I'm trying to understand how Maddie could have banged her head after falling off the sofa, leaving blood for the McCanns to clean up. Did they have time..
I somehow don't believe David Payne's account about going to apartment 5a to see Kate McCann whilst Gerry was supposedly still playing tennis! I think that part is made up! Payne couldn't have seen the McCanns three children alive during the two or three minutes he says he was there with Kate! I think Maddie was already dead by that stage! Payne made the story up about seeing all three children alive and well, before he returned to the tennis court, after collecting his equipment from his own apartment! I believe that Kate sedated Maddie because of the commotion and fuss created by Maddie during the previous evening, when she and the other two children had been heard crying ! On that occasion it appears that the McCanns had not returned to the apartment to check on their children's safety every 30 minutes or so! I believe Kate over sedated her daughter, and her husband, with the help of the others sought to cover up the death! The 9.30pm check of the McCann apartment was key to the removal of the body from inside the apartment! It is not just a coincidence that neither parent attended at that time, or that Gerry had done the early check (9.05am) and Kate left to make the later check (10pm) to raise the alarm! Two of the tapas group who left the tapas bar at around 9.30pm, each played a role in the child's disappearence! Only one of the two entered apartment 5a via the patio door and carried out a Mickey mouse check without physically seeing Maddie at all! The second chap went to the front of the apartment block, and entered 5a via the unlocked front roadside doorway! He picked up the child's body and left in the direction of the car park at the front of the building! At the top of the road, he turned left and then just before he turned right there was a religious statue and some waste land! Maddie's body was concealed in the shrubbery near to the aforementioned statue! In the mean time, the group member (Matt) returned to the tapas restaurant and told the parents that everything was fine back at the McCann apartment! The truth is, it was a coded message, their way of saying to the parents in a public setting that they had removed the child's body! As time moved on Kate must have been frantic with worry and decided to do her now we'll reported 10pm check! By the time she was setting the bedroom door, and it slammed shut, and the curtains flailed, because the bedroom window was open, the steel shutter raised, and of course the abductor of Maddie's body who had removed the body to the prearranged location near to the statue, had returned back to apartment 5a and met with Kate! She didn't use her mobile phone to raise the alarm, or go to the balcony of the patio door and shout from the top of her voice that her daughter was missing! There was no need to, because at least two people back at the tapas bar already knew that Maddie had died (GM and Matt). These two people knew that any time soon immediately after Kate went to do the 10pm check that Maddie would be reported as missing! She didn't leave her other two children alone when she went back to the tapas bar to raise the alarm, because David Payne remained in apartment 5a! As soon as Kate got back to the tapas bar, she started yelling, 'they've taken her, theyv'e taken her, Maddie is gone'!!
The significance of these comments, 'theyv'e taken her, theyv'e taken her, Maddie is gone', providing a key insight into the mindset of Kate, who knew that during the 9.30pm check, that Matt and David had gone to the McCan apartment to get rid of the body! Kate's comments aforementioned, now being fully understood in the wake of what is now believed to have happened!
Matt and David played a key role in the disappearence of Maddie's body, David carrying the body out of the apartment and hiding it in shrubbery near to the aforementioned statue!
Once the alarm was raised, Gerry McCann Raced off to collect his daughters body from the location where it had been conveniently placed! He picked up his daughters lifeless body and carried it down in the direction of the beach where he crossed paths with the Smith contingent! The street where this occurred was well lit by street lamps! At the end of that street was 'LUZDOC', by the time GM had passed the Smiths carrying Maddie, the LUZDOCs was closed, so he made his way to the local church, with the derelict building directly opposite! He concealed his daughters body in that building!
