Madeleine McCann

Do i think the parents are guilty of murder, no i don't. I just think they're guilty of being shit parents, unfortunately it's Maddie that has paid the price for that.

The public are interested because it’s a huge mystery and until a body or Madeleine herself turns up it will remain so.
The parents want the press to report any developments so we keep our eyes peeled for something that might help solve that huge mystery a little thing could be very valuable or a clue.

I think part of the issue here is the McCanns themselves.

Neither of them are likeable. They are both cold characters, especially him. No chance of me being part of the tapas nine if I’d met them on holiday, as I wouldn’t waste any of my holiday in the company of people that left me cold. There is definitely something off with both of them, but that doesn’t make them murderers.

I think this definitely plays in people’s minds, because they don’t invite empathy as much as other parents would in the same circumstances.

It’s not a criticism, as I’m guilty of it myself to some extent.

But I do think they’ve suffered enough.

Well, obviously. But some people (including on here) want the McCanns to explain how "somebody's blood" got in their hire car. A car they hired weeks after she disappeared and one that has likely had hundreds of people travel in it. How are they possibly supposed to answer that question? I'd imagine most cars have minute traces of blood in them, so "somebody's blood" isn't really very helpful.

who the media who keep reporting on it every time there is a bit of a search?
thousands of missing people as you know
why them?

Thousands of people missing - but I doubt there are many (if any) other instances of a little girl being snatched from a hotel room while on holiday with her family and never seen again.

You then add in the mystery of whoever did this has not been brought to justice years later.

It’s got media attention because it’s a very rare and extremely tragic incident.

Not sure it has been posted yet but a letter emerged from CB.

To me it seems as if he's gloating:

"Is there DNA evidence of me at the crime scene? Are there DNA traces of the injured party in my vehicle?

"Are there other traces/DNA carriers of the injured party in my possession? Photos?View attachment 159645

Handwriting is creepily beautiful. Not what you’d expect from such a depraved mind.

There was also a big political side to it as well.
Gordon Brown turning up in Portugal a few days after the disappearance was really unusual, especially as it should of fallen under the remit of the foreign office (which i think was Milliband at that time).

Interestingly, the first FO liaison allocated to the McCanns, warned the Government regarding them, along the lines of 'be careful of hitching your horse to this carriage' as there was a lot of inconsistancies and holes in their version of events.
After Brown got involved she was swiftly moved on, off the McCann case.

Brown’s advisors will have told him to go because it was so newsworthy.

I think that’s where their social standing really helped. The way they promoted the cause was skilled and purposeful. They are both fairly articulate and were well resourced enough to employ PR people from the outset. And certainly odd behaviour for two people who are directly responsible for her death it deserves saying.

I have previously wondered if she walked out onto the road and was subject to a hit and run, with her body being disposed as part of that. Think that’s got to be possible, surely.

I think the McCanns had links to Brown directly, or indirectly via another cabinet minister.

Madeleine walking out onto the road is a distinct possibilty.
The patio door that was nearest to the tapas area was only lockable from the inside.
My general view is the McCanns left via this door to go for food/drinks and left it unlocked (as it was partially viewable from the tapas area).
Either Madeleine got out via it onto the road (or an abductor got in via it).

Also, the police found 2 timelines written by the tapas 7, in one of Madeleines colouring books. I believe it was done to cover up that no-one had checked up on the kids since they left apartment at the beginning of the night.

If true, perfectly encapsulates chaos theory. If someone had seen the incident then I expect none of us would have heard of any of these people, or they’d at least be long forgotten.

The amount of coverage this terrible incident has generated is actually incredible. Even now, nearly two decades later.
