He probably lacks empathy and that's why these type of people do well in such jobs. Certainly a complete lack of self awareness too.

I am thinking along the lines that the hotel won't be in a rough part of the city, and even if they didn't know who the victim was they'd be considering the impact of a shooting there. I'm not from the USA, btw, so I'm assuming that it's usually a safer area of the city.

It does show though, what they can achieve if they put the effort in. I think the perp barely escaped before the authorities were quickly on the scene. Then we had all the info coming out at the speed of lightning. I couldn't see that happening if for example it was a homeless person who had...

I can see the resemblance between the taxi photos and the hostel smiling one, but the other ones just seems like a different person. I accept though that they'll be the same person or they wouldn't say they are.

Are they sure that all these photos are of the same person? They all look different to me.

Agreed. The other E-fit from the Smith family looked nothing like Gerry and so I do think Mr Smith was influenced by the media and probably internet stories that were floating around too.

I'm taking anything the Keystone Kops say with a huge pinch of salt.

I think all this stemmed from one of the grandfathers innocently mentioning Calpol at some point, then it all snowballed from there. There's no proof at all that the children were given sleep medication during the holiday.

Thankfully, it's still quite rare for children of such a young age to be abducted and murdered. It's easy to see why the police might think there could be a connection.

The only way these theories work with regard to the parents is to involve more and more people. It's just ridiculous. I also think the window business is going to turn out to be a complete Macguffin if this is eventually solved. Like what has happened in other solved cases when people have...

I think only one member of the family described him as looking like Gerry. The other E-fit looked nothing like him from the others. If a bit of time passed before the pictures were drawn this could have been due to all the publicity in-between.

Ah ok. These threads move quite fast. Will have to look for the timeline again.

I wonder if he was in Germany in 2001. Did he regularly go back to visit?

All three have a similar look as well.

I think the same thing happened with regard to Ben Needham and Meredith Kercher. A complete botch up by the local police from the first instance.
