Day 96 - 07/08/2007
Tuesday
Kate and I managed an early morning run today. It was pleasantly
cooler, with a refreshing breeze, which made a nice change. The media presence
in Praia da Luz is at its greatest since the first couple of weeks, as is the
amount of speculation and rumour regarding the investigation.
This morning we agreed to do a short, pooled interview that was
made available to all broadcasters worldwide. We wanted to make it clear, that
as far as we know, there is still absolutely no evidence that Madeleine has
been seriously harmed and Kate and I have to believe she is still alive. The
Portuguese police have assured us on numerous occasions that they are looking
for Madeleine and not a corpse. Of course all possibilities are being
considered and the police have to be certain before eliminating any of the
scenarios. It is absolutely right that we are subject to the same high
standards of investigation as anyone else. Kate and I have, and will continue
to assist the police in every possible way.
We hope there is a breakthrough in the investigation very soon.
In the meantime
the campaign to keep the public involved in the search for Madeleine continues. We are always trying to think of
ideas that will reach people who may not have heard of Madeleines
disappearance. I spent a couple of hours this afternoon working on forthcoming
events but did manage to squeeze in a much-needed haircut!
