Friend of McCanns counters claims of "lost" six hours before girl vanished

Senior detectives have suggested that there was a six-hour period in which the movements of Madeleine and her parents at the Ocean Club in Praia da Luz are unclear. A photograph was taken of the child at 2.29pm at the pool of the resort and, according to police, it is unclear what happened from then until 8.30pm when Mrs McCann sat down to dinner with her friends at the tapas bar.

The McCann family friend said: “Madeleine went to the kids’ club in the afternoon, after the photograph was taken at the pool. There are written records and witnesses.
“Madeleine was there while Kate and Gerry played tennis with the tennis professional and other witnesses. She had high tea at 5.30pm with staff at the kids’ club. She was picked up shortly before 6pm by Kate and Gerry.

The latest account of what happened on May 3 emerged after a restaurant owner in the resort claimed to have seen the couple having tea with their daughter.
---------------------------

The Staff at the kids club as well as the restaurant owner should be able to confim this version of events.

Yes that is what I've managed to get as a fact, Maddie was last seen at 6pm having dinner with her parents.

I read somewhere where Gerry played tennis with another male friend of his, Kate wasnt present. I think it was written in her diary, as she was angry with Gerry for leaving her with the kids. If this is wrong sorry and if it isnt and anyone can find the link, would be very much appreciated.

I don't know about the tennis Shazza but I think it's important if the whereabouts of Madeleine that afternoon can be verified by the staff at the kids club and the owner of the restaurant.

Thats for sure, wasnt there a photo taken on that day and some thought that the date and time on the photo had been changed, maybe reading Gerry's blog for that day might shed some light as to what happened.

PORTUGUESE police last night mounted a robust defence of their investigation against the McCanns and insisted: our case is strong.

Police sources hit out after it was suggested their case against the couple was close to collapse after a judge rejected their application to bring the McCanns back to Portugal for questioning.

And they made it clear that they are determined to continue to build a case against the couple which they believe will lead to a successful prosecution.

Either
a) they know a heck of alot more than we think they know, or
b) they are pulling a Mark Geragos

Give me an a) I don't think they really have anything. The hipe about the blood and fluids in the trunk can be shot down by an expert...even the hair in the trunk according to experts that I've listened to. I think those cops messed this case up so bad from day one that now they just want to see someone convicted and the McCanns are looking pretty good to them. I don't think they murdered that little girl but then I don't think that John and Patsy murdered Jon B. either. There has never been any proof of either.

Unfortunately, Gerry wasn't writing in his blog before Madeleine went missing.

I just posted about this on another thread. I'm sure their friends are defending them! But on this particular point, it appears that the author is interviewing a witness.

The friends are the ones releasing information because, by law, the McCanns aren't supposed to. But it doesn't matter whether the friends or the parents are the spokespeople, the source is the same.

Well that explains why I cant find it, I have literally been all over the net, wow.....Im really tired now and frustrated.

Still waiting.

If the PJ had anything concrete on the Mc's they would be charged already.

For months that neighbor man was a suspect. I don't think they have cleared his name yet. Then when that didn't pan out they suddenly suspect the parents. I think they are grasping at straws looking for someone to blame and convict so this case will go away and people will stop saying how the cops messed this case up.

What if someone did take Maddy...are they going to get away with it? Looks that way. She could still be alive and living with a couple who are who knows where. Maybe someone saw her with her parents and thought she was a little doll and decided that they wanted her to be their little girl. This case is such a mystery. I would never go to a foreign country. These cops messed this case up from the beginning and look at the mess in Aruba.

Do you know where the rumor about Kate not answering all of the questions asked of her came from? Did that come from the cops or is that just more rumors running around to make Kate the focus in this mess? I hadn't read that.

I think so too-

Could be, good age to grab kids- when they are too young to remember anything..

Sorry no I don't- but if I had to hazard a guess it would be the latter, but maybe someone else knows.

I believe you might see something about them not answering all questions in the transcripts of the nancy grace show but I do not know who their source was. I am not sure where the papers got the info for their stories.

Guess we need to go back and research that sometime.

 

[IrishMist]

I was obsessed with the Peterson cases. LOL.

I was totally obsessed with the Ramsey case, JonBenet stole my heart- man what a cute kid and what a tragic end to such a short life.
I still think about her.

I was obsessed with both of these.

 

[IrishMist]

Well it is the friends also who have now come out of the woodwork & are denying what Kate is reported to have said when she first discovered Maddy missing so it would appear that there is some sort of campaign now going on to refute any damning things that were in the news before.

Why wouldn't their friends want to get the truth out there?

I can't figure out how to get past the first/front page of his blog to see other posts he made - HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We don't KNOW that.

My point is this. So much of what we are reading and hearing has to be taken with a grain of salt. Some people want to leave fact or fiction to just one thread, but I prefer to keep that kind of thing in mind before condemning two people that have already been through Hell.

Gerry's blogs start on Day 17, that what I found anyway, in Gerry's blog thread in this forum, I was informed earlier by Calikid that Gerry didnt start his blog from the first day that Madelaine disappeared. Sorry I cant help you more, but I have been looking for blogs earlier than that too.
Im wondering why he didnt start his blog earlier.

There where 2 younger children in that room that would be a better choice if you where looking for a "new child". The twin girl is as cute as a bugs ear, and only two. If you wanted to start a new family, without the worry of the kid "talking" wouldn't you choose the youngest one with limited language? (if you where a kidnapper)

The only abductor who would take an older girl vs a younger one, wants more than a new child...IMHO.
