Maddie - the plot thickens

[Clinton Baptiste]

Dont believe it personally. How someone could do that and then put on such a show of grief etc. I think the Portugese police have made a complete **** up of this investigation and are desperately trying to find a lead. I think someone abducted her killed her then fled the country.

 

[southend_shrimp]

But how on earth did her blood end up in the parents car they hired 5 weeks after she disappeared ? Come on explain it

There was that case in the US when the women who's two babys had been killed was on TV everyday crying, appealing for help and allsorts and it was found out she did it < or something along the lines of it cant remember exactly what happened

I think allegedly is the word here. Where is the factual evidence that her blood was in the car, until it's confirmed it's conjecture and speculation.

 

[Bob Cratchitt]

A long shot but the person who did abduct Madeline had hired the car, then gave it back before leaving the country, then the McCanns get given the same car. Remember 1 in a million chances always seem to happen in a ratio of 10-1.

Portuguese police have suggested to Kate McCann that traces of her daughter's blood were found in a car the family hired 25 days after the girl went missing,

But why suggest something when, there isnt any proof there is blood been found ?

Have seen that suggested but come off it! I mean there is just too much of a coinsidence for that of happened

Suggest not factual evidence.

I would suggest that the Portuguese police may be trying to shift some of the blame away from their incompetence.

Was it Conan Doyle who said "Once you've eliminated the impossible, what you have left, however improbably, must be true"?

Based on that, Mr Cratchitt's highly improbable scenario is indeed possible.

Sherlock Holmes indeed - trouble is, he was fictional.

The Portugese Police might aswell be.

 

[Firestorm]

bear in mind that these developments are after the british have been assisting in the investigation.
As for public grief, remember that case a few years ago where a girlfriend murdered that bloke in his car, concocted a tale of a road rage attack, she looked pretty convincing on telly as well.
Stranger adbuction is extremely rare, child deaths are nearly always someone known to the child, and there was hardly any signs of a struggle was there, the twins didn't even wake up !

Yes I remember that case - was very convincing indeed

Personally have always though there was something dodgy about the whole thing (didnt like their everyone leaves their kids at home while we go out drinking and eating comment which probably swayed me against them). This was 3 kids under 5 locked in a room of which one of them had been sick all day. Should those twins still be living with irresposible parents? They were decent people and doctors though so thats ok then!

 

[FeedTheGoat]

She's a doctor isn't she? I just don't see her killing her own kid in between dinner courses and then inviting the world's media over after the event - it would take quite a piece of work really...I'm not buying it at all.

I bet nobody expected a certain Dr. Shipman to terminate the lives of something like 300 patients either, but strange things do happen and you can't rule someone out just because of their profession.

The sad point about all this is that it will switch attention over to the conspiracy theories and make it a whodunnit, rather than a search for a missing girl.

Some huge accusations here - at holiday camps when I was a kid parents always used to bugger off to the bar and get ****ed up, leaving the kids asleep. You used to get the redcoats (whatever) walking around the site listening for crying kids and then reporting back to the bar, where you'd hear announcements: "Chalet 201, a child is crying....."

I still think that the parents are innocent, I think the Portuguese police are utterly useless and incompetent, and unfortunately this case will never ever be resolved on way or another.

 

[C C Csiders]

The big one for me was when the German journalist from a Berlin Radio station asked Mr McCann "what do you say when people say you have something to do with the disappearance of your daughter".

The natural reaction would have been to fly off the handle and react with anger, and perhaps even violence at such a heinous question.

He just said "that's not what the Portugeuse police are saying"

 

[Matt the Shrimp]

Have seen that suggested but come off it! I mean there is just too much of a coinsidence for that of happened

Why? How many car hire companies are there in Praia da Luz? How many family cars would that hire company have... a couple?

Not in the least improbable. F*** of a sight more likely than a mother killing her own daughter, to whom she'd given birth only a few years previously!

:thump:

.

And when you were a kid I bet your parents allowed you to travel in the car without seatbelts too, mine did.

Just because people used to do some ridiculous things doesnt make it right.

Id never leave my kids further than earshot, what if they had a nightmare and you werent there ?

Im still flabbergasted they left them alone.

I dont think they did it but if we assume they did the fact they left them alone is the basis of the "kidknapping" so would have been why they did it...

:thump:

I think you find a few storys that have only happened recently of mothers killing their own children

Number 1: The women in Barking not 3 weeks ago who stabbed her little girl.


Number 2: Chandler Grafner was a 7-Year old boy from the Denver area who was beaten and eventually starved to death on May 6, 2007 by his father Jon Phillips and his girlfriend Sarah Berry.

Number 3: Victoria Climbié killed by her guardians Marie-Thérèse Kouao and Carl Manning in London, England, in 2000.

There is 3 prime examples of parents who murder there own children i could probably list dozens more so it is not uncommon as you suggested! so therefore not even the parents can be ruled out of any murder or dissaperance of their children no matter how teary eyed they come acrossed!
