Il faut savoir que les questions que le parquet voulait que l'on pose aux FLO, interviewés dans le cadre de la mission rogatoire, ont été rayées par Stuart Prior et remplacées par une question plus générale (voir les dépositions, plus bas) :
Par ailleurs, deux
des officiers de liaison ont tenu à faire savoir que les MC 1)
insistaient beaucoup sur l'épisode larmes MMC du 3 mai au matin et 2)
avaient demandé à plusieurs reprises si la PJ avait découvert des traces
de sédation.Déposition de Stephen Markley - 25.04.2008
Occupation:
Police Officer
Ayant exercé une fonction de Family Liaison Officer (FLO) à PDL.
This
statement (composed of 2 pages and signed by me) is true and in
accordance with my understanding.
I
am police officer Markley of the Leicestershire Police currently
working in the criminal unit.
In
2007 and in relation to the Portuguese investigation into the
disappearance of Madeleine McCann, I was detached to Portugal in the
role of family communication officer.
On
remarquera l'extraordinaire omission de la date et il est tentant de
la rapprocher de l'une des questions supprimées par Stuart Prior,
qui portait sur la date d'arrivée et celle de départ.
According
to the Portuguese PJ Letter of Request, I was asked to respond to the
following question :
En fait la question à laquelle il répond n'a pas été posée par le Ministère Public portugais. Stuart Prior a supprimé les questions du MP et les a remplacées par la question qui suit, une question dont il connaissait la réponse puisque les FLO qu'il avait envoyés lui avaient fait part de leurs observations concernant la famille MC.
Was
there anything done or said by Kate or Gerry McCann in your presence
or during your various meetings that could raise any suspicion that
they had any knowledge about what could have happened to Madeleine,
beyond the circumstances described to the Portuguese investigators?
Kate ou Gerald MC ont-ils dit ou fait en votre présence ou lors d'une rencontre quelque chose qui vous ait fait vous demander s'ils savaient ce qui était arrivé à Madeleine, hormis les circonstances décrites aux enquêteurs portugais ?
My
reply to the question was: No.
Stuart Prior n'avait pas prévu que les deux remarques suivantes seraient ajoutées...
However, in relation to the above, I would like to add the following: At about 20.00 on Saturday 5th May 2007, I arrived at the apartment where Kate and Gerry were staying, with other officers. During the meeting Gerald and Kate had a number of questions to which they wanted follow up and responses from the PJ.
However, in relation to the above, I would like to add the following: At about 20.00 on Saturday 5th May 2007, I arrived at the apartment where Kate and Gerry were staying, with other officers. During the meeting Gerald and Kate had a number of questions to which they wanted follow up and responses from the PJ.
One
of these questions was that they wanted the PJ to be aware of was
Madeleine's revelation about Wednesday night, when she said that she
was left alone during the night. She told Kate and Gerry that she
remembered the twins crying and that she wanted to know why neither
her mother nor her father had gone to the room to see what was
happening.
Il est amusant de voir que les MC aient tant insisté pour que la PJ prenne note d'une remarque que Kate MC a décrite comme "sans importance", "en passant" !
They
also wanted to know whether the PJ had any evidence that would
suggest that the person who took Madeleine had used any substance to
facilitate the abduction.
Pourquoi voulaient-ils savoir si la PJ avait trouvé des traces de sédation ? À rapprocher du fait qu'ils n'ont commencé à parler de sédation par le ravisseur quand ils ont été soupçonnés d'avoir administré une over-dose à MMC.
Déposition de Jim McGarvey - 25.04.2008
I am police Inspector McGarvey of the Leicestershire police force, currently based in the criminal unit.
In 2007 and in relation to the Portuguese investigation carried out into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann, I was detached to Portugal in the role of communication officer for the family.
Aucune indication de date non plus.
In accordance with the Portuguese PJ Letter of Request I was asked to respond to the following question : Was there anything done or said by Kate or Gerry McCann in your presence or during various contacts that could raise any suspicion that they could have had any knowledge of what could have happened to Madeleine, beyond the circumstances described to the Portuguese investigators.
My reply to the question: No.
In relation to the above I would like to mention that at approximately 20.00 on the 5th May, I arrived at the McCann apartment with other family communications officers. We were asked several times during this meeting about questions that Gerald and Kate would like to have followed up and responded to by the PJ.
I remember that during the meetings, Kate revealed that Madeleine had spoken with her in the morning of her disappearance and said that she remembered the twins had cried during the night and that she wanted to know why neither her mother or father had appeared. Kate asked herself whether this fact could have any relation with Madeleine's disappearance.
Gerry and Kate also questioned whether there was any suggestion that pointed to the use of drugs to facilitate Madeleine's abduction.
JMG a été frappé de la même manière que son collègue. Il y avait d'autres FLO, ils ont répondu "non" à la question de Stuart Prior, mais n'ont rien dit de plus.
This statement was made by me and is truthful in accordance with my knowledge.
