Maddie: Attorney General's Office not part of new investigations
by Paula Oliveira
6 December 2011
The English police is investigating the disappearance of Maddie McCann without the assistance of Portuguese authorities. This information has been confirmed to TVI24 by the [Portuguese] Republic's Attorney General.
Three Scotland Yard investigators were in Barcelona between the 23rd and the 25th of November, following leads in the disappearance of the English child that disappeared from an apartment in Praia da Luz, in the Algarve, in 2007. The presence of investigators in Spain may indicate that the child was taken across the border. But the Scotland Yard did not contact the Portuguese investigators.
The Scotland Yard did not have any contact with the Attorney General's Office about that issue. In the process, there is no knowledge of the existence of any new data/facts about Maddie's disappearance. The process will only be reopened under the regulations of article 279 of the Penal Process Code, which is to say, if any new elements appear that invalidate the basis for the archiving, the Attorney General's Office states in a written reply to TVI24.
The case was archived by the Attorney General's Office. Approximately one year ago, Pinto Monteiro [the Attorney General] asserted that he would only reopen it if new data appeared.
In May last year, the Scotland Yard reopened the process after the personal intervention of the United Kingdom's prime minister, David Cameron.
It is not known whether the British investigators have discovered any new fact that the Portuguese police failed to notice.
In August this year, the Scotland Yard confirmed to [Portuguese news] agency Lusa that they traveled to Portugal in order to discuss the Maddie case with Portuguese investigators. At that time, the Judiciary Police (PJ) and the Attorney General said they did not know about that information. Joana Morais

An Italian psychic said Maddie had been taken to England by a woman dominated by her tattooed husband.
A Spanish psychic claimed she had a vision the missing girl had been killed by a gardener and buried in a flowerbed with three other children.

I'd be delighted to see a press conference, and a full account of why this money is being spent on one missing child. What new evidence has come to light, and why is the taxpayer footing the bill anyway? The family is still asking for further funding, but no progress after six years and no clear idea of how money is spent?

Its time this charade was brought to a close, the parents were responsible for the lose of this child, no matter what anyone says, the British public know this and as nothing has been said about their neglect it is time to end the publics involvement and let them get on with their lives.

There are a couple of parts in it that knock your socks off. And on a subject that is as bizarre as any you would find in humans; sexual psychosis.

Check back in a while, but I will tweet the result.
Right so, as the Paddies would say.
ReplyDeleteThe bit we want is all on episode one, unfortunately not on youtube, but I have tracked it down.
I would recommend watching the whole thing, simply because it is most watchable. And not only that, you get to know the characters of the bears so much better.
However, if you don’t want to do that, push the first video on to 45mins and watch it to the end. And you won’t need me to tell you which are the topical parts.

ReplyDelete"In October of last year the Portuguese media reported that the case would be reopened. It reported that a new team of investigators would be formed in the Algarve and that inspector Helena Monteiro and her 4 officers from Porto, who had been asked to review the case, would stay on and be part of the investigation. Of course it was reiterated that the PJ didn't consider the McCanns suspects and it was even reported that the couple would be given some type of special status making them assistants to the investigative process.
For those who understand Portuguese

I strongly believe that nothing is being done to solve this case. All the flurry of activity that we have been witnessing was planned to coincide with the libel trial against Mr. Amaral. This case is political."

When she gets it right, particularly on the McCann's behavioural patterns etc, she's fairly spot on.

I have read Pat Brown on some of her other topics, some quite telling, and in keeping with my assessment of the woman, a typical (self serving)right-wing (

But she is evidently, a patriot. And you know what we think about those.
It is up to us to see that our representatives conduct themselves with honor, integrity, and decency on behalf of our beloved America.

And given that daughter and I share the same sense of humour, needless to say, we fell about laughing. Well, as much as you can in a car.

