My understanding was that the source was the BBC prior to their journalist Bilton 's Panorama documentary .

yes, I’m not sure why this article has caused particular indignation- it reveals nothing that wasn’t already mentioned in that Panorama documentary as far as I can see….?

I am still mightily intrigued by the extraordinary incident when CB arrived mob handed to retrieve a freezer demanded by menace from the premises he had lived and worked in and been evicted from.

As reported face to face in the BBC Panorama documentary

So that would suggest law enforement is the source.

I've often wondered if HCW does not have digital evidence, but rather someone claims to have seen evidence - as happened in the rape case

Just because it's said face to face doesn't make it true, Billy Clinton is testimony to that.

It could be that what was not mentioned is what they have.

He didn't actually say if he gave it back to him, I could imagine he did though

Of course if Mark Harrison is right that Madeleine's remains were thrown into the sea, there will be no body to find.
IMO CB’s MO was to dig and bury things.

And maybe all were drunk or just bragging or lying...and nothing can be proven as true. IMO that's a good thing BKA doesn't think like that.

Must be slow on the news front

Agree. We have seen numerous of these types of headlines since the Germans went public. The tabloids appear to set up a mini-series of counter narratives after progress is announced or a bold statement is made.

It's a rehash of a Sept just gone story, comes from the Sun originally or is picked up on the news wires by the Sun first, why though what's in it for the brit rags to keep it running.

Great point.
HCW said that they have evidence like photos, videos, online conversations & documents. He seemed to be talking plurally so I’m guessing they have 2 or more types of this evidence. I think online conversations is a given because we’ve seen the non-redacted version of the Skype chat, I assume there’s more. I think the concrete evidence is picture(s). My opinion
He said they might have, it's a big leap to say he had them.

Could be, along with what he sees as back-up 'evidence' from CB's 'Buchs' which seem to form some part of the evidence held by the BKA. It seems a very flimsy and threadbare premise for the abduction & murder claims made though.

Be interesting to see where the two unknown victims/unknown dates on the current charge sheet go. Nothing but word of mouth from a pair of criminal associates of CB, but they've nevertheless obviously met enough potentially chargeable criteria for a judge to give the go-ahead to take them to trial.

The libel courts can probably sort that one out if there is any quibble about veracity of on air statements by a known person not a "source" hiding behind anonymity and spouting rubbish.
A condition which has plagued MM's case right from the start. Which was where our discussion on tabloids had taken us and into the realms of why the PJ felt honour bound to apologise to K and GM.

14 April:
Portuguese police deny leaking details of statements given by the McCs early in the investigation. Spanish television broadcasts quotes, including some made by Mrs McC, supposedly telling officers that Madeleine had been upset the night before she disappeared that her mother had not come to her when she cried.
3 May: A tearful Mrs McC urges people to "pray like mad" for MM as the family mark the first anniversary of the little girl's disappearance.

I politely disagree. The type of evidence they may have being the type of evidence the prosecutor says they may have is one of the tiniest leaps one could make. A big leap would be going from HCW’s comments to a freezer, calpol & a dog bark. My opinion.

If the things you've suggested are brought up it's by those trying to make mischief imo.

HCW said

Please forgive me for my wry smile as I quote your source saying,

A source close to the investigation
told The Sun, 'The next few weeks are make or break for the detectives investigating CB.

It is not my source, it is a readily available article.
