They aren't against human rights. I polygraph test would be perfectly acceptable. With a properly trained polygrapher, they ARE 97% accurate and if we apply this to both parents- if the results showed desception, we are talking an incredibly low chance that those results are false.

I'm not saying it should be used as the only evidence to convict them- but could certainly be used as part of the evidence against them. Remember- guilt is decided by courts of humans, based on things that may or may not be fact, as provided by witnesses who may also not be accurate- 97% is better than a lot of people get in court...

The people who provide a polygraph service are bound to claim a high rate otherwise no one would buy the service...

To force someone to have a polygraph would be a blatent intrusion on human rights as polygraph results are not evidence of proof as long as there is the remotest chance of it being wrong..

You cannot even force people to answer questions let alone take gimmicky lie detectot tests...

The ones conducted by professionals are not gimmicky and they don't make up the accuracy percentage.

Also, as I said, I think it'd be perfectly acceptable. Look at how the court system works. Is that always 100% accurate? Are witnesses always 100% accurate? No. And it wouldn’t be the only evidence used, but part of the evidence used for/ against them.

When Louise Woodward was convicted of murdering that baby, she did a lie detector test, which confirmed she was telling the truth and, along with other evidence (or lack of), the charges were dropped and she was released. So it wasn’t the only evidence used for her case but it certainly strengthened it.

Now if the McCann’s had nothing to hide, you'd think they'd want to do one, especially considering there are two of them, so they could do two separate tests and the results would be even more accurate. I bet you anything, if they’d have been charged, like louse was of murder, they’d do one to try and clear their name.

The police have some weird thing with human rights, if you dont want to answer a question in a police interview you don't have too, but surely they can twist the rules a little bit to allow extreme cases like this. They dont have to use it as a hard answer, such as if they killed her or not. But it could be used to push the detectives in the right direction, if its wrong then so what. Its just faulty evidence like you get all the time, but if its right... then some major actions can be taken.
Small questions like... "Have you seen madeline after she disappeared?" or "Did you check on madeline?"

In the Louise Woodward case the lie detector results were never allowed in court as evidence.....So made not a jot of difference to the outcome.

As for the rest I will just have to agree to disagree .....

Just suprised that with some people suspecting them, they wouldn't choose to go down that route.

cctv fotage in belguim not maddie!! but kate and gerry will keep serching!

[Nurse57]

What I don't get is, if I saw a girl i was 100% sure was her. I would do something about it. Call the police and follow them. What would you do?

[serensilver]

i agree if i saw her i wouldn't let her out of my sight i'd scream her name etc just to get more people around me and her more chance of getting her back!

Thats what I dont get..... The pictures that we have seen of Maddy before she was taken are crystal clear..... I would know if I saw her, especially with her tale tale eye.

[Sticks]

But you will see what you want to see, not what is there

[Nurse57]

"But you will see what you want to see, not what is there"

That is true, but if you wanted it to be her and thus you were convinced then would you not follow whilst on the phone to the police?

i do strongly believe they are guilty they admitted to frequently sedating their children and to leaving them on their own which in its self is so very wrong and if they were not drs they would of like any body else faced charges of neglect

[MR.K!]

The thing is they should be charged with neglect anyway. Afterall they did abandon thier children in a foreign country to go to the pub!

A perfect description of religous beliefs......

[Lewis.]

This is a case that I used to wake up every morning and hope that there was a good bit of news, a sighting or something, anything to get her back. I have strong opinions on this case and believe that If she was used in a Paedophile ring, it would be too risky. Her Kidnappers would not have done that. Her parents would have had to both be very sick and Ill to want to kill their own child, and it is quite obvious that they had nothing to do with it. One part of me believes she was Kidnapped and that she has most probably been killed. Another part of me believes that she was kidnapped and is still alive, maybe had a complete make-over and living in somewhere where the publicity of the story is not as high. I was looking on youtube and was examining some of these video's

But look at the crime statistics, most murders happen with in the family.

[Lewis.]

I understand that, but the police would have known for definate by now. I mean the Dna in the car, yes the car was hired after Maddie was taken, but that doesn't mean to say that there was never any Dna on clothing, or her Teddy, that may have been in the car. Police have not found any Proof that Maddie may have been murdered by Kate and Gerry, that doesn't have a more likely coincidential cause
