THE TAPAS AND HOW THEY JUST SAID NO WAY

Funny how this lot, with one notable exception, can stand on the steps of the High Court to receive a great big wad of dosh for Kate and Gerry McCann and their Defence Fighting Fund, but when it comes to doing something for little Madeleine, like going back for the reconstruction, no they could not manage to all turn out booted and suited for that. What a bunch of ************I hope every night before they sleep they think of that gorgeous little girl and every morning when they wake up the same thing happens again, live with it! Especially you Jane!

I hope the e-mail sent on Thursday 13th March helps with your arrangements for your accommodation. I am in receipt of your e-mail regarding further questions for John Lowe at the FSS and I will forward them for him to answer. As discussed on Friday, we have made contact with the holiday group ( Paynes, Webster, O'Brien, Tanner, Oldfield, Manpilly ) regarding their availability for the proposed dates for a re-enactment in Portugal. We are still awaiting response from Jeremy Wilkins. Before they will fully commit to attending they have the following questions that they reguest are answered:- 1 - Why do the PJ want them to take part in the re-enactment? 2 - What is the aim, what are the PJ trying to achieve with the re-enactment? 3 - Why so close to the anniversary? 4 - Why don't the PJ use actors? 5 - Will the footage of the re-enactment be released to the press/TV etc? 6 - What protection is there for the friends in relation to the media coverage/likely frenzy? Would you please speak with the Director regarding these questions and consider how you would like us to respond. I would be grateful for a prompt response as this will hopefully ensure that the witnesses are available to attend. Yours Sincerely Mick Graham Detective Inspector Major Crime Unit Last edited by kizzy on Sun Oct 26, 2008 9:46 am, edited 1 time in total.

In answer to the questions raised by the holiday group regarding the re-enactment in Praia da Luz, Mr Paulo Rebelo wishes to clarify them as follows: 1 - Why do the PJ want them to take part in the re-enactment? The PJ wants them to take partin the re-enactment because they were the ones who experienced the situation. Therefore they are in the best conditions to reproduce it. 2 - What is the aim, what are the PJ trying to achieve with the re-enactment? The PJ is trying to find out, with accuracy, the circunstances of the events occurred, using for that purpose the exact place of events and the same persons who took part in it. 3 - Why so close to the anniversary? Only now has the PJ contitions to carry out these procedings, and also because it is desirable that the weather conditions are as similar as possible to those at the time of the events. 4 - Why don't the PJ use actors? The reason is because only the persons involved can clarify, with accuracy and at the same place, their position and movements. 5 - Will the footageof the re-enactment be released to the press/TV etc? The PJ won't release any pictures/footage to the press. 6 - What protection is there for the friends in relation to the media coverage/like frenzy? The place will be isolated and press interference will be avoided to its maximum. The re-enactment will be carried out in one single day, at the exact time the events occurred. However, the witnesses are requested to stay in Portugal for a couple of days more, in order to allow the production of all the material which shall be analysed, checked and signed by the persons involved.

As a group, they are waiting to see if Gerry and Kate McCann will be invited to attend and participate in the re-enactment. It is my understanding that if Gerry and Kate do not participate in this process, then the decision will be that they will not attend. In addition, the group have stated that they would require written reassurances about how the process was going to be conducted before agreeing to attend. Therefore, until these issues are resolved we are unable to get a firm commitment from the holiday group to attend on either of the proposed dates.

On Parole Joined: Sat Nov 24, 2007 8:02 pm Posts: 1125 Location: UK	Thanks to MCXLIII for typing up the following posts: [Processo/16 - VOLUME XVIa.pdf P106 ] xx xxxxxx xxxx Exeter Devon xxx xxx 23rd April 2008 Re: Re-enactment of Events of 3/5/2008 Dear Stuart, Many thanks for your email, and for forwarding the reply from Senhor Rebelo. Also, thanks to you and your colleagues for arranging the re-interviews. It is somewhat reassuring to see in writing from the PJ that there are "no suspicions over [us] regarding the commission of any criminal acts." However, we heard something similar in the weeks before Kate and Gerry were made arguidos! Additionally, the thrust of the PJ's closed questions during the re-interviews seemed only to focus on Kate and Gerry's culpability, suspicion about our written timeline or who involved the media. After a year of lies, accusations and intrusion, I am sure that the Mr Rebelo can appreciate our complete revulsion at what Kate and Gerry have been forced to endure. Furthermore, we cannot help but feel that the re-interviews and re-enactment are all too little and far too late. However, the last thing we would ever want is a standoff between us and the PJ, something that would only delight and benefit the press. Kate and Gerry desperately need the cloud of suspicion over them to be emphatically lifted, and the PJ need to complete their investigation. We also appreciate the legal obstacles to removing Kate and Gerry's arguido status, but would request that prior to us agreeing to the re-enactment the PJ: • publicly dispels the damaging and disturbing lies churned out by the Portuguese press regarding alleged changes to statements, re-interviews or alleged lack of co-operation. • publicly states there are "no suspicions over [us] regarding the commission of any criminal acts." This in no way compromises judicial secrecy. This in no way compromises judicial secrecy. But without some official intervention on their part, a return for the re-enactment seems little more than a perfect opportunity for the press to speculate and libel us all once again. We are very keen to help an investigation aiming to establish what's happened to Madeleine, but have no desire to assist one that seeks only to damn our innocent friends. By actively restoring the focus on Madeleine and robustly dispelling the countless speculation, the PJ can expect our continued co- operation. Yours sincerely, Russell O'Brien & Jane Tanner PS: We certainly do not request any specific reimbursement for travel or accommodation.

The competence to evaluate the interest and need for the performance of any criminal inquiry acts lies with these two entities, not with the witnesses. In fact, according to Portuguese law (article 132, section 1, subsection a) of the Code of Criminal Procedure), whenever a witness summons is served, the witness is compelled to attend the authorities so that any action mentioned in the summons may take place. Following the messages sent by the witnesses, I hereby inform you that both the PJ and the Public Prosecutor responsible for the investigation consider all the questions and doubts previously raised by the witnesses to have been properly answered. Therefore, in this context and in a clear way, the witnesses shall inform, till tomorrow noon, if they will attend (or not attend) the re-enactment. Thanks once again for your valuable cooperation. Best regards Paulo Rebelo CSIC Discussion here: http://the3arguidos.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=24822 Last edited by kizzy on Sun Oct 26, 2008 10:17 am, edited 3 times in total.

Tanner to Stuart Prior 08 May 2008 10:05 (Processo/16 - VOLUME XVIa.pdf P179,180) Dear Stuart, Thanks for your call last night. I spoke with Rachel last night who is chasing Brian Spiro for a response to our legal queries. We are hoping to have that today. Until then we cannot give a definitive answer. Hoever I believe Matt and Rachael cannot do that date, so it may be immaterial anyway! I would just like like to reiterate what I said last night, in that it is so sad we have to consider so many peripheral issues rather than just doing everything we can do to help find Madeleine. Thanks and regards. Jane Last edited by kizzy on Sun Oct 26, 2008 10:13 am, edited 2 times in total.

Apologies for the late reply. We gather now that at least Jez Wilkins, Matt and Rach and Dave/Fi are not going/able to make the re-enactment. Given the prosecutor's requirement for all to be in attendance or none at all, and the absolute nature of the planned date, the decision appears to be academic ... I hope you are well. Best wishes, Russel & Jane Last edited by kizzy on Sun Oct 26, 2008 10:14 am, edited 1 time in total.
