Like I said if they were not white middle class ,I'm pretty sure they would have been in serious hot water with the negligence. I don't understand how people can defend them.

Awful. Remember everyone talking about her the day after she vanished when I was in Sixth Form. Seems like only a few years ago. Time flies.

Like, even if they didn’t directly kill her, which there are a lot of people including myself that are suspicious they did, they still indirectly killed her due to negligence and if they didn’t have the connections/white privilege they would’ve saw consequences instead of all of this sympathy, platform, resources and money.

Wasnt there an Irish couple that claimed to see a guy carrying a girl that looked like Maddie at the time of her disappearance at the hotel then later claimed that the man they saw was Gerry?

But excuses are still being made for them, despite the McCann's behaviour being suspicious and worrying.

Yep, they had a drawing made up of him down to the trousers that matched a pair Gerry had with buttons down the sides and then later when they saw Gerry on TV called the Police and said it was definitely Gerry they saw that night

Its not excuses though...just because one person sees their behaviour as 'suspicious' doesnt mean everyone does. There could be a perfectly good reason why they did things the way they did.
At the end of the day the decision they made cost them their daughters life and will haunt them for the remainder of theirs.

I disagree. She was hated for leaving her children unattended... Most people would just want to curl up and die. Keeping themselves in the public eye kept the momentum going.

I don’t think they did it, they were negligent though, I remember when our first son was born taking him to a hotel. We left him sleeping, went downstairs with the baby monitor to the bar, after 10 minutes neither of us could settle and were convinced the monitor wasn’t working, so Mr C went back up and made noise, it was, but it just didn’t feel right so that was that, back upstairs No way could I have gone for a full meal with an open door and a swimming pool in between where the kids were sleeping and we were

Yeah the Pool would have always been my first fear in that situation(and I would have thought in most other parents too) which was why i thought it was odd that her first thought was that someone (actually more than one person because she said "they" ) had kidnapped her
