope through them.

As for all. Not similar to Floral. If you put foral in Google translator under Portuguese and press listen you can hear it.
