If there was real evidence out there, the Portuguese police who seemed pretty keen on it being them at one point, would have made it happen by now. I'n not saying it couldn't possibly be them, but the moving parts involved in pulling something like this off, is certainly beyond most people.

I don't think they are murderers, not by a long stretch. I don't think anyone actually killed Madeleine that night. I don't even think Kate had anything to do with it, nor the other friends and I fully believe they were telling the truth with their statements (that add up). I just find the abduction story so hard to believe. Especially now that Jane Tanners view of the abductor (for 6 years) has been chucked out and it appears that the last person to see Maddie was Gerry.
ETA. Basically, I think that Madeleine had an accident in the apartment soon after her parents left. Gerry found her when he did his check. Panicked like **** knowing that they would be suspects. Hid the body somewhere close knowing the alarm would be raised before long (if they were checking every half hour) then used the panic and 'searching' to get rid of the body. I believe the smiths sighting was Gerry. Considering Martin Smith originally said he was 60-80% sure the man he saw was Gerry too....
Of course I could be way off the mark, but to me this makes more sense than the abduction/failed burglary lines
The reason the case keeps being brought up by them IMO, is because the mother believes her child was abducted and obviously the father can't tell her/anyone the truth.
