Todisteet riittämättömiä McCann jutussa

Daily Mirrorin mukaan portugalin poliisin pätemättömyyden takia todistusaineisto on arvoton. Erilaisia näytteitä kiistatta on, ja niitä on tutkittu Britanniassa, mutta olosuhteet missä ne on otettu tekevät ne arvottomiksi. Esim. se auto on ollut ajossa ties kenen kanssa ennen ja jälkeen näytteidenoton, UK:ssa se olisi takavarikoitu. Mm. hotellihuoneessa on kulkenut porukkaa kuin pipoa, perheenjäsenillä on luonnollisesti samankaltainen dna, eli tuo 88% ei tarkoita mitään, ja hiustupot voivat pyöriä viikkoja missä vaan.



Ja tässä puhui siis dna tunnistuksen keksijä....



Lopulta tyrmätään hiusnäytteistä saatavat äkilliset yliannostuksen todisteet mahdottomaina. Hiuksista näkyisi vain pitkäaikainen altistaminen aineelle/myrkylle.



Hirvittävä ajojahti. Toivon jo että asia selviää senkin takia, että voivat haastaa lehdet oikeuteen.

The forensic evidence against Kate and Gerry McCann is ' flaky' and would never secure a conviction in a British court, according to a police source.



The comments undermine claims by Portuguese detectives who say evidence has been found to suggest Madeleine' s parents were involved in her death and disappearance.



Among the claims are suggestions that bloodstains from Madeleine have been found in the family' s holiday apartment in Praia da Luz, and that blood or other bodily fluids and hair were found in a car the McCanns hired five weeks after she disappeared.



But a source at Leicestershire Police has told the Daily Mail that the forensic evidence would bear little weight in a British court.



The source said the scientific evidence was fatally weakened by a failure to keep the crime scenes free from contamination.



Leicestershire Police have been helping Portuguese officers with the inquiry since the four-year-old' s disappearance in May. The Daily Mail' s source has dealt with the Forensic Science Service in Birmingham, which has undertaken key scientific work for Portugal.



The source said: " The forensic evidence the Portuguese have is very flaky. The preservation of the crime scenes carried out by the Portuguese police was very poor - every man and his dog has been to the crime scene at the apartment, and used the McCanns' hire car.



" It means it' s very hard to pin down where any fluids or other sources of DNA came from in the first place. And as for Madeleine' s hair being found in the hire car - well, of course it could be. Hair stays around for ages, and sticks to clothes. So Madeleine' s hair has been found in the boot? So what?"



The comments follow an offer from Sir Alec Jeffreys, the inventor of DNA fingerprinting, to act as an expert witness for the McCanns.



The source added: " There have been claims that analysis of the hair could show whether Madeleine had been drugged on the night she disappeared, to support suggestions she could have died after being heavily sedated.



" That won' t happen. Toxicology tests could show what, if any, drugs or medicines she consumed over several months or years, but not on one specific night.



" I don' t think any of this evidence will end up in court. I really don' t think the McCanns could end up in jail as a result of this evidence, under any fair judicial process."



He was surprised that although the McCanns hadn' t been charged, they were paying for independent forensic tests on the hire car.



" It' s going to be a waste of time looking at that car. All of the evidence should have been taken out of it by the police. But saying that, of course, in England the police would have kept the car as well, because we' re so careful about preserving forensic evidence for potential court cases."



There was only one development that would give police something solid to go on, said the source. " If they found a body, things would be different."



Meanwhile, Sir Alec said given that Madeleine' s parents and brother and sister had all been in the hire car, establishing anything solid would be difficult.



" There are no genetic characters in Madeleine that are not found in at least one other member of the family.



" So then you have an incomplete DNA profile that could raise a potential problem in assigning a profile to Madeleine, given that all other members of that family would have been in that car."



Forensic science consultant Desmond Thomas, former deputy head of Hampshire CID, said convictions were only likely if a body or a murder weapon was found.