Scotland Yard corruption police dealing drugs weapons, murder of Daniel Morgan 30Nov12
Published on 8 Jul 2013
[PublicEnquiry]
Murder Inquiries
Four police inquiries into murder
On 10th March 1987, private investigator Daniel Morgan was brutally axed to death in the car park of a pub in Sydenham, south east London. During the first Met inquiry, three serving detectives were arrested on suspicion of involvement for the killing. One of these was actually a member of the squad investigating the murder. The two other officers later won damages as a result of their arrest.
At an inquest in April 1988, a bookkeeper employed by Daniel's company Southern Investigations alleged that Daniel's partner, Jonathan Rees, and Detective Sergeant Sid Fillery - a member of the murder squad -- had planned the contract murder. Bookkeeper Kevin Lennon also alleged that Fillery planned early retirement and would step into Daniel's shoes at Southern Investigations. By the time of the inquest, Fillery had already left the Police force and was working together with Rees. The inquest also heard allegations from other witnesses that Fillery had tampered with evidence and attempted to interfere with witnesses during the inquiry. Lennon made his statement seven months before the inquest. In the weeks before his murder Daniel Morgan had repeatedly expressed concerns over corrupt police officers in south London.
A complaint from the horrified family initiated an outside inquiry by Hampshire police in July 1988. Its terms of reference were to investigate "all aspects of police involvement arising from the death of Daniel Morgan". Unknown to Daniel's family, the remit of this inquiry was secretly changed at a high level meeting at Scotland Yard in December 1988. Hampshire police later charged Jonathan Rees and another civilian with the murder, but the case was dropped before trial. Hampshire later reported to the Police Complaints Authority that there was "no evidence whatsoever of police involvement in the murder".
Shocked by this conclusion, the family began lobbying MPs Chris Smith (Islington South & Finsbury) and Richard Livesey (Brecon & Radnor). The family and their MPs held a series of meetings with senior Scotland Yard officers culminated in a meeting with Met Commissioner Sir Paul Condon in November 1997. Condon promised to review the case.
Late in 1998 and without the knowledge of the Morgan family, Deputy Assistant Commissioner Roy Clark head of Scotland Yard's 'ghost squad' began a covert inquiry into the murder. This involved the bugging of Southern Investigations' offices in Thornton Heath. Only in July 1999 did the family learn of the inquiry through an article leaked by police to the Daily Telegraph. In December 2000, Jonathan Rees, Simon Jones and detective constable Austin Warnes were convicted of conspiring to plant cocaine on a woman in order to discredit her in a child custody battle. No one was charged with the murder of Daniel Morgan.
Troubled by the secrecy of this inquiry, the Morgan family demanded disclosure of the 1989 report from Hampshire police. DAC Roy Clark agreed to this, but the family rejected his draconian terms. First he requested that the family indemnify Hampshire police against civil action before reading the report. When this was rejected, he offered to read the 83 page report to the family but would allow them to take no notes or record. The family began litigation to force disclosure. In 2002 the Met began a fourth inquiry into the murder of Daniel Morgan and in September 2003 the Crown Prosecution Service decided there was insufficient evidence to prosecute.

ReplyDeleteAll I can say is experience. I have seen the inside of police cases, the inside of politics in police cases, and the inside of media. http://bit.ly/1mtONm5
I have seen the inside of authority (internal affairs) for many years. NL
USA anyone?
I have read her comments and were I to be honest, she has some valid arguments, but I think many of them are, and I can't think of the right word here, are based on scenarios that she assumes/presumes, will come to pass.
ReplyDeleteIt's all down the the PJ at the end of the day. It's where they go with it that matters, not SY and whatever they decide to pull out of there arse.
But as she, and you, point out, it's the politics that will be a, if not the, defining factor in the outcome.
But that said, why did the PJ reopen the case? It wasn't to exonerate the McCanns, that's for sure.
At least I don't think it was; surely not.
I have seen the inside of authority (internal affairs) for many years. NL ?
Yes, some valid arguments, but as you say based on scenarios that she assumes/presumes, will come to pass. That’s the trouble with theories.
ReplyDeleteInternal affairs, former job. Every man may meet his match. That’s how it works. I know it does. Cover-ups as the end justifies the means or so they say. Not by definition a bad thing, but it surely is if it makes innocent victims.
Some known information.
http://content.met.police.uk/Article/Operation-Grange/1400005508791/35434
On 12 May 2011 the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) announced that, at the request of the Home Secretary, it had agreed to bring its particular expertise to the Madeleine McCann case.
The then Commissioner, Sir Paul Stephenson, considered the request and took the decision that on balance it was the right thing to do. This was subject to funding being made available by the Home Office, as this case is beyond the MPS's jurisdiction.

