Woman who helped solve Stephen Lawrence death vows to take Madeleine McCann case

She's got impressive credentials but not sure how she'd set up a reconstruction of 5a.

The best bits have already been taken if you are doing DNA profiling for example, and you have to be really careful to not make the assumption that investigating officers fully understood the crime scene.In such cases, elaborate reconstructions need to be staged – sometimes years or even decades after a crime was committed.

The words "vows to take the McCann case" in the headline are I think the teensiest bit misleading.

The article then goes on to say that Professor Gallop wants to help find Maddy (tisk, tisk, we know she was never called that!) which isn't the same. I wonder if she even said anything like that - more likely that it was a general statement to the effect that it would be a challenging case to take on if she was inclined to do so.

I will eat my hat if she does get involved.

If the McCann case had been treated politically and forensically on a par with the Lawrence case it's fair to say that at least two people would be doing time for Maddie's disappearance as I type this.

Another odd McCann story. So a scientist just off the cuff decides she'd quite like a go at solving the 'maddy case'

...but so casual is her interest that she has no idea what happened to the samples?! Then why bother opening your mouth...unless someone somewhere prompted you to.

Weird that we got another link to the Royal Family/Diana.

Yep I was just reading that and apparently she had something to do with the cast of the teeth that was compared to Savile for the Yorkshire ripper?  You know Jimmy Savile, the completely lone predator who wasn't connected to anyone else at all...
