So what did Mr Martin Grime’s cadaver dog and blood-hound find?
According to the official police summary report released in July this year - and confirmed by video evidence of the dogs in action in Praia da Luz, widely available on the Internet - Eddie, the cadaver dog, found the ‘smell of death’ in the following places. We quote the exact words of the report: a) in the McCanns’ apartment, Apartment 5A, Eddie the cadaver the dog detected the scent of a human corpse (human cadaverine): • in the couple’s bedroom, in a corner, around a wardrobe, and • in the living room, behind the sofa, close to the external window of the apartment. Also, a ‘lighter’ scent of death was found in the flower beds in the back yard, near the foot of the steps leading down from the patio. b) on family items of clothing, Eddie found the scent of a corpse as follows: • on two items of Kate McCann’s clothing, and • on one item of Madeleine’s clothing - a T-shirt. |

c) in addition, Eddie the cadaver dog was taken to the house that the McCanns rented, in a different part of Praia da Luz, after they left Apartment 5A. Eddie found cadaverine on what was said to be Madeleine’s favourite pink soft toy, ‘Cuddle Cat’, which Dr Kate McCann always had with her when being interviewed by the media - but which Eddie detected lying in an otherwise empty cupboard. Here it should be noted that, earlier, Eddie had found Cuddle Cat in the living room at the McCanns’ rented home, tossed it in the air, but not actually ‘marked’ it by barking. He later marked it when the police re-located it in the cupboard.
d) on top of all that, Eddie, sniffing the car from the outside only, detected cadaverine in the car the McCanns hired on 22nd May, less than three weeks after Madeleine ‘disappeared’ - a Renault Scenic: • on the car key • around the door of the front driver’s seat. |

These findings, supported by other forensic evidence, show that a dead body must have begun to emit cadaverine in Apartment 5A - the McCanns’ apartment. That body must have lain dead in that apartment for at least 90 minutes, probably two hours or more. Once that ‘smell of death’ - cadaverine - had begun to be produced, it could then be transferred to other locations such as the hire car, Madeleine’s clothes, Dr Kate McCann’s clothes and Cuddle Cat.
That means that a corpse - that must have been dead for approximately two hours (in order for cadaverine to have been produced) - must have been in direct contact with all of these locations - floor, wardrobe, car, clothes etc. If the body had subsequently been moved, it would still emit cadaverine as it was decomposing. Meanwhile, Keela, the blood-hound, found the smell of blood - note, blood, not just ‘body fluids’: a) in the living room, behind the sofa, close to the external window of the apartment (exactly where Eddie had found the scent of human cadaverine), and b) in the McCanns’ hired Renault Scenic: • on the car key • in the interior of the car boot. |

We should note three very important things here. The dogs alerted to the smell of death/blood, separately, in exactly the same places in the apartment. Eddie the cadaver dog only alerted to the smell of death to the McCanns’ apartment, out of all the other ones he was taken to.
Similarly, the McCanns’ car was the only one in the car compound that Eddie alerted to. Let us be very clear about where the dogs’ evidence takes us. Records have been checked by the Portuguese police, going back years. No-one else has ever died in Apartment 5A. No-one else has ever died in the Renault Scenic. There was a dead body in Apartment 5A. There was a dead body in the Renault Scenic hired by the McCanns. That dead body could only be one individual - already dead - who could have been in both Apartment 5A and in the Renault Scenic |

your saying maddie was dead the night before?

I don't know just showing you the report of what the dogs found.
The dogs alerted to the smell of death/blood, separately, in exactly the same places in the apartment. Eddie the cadaver dog only alerted to the smell of death to the McCanns’ apartment, out of all the other ones he was taken to. I do think that's quite damming. |

By:
Kate McCann acknowledged the smell of death on her clothing stating she wore the same clothes to work, as a doctor, as she did on her holidays.
Possible, but highly unlikely. |
|
By:
Like you wear work clothes on holiday.......
|
|
By:
if the dogs were used in a murder where the suspect worked in a hospital, morgue, etc would that be enough to make the evidence unusable
|
|
By:
At least in drug searches, dogs are apparently frequently wrong.
They are wrong 80% of the time according to this article... http://www.smh.com.au/environment/animals/ sniffer-dogs-get-it-wrong-four-out-of-five-times-20111211-1oprv.html |

There's also a question over if they're actually able to detect anything or are only responding to the body language of their handler.
|
|
By:
Carnt we get the results of a lie detector test, see exactly what the Mcanns do or do not know.
Ohhh sorry they refuse to take one. |
|
By:
Right, here's the gist of the story,
A few families go on holiday and leave their children alone whilst they go on the p1ss....do we all agree Child goes missing, parents phone sky news before the local plod. Do we all agree Next day father ( Freemason ) goes for a game of tennis. What would you do in his situation? Family stay in resort for months, until they're named as suspects, then they come home. Scotland Yard gets involved saying arrests are imminent, just there to cover the tracks. No arrests made. Maddie mc was despicably let down by her parents. For her sake, as summing the cscams version is true, I hope she's dead..rip. |
|
By:
You have a point there Davey....
Another point, for example, if the McCanns had admitted an accidental overdoes their careers as Doctors would have been finished for good.......so that could be taken as quite a high motive to conceal it. Our plod have not issued any statement ruling anything definitively out or in so at the moment we have no idea if they have discovered any more than when they went out there????? My feeling is this will remain unsolved |
|
By:
add to that of course the McCanns would probably have been facing a spell in Portuguese prison
for manslaughter at a guess |
|
By:
of their own daughter, they would not have relished that experience
|
|
By:
in fairness motive on it's own does not make anyone guilty,
|
|
By:
censored strange......I was just pointing out a case needs more than motive
|

By:
What's been censored?

Paranoia setting in

They are watching you closely ebulgery. Be very careful.

By:
theres enough people out there with possible information who need to be lent on a bit harder if they want the truth to come out,the fact they arnt been lent on should have alarm bells ringing
the other tapas members murat priest mcann spokesmen [2 of them] |
|
By:
Agree with you there 1st time...
This priest is one that's bothering me... what exactly does he know? He's hidden behind the papal secrecy thing which cannot be right in this case. |
|
By:
Short of putting thumbscrews in the priest there is not much you can do to get him to speak.
|
|
By:
thought the catholic church and new pope were having a big clamp down on peado behaviour,that would give him wiggle room to say what he knows
|

By:
These McCann threads have a habit of disappearing overnight.

Too clever by half bix
|

By:
I thought they offered to take a lie detector test, then baulked when it was offered!
The circumstances, their immediate reaction, washing cud the sniffer dogs, the insistence on a photo fit that was debunked, the priest, the freemason set, the hidden online criminal record.....something smells fishy & I'm not talking about the contents of Baldricks apple crumble! |
|
By:
he probably agreed to it ,he,s one cold fish, dr etc probably thought he could beat it,
tapas 9 inconsistent contradictory evidence,if there not involved makes you wonder what else their covering up ,rather than bending over backwards to help the inquiry |
|
By:
They've got all the media luvvies in their pockets....As did Jimmy Savile.
