McCanns going too far?

Shouldn't have killed their kid then should they?
The McCann's are not doing a very good job publicising it then, I had no idea so much reward money had been put forward.
What resort were they at again?
Personally I feel sorry for their other children. This thing is destroying their lives with them seemingly being side lined. After all this time I think they should have cut their losses and spent their resources by keeping their jobs and concentrating on bringing up their other children in a stable, press free environment.
Why the rolleyes. We have no idea, what's going on, the newspapers are making up story's. The Sun today said, the hair contained toxcology that went with the overdose theory. Yet you can't get such data from hair until it grows out. If she died almost instantly, the hair would contain no such data. We really need to wait and see what the police really have. All though i see it unlikely, I just can't see when they had time to hide the body before the meal, in the 5 weeks and when they had time to put the body in the car with the media.
He casually talked to holiday makers on the way back to the hotel to check on them. They both did an amazing act over the meal to hide there feelings.
I'm not rulling it out as there are some very cold icy people. I just find it unlikely.
I somewhat agree Nymins. We possess very few facts to come to any real conclusion about what happened. The police release NO information so people coming to the conclusion of "they dun it" are basing that on leaks from people milking the situation or simply because they "hav' that look". Quite obviously, that's just silly. Speculation is fine but in the grand scheme of things, we know very little.
Whilst I agree with you that the Sun probably completely made this 'fact' up I would point out that it is possible for the hair to contain proof as your hair continues to grow after you die.
Well whatever turns out of have happened it will be "unlikely", the whole event is unlikely. There are some seriously crazy people in the world - unlikely as it obviously is the McCanns could end up joining that exclusive club.
Just today we have a man charged with the murder of his two-year-old daughter.
Of course people murder there children, I just find this case unlikely as I can't see when they had time toi do everything they had to.
I very much doubt the minute growth would be enough to get a toxicology report on it.
Actually not true at all. Your body dehydrates after you die and so your skin 'shrinks' which makes it look like your hair and finger nails continue growing.
the report could indicate a history of drug use?
gah, i can't believe i'm posting speculative nonsense.
as much as i don't like them, i don't think they did it.
Why do the portugese think getting mrs mccanns diary is so important. Do they think shes going to write something like.
4pm - After a nice day arond the pool with gerry and the kids we decided we would go out for an evening meal tonight

can;t believe they killed here just cuz she would not go to sleep 
well she is a devout Catholic and a diary is meant to be a very personal thing, so there may some clues.
