Even a mammoth liar cannot be expected to remember everything and keep to a hastily planned script .The twins in Rothley had their own room, as did Madeleine. The cleaner saw one cot in the parents room and one in the room where it is alleged Madeleine slept, May 2nd. Time has gone by and the story has changed for 'the crying incident' later to become ' mummy why 'did'nt you come when Sean and I were crying? '' BUT May 4th McCann had this to say...
.....he says that nothing unusual happened, only referring to an episode on the morning of the 3rd May, when Madeleine asked the witness the reason why they had not gone to her room when the twins were crying. As he did not hear anything, the witness did not go to the bedroom, however he finds his daughter's comment to be strange, maybe because it was the first time that she had made it.
McCann , the staged abduction forgotten, repeated something Madeleine had said at home in the past when the twins had cried and one of the parents settled them back down to sleep, she would ask 'why did you not come to my room' or as he has said here 'her room'....had the children all been together McCann would have remembered to say 'OUR room'.....The twins slept with the parents which indicates both cots were in their room, but we will only know for sure during the libel trial when this witness is called to confirm when she cleaned the apartment on other days where the cots were situated.
McCann, further on in his statement did realize his mistake and tried to make amends.... stressing the children were all together
Yesterday, after their daily routine, Madeleine and the twins went to their bedroom "and were placed in their respective beds and he stresses they were placed together [i.e. in the same bedroom], at about 19.30."
