The case of Madeleine McCann could be solved in "a week thanks to the vital evidence of DNA"

April 20, 2019

A forensic expert has proposed to rebadyze 18 "inconclusive" DNA samples on Madeleine McCann's case. And he says the mystery could be solved in just one week.

Dr. Mark Perlin, forensic scientist, proposed to rebadyze "inconclusive" DNA samples from Madeleine McCann's research. but detectives of the Met police rejected the suggestion.

Dr. Perlin believes that the new techniques used by his Pittsburgh Cyber ​​Lab can clarify the case of Madeleine McCann. As a descendant, one of his most important works has been to identify the victims of 9/11.

Daily Star, a digital newspaper, asked him how long the tests would last. The doctor replied, "What we really need is the electronic information that comes out of the laboratory of their instruments.This is the standard starting point for DNA badysis. It would take us a week or two, depending on the data, after receiving it to provide an initial preliminary report. "

When she disappeared during a family holiday in Portugal in May 2007, Madeleine was only three years old. At that time, DNA samples were taken from swabs collected from the McCann family's vacation apartment. In addition, a car was rented after the sniffer dogs would have detected "the smell of death".

The crucial DNA sample was obtained from the trunk of a Renault Scenic silver. The same as Kate and Gerry McCann rented 25 days after Madeleine's disappearance in Praia da Luz.

This is one of 18 complex DNA samples, potentially rich in essential clues on the disappearance of Madeleine McCann. The police arrived at a dead end when the tests were inconclusive 12 years ago.

But the expert in the United States, Mr. Perlin, believes that new techniques could explode the case. "If a laboratory can produce informative data, even if it is complex and heterogeneous, but can not interpret it, then there can be a huge injustice: guilty parties who have not been convicted or innocent people who remain in prison. What is needed is an objective and accurate interpretation that can scientifically solve DNA, "he said.
