The PJ swiftly (and rightly) lost interest in Robert Murat after they were (less rightly) led astray by a <modsnip> freelance English dog-handler into focusing all their attention on Madeleine's parents.
For example, Kate's and Gerry's clothing were -- twice -- strewn over floors, in different spots, for dogs to trample over and sniff.
Thank goodness, none of Robert Murat's clothing was treated the same.
Neither should the McCanns' clothing have been.
ETA; for the clue of what Grime, in largely disregarding Mark Harrison, was about, there, you need to fast-forward to 2011, Grime's successor cadaver dog to Eddie, Morse, and the Bianca Jones investigation.
According to Grime, on December 4, 2011, he took his dogs to an enclosed warehouse that contained 31 vehicles. Grime was told that Bianca was in one of the vehicles at the time of the carjacking, but was not told which vehicle was involved. Morse alerted Grime to the presence of the odor of decomposition in the back seat and trunk of a silver Grand Marquis. Keela later screened the car and did not alert Grime to the presence of human blood.
Grime testified that, after the vehicle screening, he took the dogs to an administrative building to screen the items removed from Dungey's car. Grime did not know where the objects were located in the building, and the objects had been placed in a room filled with “all sorts of things.” Morse alerted Grime to the odor of decomposition in Bianca's car seat and a bag containing Bianca's blanket. Grime later took the dogs to Dungey's house. Morse alerted him to the odor of decomposition in a room that contained bunk beds and a closet without a door.
It's all there. The line-up of vehicles. The repeat of the pattern of testing stuff in one place, taking it to another, and testing it a second time.
ETA: another key point to note is the difference between the two dogs, Eddie and Morse. Morse, not trained to react to human blood; Eddie, trained to react to human blood.
