Madeleine McCann's parents

slinxy said:
I work with someone that knows someone who lives near to the parents; I won't say how near as I don't want to start any neighborhood wars and what they said about them can't be said in public but it reinforces the point of view of the many on here, even before Madeleine went missing.

There's always somebody who knows somebody etc etc.. that supposedly knows them.
However, does this person know the McCanns personally? Unless they do, they can say whatever they like but, unless they have evidence to back up their statements, then it is merely gossip and should be ignored!
 
One thing that gets me are all the people saying they shouldn't be left alone I was never left alone.

All this is 100% true and with 2 children I would never do that.

However you are very nieve if you think 1000's of people don't do this. It happens all the time as people think it won't happen to me or it will be fine.

From people leaving their 1 year old in the bath while they answer the door or use their phone to parents leaving kids at home (even at weekends in England) while they go on the **** it really does happen. And occasionally really bad things happen however please remember it is never the childs fault and as much as it costs or needs that money should always be available to find out what happend.

Keith Bennett's mum is still looking for him after 45 years and has never moved on from his death or what occurred around it, if the Mcann's didn't do it it is more than likely they never move on either.

To the bolded parts, my questions are, why, and so?

Why? why should we spend as much as it costs, firstly, it could cost 100's of millions, and get no answer, why can't we spend 700trillion and find a cure to cancer, and BO, and create our own rain clouds and tornado stopping devices........ because there is no limitless source of money in the world. Maybe we spend £60 more on a bum to walk through Bosnia and he finds her, maybe we fund the SAS to search for 45 years at the cost of 500million and they never find her.

Theres simply no reason to suggest we should always make the money available no matter the cost. Its an easy thing to SAY without thinking, but logically it is quite literally impossible to provide it. She could have been dead for 4 years now, or being abused all day long, or completely happy witha new family, I hope to christ its not the middle one, but money won't magically find her.

There are kids who get beaten to death in the UK by abusive families, every penny spent on Maddie has a much higher probability of having a good outcome spent on child protection in the UK, so why should we automatically spend the money on looking for Maddie, with entirely no leads, than child protection here?

As for them never getting over it, so, calous, not really. LIfe is tough, people lose children, and parents, and siblings, and get cancer, and get abused, and get bullied, its life, life is horrible a lot of the time, and we all die, we all have things to get over, throwing away money recklessly on a search with no leads won't help them get over whatever happened.

Even if they did kill her, they likely won't get over that either, its irrelevant.

Portuguese police and locals believe that they prepared their own daughters kidnapping, actually, they sold her to some Arabs or something.

Now you can believe whatever you want here but why would they lie?

Don't think they sold her to Arabs. If they had and there was a large amount of money dipositied in there bank from the mid east it would have been picked up by now.

I think they killed her accidently and covered it up.

Interesting that not once have I seen Kate cry on TV about her daughter going missing. Usualy when I child goes missing and you see the mother making an appeal she's crying her eyes out.
 
The police love it when publicity is sought by the likes of the McCanns. There is an increased likelyhood of mistakes being made and the mask slipping.

So true. Apparantly the police love putting family members on tv for appeals so they can judge how they behave.

Statistics are against the McCanns I'm afraid with 99.9% of all child abductions been carried out by a family member or somebody they know closely.

Also, I still say it's quite telling that it's the "child homicide" specialist branch of the Met which has been allocated to review the case.

Surely the Met must have child abductions or missing person divisions? If so, why give it to the murder team?

Makes the massive assumption that Maddie is dead and they are just trying to find the killer(s) now?

Or course if the Met has no other team but child homicide and no team which specialises in abduction/missing persons then I take that back.

There was a program on TV last night about how criminal psychologist examines their behaviour. For example, if they talk in past tense about something that has only just happened, grieving partners would not be at a stage to come to terms with their loved ones gone. I cant really explain it well but it was a good program :)

Its how Ian Huntly was found out too.

Why would they? Police investigations are funded by the taxpayer. You don't pay to have your case investigated.

Leicestershire Police have already investigate the case though.

So the McCanns publicly criticise the Prime Minister and then miraculously the Home Secretary send a request to the Metropolitan Police to investigate.

It stinks to be honest.