That reanalysis task, which took place during the last two and a half years, helped identify new evidence, which by imposing further investigation, meet the requirements set by article 279º no 1 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for the reopening of the investigation.
That "new evidence" is the elimination of Tannerman, I think. They were forced to do that due to the libel trial (book Amaral) which libel trial was a total failure for the McCanns.

http://joana-morais.blogspot.com/2013/10/goncalo-amarals-book-contained-nothing.html
Gonçalo Amaral's book “contained nothing new, nothing that it wasn't published before”
Then create something "new". Tanner and Carpenter shatter-proof and Amaral on the "wrong" track as Smithsman is only 60-80% Gerry McCann. Carrying style, pyjamas style, never heard of it. Walking in the wrong direction and "abductor’s" hairstyle doesn’t matter anymore as Tannerman and Smithsman are no longer the same person in spite of Kate McCann’s I am staggered by how alike they are, almost identical in parts. (p. 328, Madeleine by Kate McCann) and Gerry McCann’s an Irish family saw a man and they gave an almost identical description of the man and the child) impassioned attempts to suggest they were the same man, before the Tannerman elimination, that is.
Fortunately, they still had the E-fits; risky, but no conclusive evidence.
Between Scylla and Charybdis.
But the darkest hour is just before the dawn. I just read that recently freed Halligen will speak for the first time about his theory. Halligen’s operatives may end up solving the mystery.
Halligen’s investigators convinced the Irish family who saw her to help produce an e-fit. That man is now the Metropolitan Police’s No1 suspect.

From Ricardo Paiva, Inspector
...Today, when the undersigned went to the McCann's temporary residence to notify them of the need to present themselves at the police station to make statements, being able to take their lawyer with them, Kate McCann immediately reacted in a negative manner, making comments such as "what are my parents going to think" and "what is the press going to say when they find out" and that "the Portuguese police is under pressure from the government to finish the investigation quickly"....

ReplyDeleteI think she’s right.
For instance, establishing body would have happened sooner, not yrs later. Politics/police process US certainly hinders

A year after Madeleine’s disappearance in 2007, Kate and Gerry McCann hired Halligen as a private investigator. He reportedly spent much of the money on luxury hotels, restaurants and a chauffeur.
ReplyDeleteBut despite neglecting his Operation Omega team, the new film claims the investigators made significant breakthroughs in the hunt for the missing child.
The team’s final report in 2008 is said to have contained leads which are now forming part of the current Scotland Yard investigation, including a sighting by retired businessman Martin Smith which led to an e-fit shown on Crimewatch last year.

ReplyDelete[Martin Smith] States that it is not possible for him to recognise the individual in person or by photograph.
He states that the individual carried the child in his arms, with her head laying on the individual's left shoulder

Re: Smith Family
Text: Reported that he passed a male carrying a child in Praia da Luz the night Maddie went missing. Went and made a statement to Portugal police in Portimao on 26th of May and returned to the U.K. Is saying that after seeing McCANNS on the news on 9th of September when they returned to the U.K. He has not slept and is worried sick. He states he was watching the 10 pm news on BBC and saw the McCANNS getting off the plane and coming down the steps. He states it was like watching an action replay of the night he saw the male carrying the child back in Portugal. He states the way Gerry was carrying his twin triggered something in his head. It was exactly the same way and look of the other male seen the night Maddy went missing. He also watched ITV news and SKY news and inferred it looked like the same person both times carrying the children. Is asking a member of the OP Task Force to ring him back. He was with a group of 9 family and friends the night he saw the male in Portugal. He sounded quite shaken and worried whilst speaking to me.

