Not a Word Our optimism continues nicely upwards. The four and a half year old prediction mentioned the other day - that nothing would ever come out to add strength to the parents’ claims - has now reached serious confirmation territory. Seven years is the normal legal period for a declaration of death, i.e. the time when an unknown can formally be accepted as probable fact. Our prediction, which covers much more than any single missing person death (it includes all the case files and the entirety of the evidence, known and unknown, for a start) is now two thirds of the way there without a single instance of attempted falsification. And Operation Grange, we predict with complete confidence, will not add one. And in that regard can we point you, gently, to the Summers study? There’s no reason for people to distrust Summers in this regard since his motives are irrelevant. What matters is that the couple met him early on, were reassured by his approach and retained a line of communication with him for use as necessary. Fine. Now ask yourself this question: if the McCanns had received a single suggestive titbit from Operation Grange’s three years’ work, just one new piece of evidence supporting them, would they not have given it to Summers? Summers is a well-known, friendly and supposedly neutral voice. He is outside the tired and now de-fanged Mitchell/Mirror leaks nexus. He has met the Yard, so the McCanns cannot be fingered as a source. He is also highly receptive: McCanns: Ordeal is over; “A new book describes the evidence that will bring an end to the couples uncertainty”; “Gerry: now we can sleep at night!”– how Summers would have loved to boost his flaccid pre-pub hype with phrases like that. And? As a world-famous doctor once said, “They’ve got nothing!” The McCanns didn’t give him anything because Grange has given them absolutely zero. Not a fact, not even fine words. Over three years work and the investigators haven’t been able to ring them up and say, “Kate,” – nobody speaks to Gerry – “things are looking good.” Or, more grimly, “Mrs McCann, we can’t bring your daughter back but we have a key witness…” Not even, “Kate, you can stop worrying.” They’ve got nothing.
