nobody knows what really went down. We know the parents could have been more responsible when it happened. We know they have been less than helpful on occasion. We know the Portuguese police were incompetent. We know the parents knew some high up members of the then labour government. Apart from that, we know nothing

Exactly, there's no proof at all either that someone broke in and took her but people are happy to run with that and refer to the McCanns as "loving parents" when they're absolute strangers to them (and to all of us) People talk about odds and what's more likely, ignoring that in actual fact if you're talking odds, it's more likely that the parents were involved than an opportunistic stranger breaking in and snatching her. Not saying that's definitely what happened of course but as you say none of us know because there's no evidence either way (unless you count the dogs of course but I don't believe that is admissible in court)

Madeleine McCann cops in Portugal are ‘probing NEW suspect’
 

Or the suspect or me ?

Who knows

Apologies to Gusto though in hindsight

What about the facts that a known child molester / paedo was in the town the very night she disappeared according to phone his records in the possession of the police ?

Yet some would rather believe the parents killed her ?

there is likely a known child molester on every street in this country, it's a lot more common than you seem to imply

I agree

There are probably so many decisions we've all made that could have taken an awful turn depending on what happened, obviously we don't know they weren't involved and I'm still not really sure what I think about the situation tbh but it's not really helpful to blame them regardless

Exactly what BOTS said.

I don't want to believe the parents did something to her, why would I want to believe that? Also if they did, it could be covering up her accidental death because they drugged her so she would sleep while they were out. I'm not suggesting they killed her or did anything to her to purposely cause her death. There are many possibilities

I was referring to the others in here who seem to be unwaveringly convinced that the parents did unthinkable things that night


“ yet SOME in here “

It's not desperation. :laugh:

It's just nothing adds up with the McCanns. There story is full of holes and nothing they say makes any sense.

Check out former Portuguese detective Goncalo Amaral's book about the McCanns and missing Maddie, titled The Truth of the Lie (A Verdade Da Mentira). He makes some excellent points no one can say isn't true.

Also, the McCanns tried to sue him but failed to win

The German Police Team
used a JCB digger in some locations

I wouldn't even go down to the bins with my son still in the house alone, it's absolutely bizarre to even consider.

Police have been scouring scrubland and abandoned structures near the Portuguese town of Praia da Luz, where the three-year-old British girl was last seen 18 years ago.

They spent two days focusing on one particular derelict building, using a ground-penetrating radar on the cobbled ground after clearing the area of debris and vegetation.

There was an option to extend the search until tomorrow if any clues had been found - but officers turned up "nothing of consequence".

Shocking new Madeleine McCann claim that British man and his 'drunk' German wife ran the child over then dumped the body at sea emerges in Portuguese media report

German prosecutors have been accused by Portuguese media of failing to properly investigate a claim that Madeleine McCann was run over by a drunk driver.

Portuguese officers allegedly received a tip about a British man who was 'covering up a dark secret' about his German wife running over Madeleine while drunk, then hiding the body.

But German authorities rejected a Portuguese request to use an undercover police officer to try to befriend the wife and firm up their suspicions, Portuguese daily Correio da Manha has claimed.

Germans now leaving

…yes, it seemed like a very short renewed search of a now major suspect…not that I feel that anything in any search will be uncovered now of any significance after all of this time…

So it was definitely the paedo guy but now it's a couple who knocked her down? So are they now saying she woke up and went outside? So not snatched from her bed? [emoji849]

…I think that it’s a ‘theory’ based in very little at all so doubt that it’ll gain any traction other than that DM article…but also nothing of any relevance has been found in this new search apparently….and the paedophile, Brueckner is due to be freed from prison in Germany in a few months, in September…with no charges been made with regards to Madeleine…
