(iv) In a derelict house in Praia da Luz? This may or may not have taken some time to decide. Immediately following the reported disappearance of Madeleine, the holiday company who arranged the holiday, Mark Warner, brought their PR company, Bell Pottinger, to Praia da Luz. No-one else was reported to have ever died in that apartment. To sum up, there is no photographic evidence that Madeleine was alive after Sunday lunchtime (apart from the Make-Up photo - see below). Madeleine would have been happily playing with her brother and sister, her friends in the Lobsters club, and her Mum and Dad for six days. When the film was published, the McCanns claimed she had been playing with Mummys make-up box, but that story didnt stand up to scrutiny. However, a subsequent review of the samples determined that they had been contaminated by government Forensic Science Service staff.

We also need to bear in mind that on the basis of the PJ theory as it stands, this was a holiday to a place the McCanns had never been to before. 15 minutes to defend yourself against the death penalty. On the very night when the McCanns and their friends should have been distraught, following Madeleines sudden disappearance, some of them were busy contacting the TV and print media and claiming, even in the very first hours after they had raised the alarm, that the Portuguese police were incompetent and not organising a proper search for her. Chloe Corner, daughter of Jon Corner; Madeleines godfather, had been a Facebook friend of Catriona Baker well before 2007. (v) Would we be investigated by the police?

What indications do we have about when she died? Chapter 8: A man with a child in his arms. Lourenco supplied the police with a photograph he said he had taken of the mans car.

Here we set out, briefly, some key objections to our theory - and provide our responses: Nobody could keep up the pretence that their daughter had been abducted - knowing that she was dead - for so long (nine years now). Here are the relevant considerations we have in mind regarding Murats involvement: There is evidence that he and Gerry McCann may have known each other before the McCanns holiday in Praia da Luz in 2007, Robert Murat was a well-known long-term resident of Praia da Luz, his mother having lived there for much of her life, He was on an extended stay in England (Devon) when the McCanns went on holiday to Praia da Luz in 2007, On Monday 30 April, he was hastily summoned to Portugal, allegedly by his girlfriend, but possibly by others - Murats account of the phone call or calls that led him to take a hasty flight to Portugal is not convincing, He took the early morning flight to Faro, Portugal from Exeter at 7am the very next day, Tuesday 1 May.

It includes such things as: A huge number of contradictory statements by the McCanns, their friends (David and Fiona Payne and Fionas mother Dianne Webster, Russell OBrien and Jane Tanner, and Matthew and Rachael Oldfield), and others closely associated with them. There would have been a severe emotional reaction and initial panic, and maybe a series of irrational responses, before they could properly gather their thoughts and begin to come to terms with the shock of losing their daughter and start planning how to cover it up. Officials say new charges relate to offences allegedly committed in Portugal between 28 December 2000 and 11 June 2017 . 19 March: Kate and Gerry McCann accept 550,000 libel damages and front-page apologies from Express Newspapers over allegations they were responsible for Madeleine's death.
