Re: Exams

The present investigation deals with the disappearance of the four year old minor, MADELEINE BETH MCCANN, on the 3rd of May of the current year, 2007, in Praia da Luz, in Lagos. 

At this moment we have yet to determine more that would point to what occurred in the first twelve hours, after the disappearance was verified and the authorities were handed photographs of the minor for consequent disclosure. 

The type of photograph picture frame size (15,3 cm x 10,30 cm, approximately) is not practical to transport. 

The investigation solicited examination of the photographs which were delivered to you in order to answer the questions that follow: 

QUESTIONS: 

1. TIME/COLOUR:
Determine the ‘age’ of the photographs: 

2. PAPER
What machines/printers were used: 
a. ‘quick print’;
b. type of store/commercial centre laboratory;
c. other; 

3. CUT
d. If the photographs were cut by guillotine
e. If the sizes are standard

The examination questions have as their objective to determine: 
—-the age of the photographs, the age of the paper and/or the ink used
—-if the type of printer or machine which used roll paper or pre-cut paper with the exact size of the photographs;
—-determine if it is possible to ‘identify’ the machine/printer used for the photographs;
—-if the printing was made by a photograph machine or by a PC computer printer; 
—-to determine, following the collection of details, if the revelation/printer of the photographs were made in Portugal or in another country, 
Also to determine other facts/details in the same vein which may be considered of interest, over what was described. 

ATTACHMENTS:
–4 (four) photographs, being two photos in each position.
–The photographs represent a minor. 

With my best compliments

Chief Inspector
