    Now before you get all pedantic on me on the definition of intoxicated, the inference so far is that the group went out primarily to drink and get drunk.


    I didn't say they all went off and got drunk. I divided out the quantity of wine between the group. Average if you like, some could have drank more, some less or some not at all. Like me you have no idea who consumed what it how much.

    So now the restaurant was 1/2 a mile away? If your making up a load of lies then you might as well make it whole mile. Why not 2?

    Why are you so pro the parents? How many steps away do you think it was?
    I

    One act of stupidity? How many times did they leave their children alone? It was more than once .

    She wandered out herself, something happened (car accident/paedo)
    and others, on the internet, with no knowledge other than whats in the public domain and who have never met the McCanns, have decided they did nothing wrong and are great parents. Go figure.....

    The ones on the Internet weren’t taking the actual lead in the investigation into the disappeance of a 4 year old girl though.

    But I was neglectful. I didn't consider the risks and my son could've been killed.

    It was an act of bad parenting but it doesn't make me a bad parent and fortunately it doesn't define me as a parent.

    Good people make bad decisions and mistakes (except you of course)

    i wouldnt call your situation neglectfull/ more careless or blind to the dangers.

    its not like there was an open well or big hole he fel into . i presume he ran off a retaining wall that was holding back the lawn

    I don’t like vicious vindictive spiteful liars I suppose. I’m a bit odd like that.

    So every 30 minutes someone in the party walked 1 mile round journey to check the kids?

    Posted this elsewhere but will repost here. Watching Netflix here, when the cadaver dog finds the teddy in the villa they rented is starts barking. So Madeline's teddy was brought everywhere by Kate when cameras were around. On the balcony, to mass, giving a statement to the press, it even managed to meet the Pope! Yet when the cameras are away its fecked in the bottom of a dresser? Seemed strange to me.

    The plan was to eat there every night leaving the kids on the apartment and check on them on a regular basis, hence the block booking. It was one decision therefore one mistake.

    You were there with your child, bit of a pointless analogy tbh.

    Was a shambles right from the start. Blood hounds to track her should have been there within hours. Parents should have been under surveillance from day one. They were given all the time in the world to move things if they wanted.

    Yes really

    If the children were a half mile away from the parents then how loud did Kate have to shout “they’ve taken her” in order for the party at the dining table to hear her?
    She’d have needed a megaphone, no?

    It would have all happened the day before if the parents were covering up

    Yea it was a retaining wall.

    Careless or blind to the dangers could apply to the McCanns too.

      What time were they given from the time the police arrived and the hotel staff followed soon after by the press?

      I thought it was one of the girls in the apartments that heard it and not those at the table
