My first thought was ffs why are they spending even more taxpayer's money on this girl when there are literally thousands of missing children. But what if the "final line of enquiry" is that the parents did it? I've always had my suspicions that they are dodgy as ****.

Hopefully the sick child abductor will be brought to justice

I'm sorry but this whole thing has just been cover-up and pardons one after the other, the police should grow a pair and get those two in and grill them if they want to find anything out.

EVERYTHING points to them!

This has always stuck with me, too: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/u...-a7710111.html

Scousers can't be middle-class. It's a rule.

Does anyone actually care anymore? Sounds harsh, but way too much money has been spent on this that I don't see how any more is going to help.

[Marsh.]

Can you imagine the uproar if they did charge them with anything now after all the time and money that they've wasted?

They have more reason to cover any discovery up now than they did even back then in 2007.

[LaLaLand]

Tbh I think there are thousands+ people who would honestly just be happy to see them done for neglect/child cruelty, which they should have been.

Sedating your kids so you can go out and have a meal alone? Absolutely shocking.

[Marsh.]

Definitely but after the decade of appeals, TV specials, fund raising. Ugh. There'd be uproar.

Of course, there are those who have been against them from the start.

[jaxie]

I do wonder what they hope to achieve by spending more money on this after all this time. Surely if here was anything, anything at all in the way of evidence or clues, they'd have found it by now. If there was an abducter involved the trail is stone cold by now. If they were ever going to look critically at the parents they would have done so by now.

hope i’m alive to find out the truth

I agree jaxie,i really don't know why more money is being thrown at this when this money could go towards other needy causes etc,it's just a waste,Madeline is long gone,plus as has been said before there are thousands of kids that are missing,why isn't money thrown at finding them ? also the mother of the toddler who died when the car slipped into the water is being investigated for neglect,so why weren't the McCanns investigated and charged with neglect,I do think they are well dodgy aswell.

if she is still alive now i would find that a miracle from heaven

Yep. Makes it look even more like a friends in high places cover up aswell, I mean no one gets that much police time and tax payers money thrown at them and still coming 11 years after the incident

[bitontheslide]

i'm quite happy for money to be continued to be allocated to it. For the duration that money is allocated, there is still the opportunity for there to be focus on exactly what happened, and if that means proving there has been a cover up etc, all the better. When money dries up, there is less accountability, less focus on what actually went on

Yeah but 11 years down the line though? if they were going to look in any other direction other than the exact same one that's brought up nothing, why would they suddenly start now?

[Daniel-X]

The case of white, middle-class, blonde girl strikes again!

[Oliver_W]

At this point ... what's the point? Best case scenario is she was sold on the black market and adopted by a new family, and she'll have little to no memory of the McCanns - why whisk her away from what she sees as her family to give her to strangers who left her sedated and unsupervised?

Unfortunately for her, I doubt that's the case Poor kid never left that apartment alive imo (and the two sniffer dogs)

The same dogs that discovered blood in the family's rental car that was found to be Madeleine's... yet nothing came of it...

mmhhmmm the same dogs that detected blood and cadaver odour in all these locations :


Among the great number of objects and locales inspected, the dogs marked the following places:
1. Apartment 5A, Ocean Club resort, the place from where the child disappeared.
1.1. Cadaver odour
* Master bedroom, in a corner, by the wardrobe
* Living room, behind the sofa, by the side window
1.2. Blood dog:
* Living room behind the sofa, close to the lateral window (on the same spot signalled by the cadaver dog);
2. Front garden to the apartment 5A
2.1. Cadaver dog
* Flower bed (the dog handler commented on the 'lightness' of the odor)
3. Apartments where the rest of the group were staying
* NOTHING was detected by the dogs
4. Actual residence of the McCann
* NOTHING was detected on the house by any of the dogs
5. St Aldeia da Luz
* NOTHING was detected by any of the dogs
6. Clothes and belongings of McCann family
6.1. Cadaver dog:
* 2 pieces of clothing of Kate McCann
* One piece of Madeleine McCann
* Madeleine's soft toy
* The odour was detected when the toy was still in the interior of the actual residence of the McCann
* It was confirmed in out of the house conditions
7. Vehicle used by McCann family
7.1. Cadaver dog:
* Marked the key of the car
* Marked the interior of the booth
7.2 Blood dog
* Marked the key
* Marked the interior of the booth
8. Car used by a family friend that was staying in the same resort, in some of the same days
* Nothing was detected by any of the dogs
9. All the cars used by the arguido Robert Murat and the people that are close to him
* Nothing was detected by any of the dogs

(In a total of 10 cars the cadaver dog and the blood dog only marked the car of the McCann family, rented at May 27th)

The places and the pieces marked and signalled by the blood dog are being subjected to forensic exams, part of which are already concluded.

Not less relevant is the refinement of the results that point towards Madeleine's DNA as being present at the apartment 5A behind the sofa, a place marked by the cadaver and blood dog. In every place marked by the blood dog it was confirmed there was DNA.

That's actually terrifying!

As awful as it sounds, I honestly wouldn't be surprised to turn on the news one day and see that they've slipped up/admitted it.

I couldn't ever see them admitting it

[Maru]

Casey Anthony 2.0?... that one I'm still shocked about even thought it was obvious she changed her story to make it sound like she and her father covered up a drowning because it appeared they were losing...

'Casey Anthony:' Dad George Anthony calls drowning theory 'a bunch of bull'
https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/...ull/100320622/

Don't know enough about this case though to compare, but would not be surprised to see justice go sideways... (edit) there's often some sort of self-serving optics when it comes to prosecutions... sad but true, but that is sometimes a factor in charges, especially overcharges. So that may be a concern too...

[Niamh.]

The McCann case is so interesting when you look into it Maru. I don't know loads about the Casey Anthony one but at least they were caught (I think)

Unfortunately no, Casey Anthony (the mother) was let go on time already served only on charges for lying to police I think... they found chloroform in the back of her car and a bunch of other evidence that she murdered her own kid, but her mother covered for her saying she was the one who googled Chloroform or some other dodges like that... the attorney sold the jury on the story of her being the victim and I guess they bought it... it was a shock outcome.

The Jon Benet Ramsey case is probably the most comparable... I'll have to read up on the McCann case but it was in the news here many years ago.