Re – Investigation into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann
I took an additional statement from Mr Smith as requested. His wife does not want to make another statement. I showed him the video clip and he stated that it was not the clip that alerted him but the BBC news at 10 PM on 9th September 2007.
He has been contacted by numerous tabloid press looking for stories. He has been contacted by Mr Brian Kennedy who is supporting the McCann family to take part in a photo fit exercise. He has given no stories or helped in any photo fits. He sent a solicitor's letter to six papers in relation material that was printed that was misquoted. The Evening Herald paid his solicitor's fees and all papers printed an apology. His photograph appeared in another tabloid paper and this matter is being pursued at the moment.
I do not believe that Martin Smith is courting the press and my view his is a genuine person. He is known locally and is a very decent person.
Forwarded please

ReplyDeleteI paid a visit but didn't read it. I just wasn't in the mood for the woman and all her Americanese shite.

I think Smith has had one visit too many from those with a vested interest.
OT?
ReplyDelete5. (C) The original allegations were developed by Portuguese authorities and shared with the London Police in August 2005.
The London Police then obtained and shared with Portuguese authorities a clandestine March 2006 video of Charles Smith,
of Smith & Pedro, discussing the payment of bribes to Socrates' cousin. British and Portuguese law enforcement are reportedly cooperating effectively on the case (which may be a positive consequence of the fumbled high profile investigation into the disappearance of British child Maddie McCann in Portugal in 2007).

Very interesting, and an excellent find. I shall pass it to @Winnower1 she likes the dots. And there are plenty there.
I couldn't help but notice: "Part of the Wikileaks 2010 Documents Release Collection." (top of page) What's that all about?

The "more, lots more" link in the post is also a Sargeants Inn link, but is now defunct ( i've just tried the Waybackmachine, no joy)
www.thesargeants.net/dblog/articolo.asp?articolo=299
(Article 299, yours being article 296)
As is most of the Sargeants stuff, defunct I mean, unless I'm not trying hard enough?
So where we go from here I have no idea, other than I say, let Sue (Win) peruse the thing. (without hashtag for now)
Nice one Maren, as we young uns say.
Oh, and the Freeport thing, after all that, the wreckers ball.
ReplyDeleteIt now means that the McCanns effectively have to get permission from the British High Court to represent their daughter in any legal action.

Intriguingly, the Portuguese press publicised a "new theory" in its update on the excavations on Wednesday.
"Scotland Yard has moved on to the belief that Madeleine was killed in the apartment and her body hidden in the area around the Ocean Club," writes Correio da Manhã.
"This is exactly what that poor policeman in charge of the original investigation thought," Nana told the Resident.
Yeah, the same conclusion, but a different "abductor", I'll bet.
Oh that book A Verdade Da Mentira, a true history of facts, based on the actual Portuguese police files.
Mrs McCann spent days weeping...

It is a sunny day. Mx
It is Sunny Chuck, you are quite right. I should go and see to my giant sunflowers (ivy alternative) they are germinating splendidly.
ReplyDeleteJust one more cigarette, and then.
Excellent read, thank you.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to discount anything in Amaral's logic. The only thing you might, would be the "if":
Furthermore, I have serious doubts that if Madeleine McCann is dead her cadaver is anywhere to be found
But not really, he's only being diplomatic.
On a lighter note, I loved the pot plant talk, all the ageing Brit "heads" up in the hills, doing their gardening.
Do you use that expression in the Netherlands, a head?
