Maddie’s Blanket Missing from the Ocean Club

[pm]

Could it have been used in a funerary ceremony at the Luz chapel? Gonçalo Amaral doesn't dismiss that as possibility.

The issue was brought to light, in an enigmatic approach, during the interview given by the McCann couple to Oprah Winfrey. What had happened to the blanket that Maddie used to be covered with – almost as if it was a protective and comforting safeguard – and that was photographed by the PJ, in the day of her disappearance from the Ocean Club apartment, on the bed of the English girl? Gerry and Kate gulped in silence and were unable to answer in a consistent manner to the mediatic TV show host.

Gonçalo Amaral, the former inspector who coordinated the investigations on the case, in declarations to the «SP» recalls to have seen the blanket in the Ocean Club apartment, on the evening of the 3rd of May, close to cuddle cat (the plush toy), that the child usually carried with her. The former inspector thought that it was odd that that blanket went missing in the immediate days that followed, when searches where made to locate the child. And he highlights, that incidentally, the textile fibres (in connection with the cadaver odour scented by the British dogs) were detected in the Renault Scenic that the McCann Couple rented in the Algarve and which was used in a long and mysterious trip that they made to Spain.

As a result of the investigations that have been made by own account after he was removed from the case, Gonçalo Amaral does not dismiss the possibility that the said blanket was used as a funeral blanket in a secret funerary ceremony made in the church of Luz, sustaining that illation in depositions from sources that he believes to be credible, between them, the one of Father José Manuel Pacheco from the Luz chapel [see previous post].

Still according to the former inspector, the Catholic Church knows about that secret which might be, supposedly, known to high positioned figures inside the clergy. In fact, one poorly clarified point in this strange story is the fact that the couple had access to the church keys, which were handed to them by the Anglican priest, who has justified that fact with the necessity of praying for their daughter, away of the media spotlights.

Yet again another mystery. Another item that has gone missing. Another unanswerable question.

How does anyone still think this couple are not lying?

I have started a thread about this on Sky - let's see who posts first and what ballcocks they come out with

Why dont the police ask the McCanns to produce that blanket...thats one way of knowing for sure if its missing or not!

Blankets would be able to contain lots of DNA! Bet its gone for good. Wasn't a shower curtain involved as well!

The only object they don't misplace is cash and there is plenty of that around for them.

Wasn't the very first abductor carrying " a bundle which might have been a child" wrapped in a blanket ?

An attempt to explain away the missing article, but had to be discarded to make way for the pinky aspect pyjamas ?

Gerry Mccann should never have been allowed back in the apartment the following day to collect "some things" he left with a bucket and spade plus a suitcase. Now, what was in that suitcase?...The blanket and cuddle cat...possibly.The first interview the mccanns did was on the 4th.....Kate was holding cuddle cat.....

They had this all planned. Blame Murat and in the meantime creep around destroying all the evidence pointing to you and your friends.

Hey IRONSIDE, good to see you here.

[IRONSIDE]

Thank you for the welcome. I found your site by pure chance and thought it looked interesting so joined up....I 'as you know live in Spain and am keeping a close eye on the news with regrads to the Yeremi vargis case....the police here have no suspects but the mccanns Super Cops seem to think the chap locked up in a british prison has a connection to this young boy....we all no it is pink spin...and it has gone deathly quiet after the Hewlett saga went pear shaped.
