Krugel , a fraudster..,,,employed by the McCanns
r Krugel's Claims Regarding the Location of Madeleine McCann
09-Processo Vol 9...Pages 2225
Snippet from Mark Harrison's report
A Mr Krugel, at the McCann's request, attended Praia Da Luz last week from South Africa alleging he could assist in locating Madeleine McCann. I have spoken with the Police officers that accompanied him and viewed the documentation Krugel has supplied to the PJ.
The limiting factor in coming to a view is that Krugel did not allow anyone to view the handheld device he had with him or observe him using it. He was unable to provide any validating scientific data or documents to support the claims he made or the device he alleged to have with him. In short he would appear to claim he has uniquely developed a handheld device that can find a missing person alive or dead in any given terrain over any elapsed time period.
In debriefing the officers who accompanied Krugel it is possible to hypothesise what he may have been doing and using.
In consultation with a colleague Dr Wolfram Meier-Augenstein we feel he may have been attempting to give the impression he had developed and was using a "Remote Laser based gas sensing device". However his claims regarding the distance of detection, up to 20km and the use of a hair sample are highly unlikely and would be a great innovation in the scientific world. Further provenance of this technique could be sought from Prof. Miles Padgett who is a Professor of optics in physics at the University of Glasgow (m.padaett@phvsics.nla.ac.ukte1+44 1413305389)
One obvious challenge to the claims of the device capability is that if Krugel claims that by taking 3 separate location readings he is able to triangulate to an area then one would assume that as an area was identified further reading and triangulation inside that area could be conducted repeatedly until an "X marked the spot H.
Of most concern is the poor quality of his report which merely shows a google earth image of an area to the east of Praia Da Luz and includes open smb land, beach and sea. As Krugel was not prepared to allow the device to be viewed or provide any specification data of readings or equipment and the fact that no known device currently exists commercially or academically then I can only conclude that the information he has provided is likely to be of low value.
=======================================
How could SY and Portugal be taken in by this guy.!!!!

Hi panda,
but didn't his route he said Maddie must have taken match the dogs findings? And he said she was buried on the beach?
But for the simple fact he matched the dogs l think his findings do need ruling out. Kate soon sent him packing didn't she?

Hi margaret, I just cannot believe that this new investigation is based on the work of Krugel !!!! Whose idea was it SY or Portugal???? As if enough money has not already been wasted by SY , what's the betting nothing is found .

Hi wjk......I can't believe that SY and the Portugese decided to spend yet more money on searching, based on this Guy's "expertise". If Kate was honest she would have advised against this , they don't care do they the McCanns, safe in the knowledge that nothing will be found.

So where does it say it is Krugels evidence that has prompted this latest action from SY ?

Lioned , this is the full post, probably Brunt who said it because he is in PDL and updating quite often. Looks like they have read the Report and decided to emulate Krugel but with the Radar .

Of most concern is the poor quality of his report which merely shows a google earth image of an area to the east of Praia Da Luz and includes open scrub land, beach and sea. As Krugel was not prepared to allow the device to be viewed or provide any specification data of readings or equipment and the fact that no known device currently exists commercially or academically then I can only conclude that the information he has provided is likely to be of low value....Harrison.

Morning chrissie, as I explained to Lioned, it is on the sky report thread. Martin Brunt talking to the sky news desk when he said this , it is not written anywhere. Probably this new Radar equipment was likened to Krugels' leaf.

Re: Krugel , a fraudster..,,,employed by the McCanns
Krugel is a simple charlatan... like the man who used a dumb and useless golf ball finding mechanism which itself did not work to hoodwink armies across the world into buying it to detect hidden bombs. Why does ANYBODY give characters like him, or 'mediums', or other oddball spooky-dooky persons even the time of day?

Re: Krugel , a fraudster..,,,employed by the McCanns
Who here would ever have heard of this man, if not for the McCann case ? How and why did the McCanns contact him ? July 2007 he arrived, I think. Very early into the saga, they found out about this man, investigated his methodology, thought about using him, talked about it, contacted him, and hey presto he arrived. All in a few short weeks, at what must have been one of the busiest times of their whole "campaign".
I just don't understand how they came to be aware of such an unusual man and his equipment, at that point in time. Did he charge them ? If so how much and who paid ?
