It is worth noting, that it was around this time (9.15pm to 9.30pm) that Stephen Carpenter claims that he and the rest of his family crossed the street after leaving the Ocean club reception, and that he saw no-one in the street at that time, only noticing a number of motor vehicles that were parked up at the kerb in the street on the McCann Apartment and Ocean club reception side of the road....
In particular he mentions seeing what he thought was a black coloured Ford Focus parked up there..
Thereupon having crossed the street en route back to their apartment, how his wife had overheard someone calling out, 'Madeleine, Madeleine'...
Well, this is astonishing, because what we don't yet know, is whether this very telling piece of evidence, was spoken about by Madeleine McCanns abductor, before Russell O'Brien and Mathew Oldfield did their 9.30pm check, or afterwards?
