    The fact the world is or isn't looking doesn't change the forensic feat the abductor managed to do by removing a child from a holiday complex not leave a shred of evidence. By the same night the worlds media was on everyone, potential abductor McCann etc, yet Nada.


    But you're only suggesting the McCann wouldn't be able to do it in those circumstances but somehow someone else would?


    then you make false claims on the thread such as Kate answering questions she was never asked.


    Why are you making false claims?


    It sounds like you just don't want it to be them rather than showing why it wasn't them...

    You are being disingenuous by saying those scenarios are the same when they absolutely aren't.
    Madeleine disappeared from that apartment with no witnesses, no sightings, nothing. There was literally no one watching at all, hence the case remains unsolved a decade later.

    Yet you are trying to compare like for like saying the McCanns would have been able to store the body for over 3 weeks, and dispose of it in their hire care using a tennis bag, while their every move was being scrutinised by both the media and two police forces?
    Which media and police force were on the scene when the abduction was actually taking place, or if it suits you better, the minutes were Madeleine disappeared?

    Kate was interviewed for 11 hours a day in the 3 days prior to being made arguido. I'm not making any false claims.
    You are the one being insincere saying the McCanns would have been able to store, hide and dispose of a body while the whole world was watching.

    New poster - I've been following the thread since it was posted, and have in the past been in the camp of giving the McCann's 'the benefit of the doubt'. :/

    However, since watching all (I got obsessed!) the YouTube interviews, I simply cannot abide these two. They are guilty as sin, and I hope it is discovered in our lifetime. I am glad people are still talking about it, and by the looks of things, most are suspicious of these two monsters. I particularly despise the smug cold bastard Gerry. I feel sorry for their young teen twins.

    I just don't understand how they can calmly hide and bury their daughter even if it was an unintentional overdose. This part makes my head spin, along with the numerous paedo connections... RIP Madeleine.

    How do you think they did it? Without catching themselves out, how do you think they managed to do that?

    It’s inaccurate that the abductor left “no evidence whatsoever”, vital evidence was probably destroyed that night by the failure to close off the crime scene, allowing some 20 people to roam through the rooms and the yard as the scene was not preserved.

    “Professor Dave Barclay, a forensic analyst, told a Channel 4 Dispatches documentary the evidence might have cleared her parents of involvement on day one.
    He said police should have been “more aggressive” in protecting the family’s holiday apartment from being contaminated. “It’s clear that the forensic examination on the first day wasn’t what we would have expected,” he said.
    “There were opportunities missed. And one of those opportunities did a great disservice to the McCanns.”
    Chris Stevens, a former detective superintendent, said after an examination of the scene that a potential abductor could have been in and out of the apartment in “less than a minute”.

    Also there were photos of officers in normal clothes without gloves, more effort could have been made for sure.

    Most of us can’t understand that. Care to give us a timeline of events to back up your theory?

    Also YouTube is FULL of conspiracy videos. I’m pretty sure there’s one at the minute saying Britney was behind 9/11.

    Prof X says Y - FACT!


    Professional dog trainer now hired by the FBI says X - BS!


    Porturguse police trying to entrap! - FACT!


    British police with holding statements from people who holiday'd with the McCanns - British Police the real heros.

    Look. I know you really really want it to have been Kate and Gerry. But really really wanting something isn’t enough. You have to back up your beliefs with facts. You can’t even provide a basic timeline.

    I don't care who did it.


    I've no interest in blaming the McCann's on something they didn't do.

    Why do you believe MM is dead?

    or

    why do you believe she was abducted?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,653 ✭✭✭✭Plumbthedepths


    Firmly believe the McCanns were involved directly or indirectly . Based on everything I have read and seen todate.The child died on the day in question or shortly thereafter. Her bones may one day be found, but those responsible are still there getting on with their lives.
    This is all the rest of you have aswell an opinion based on what is in the public domain. You are equally wrong in your assertions as you are right.

    Interesting
    Do we have photo's of Gerry with said bag and do we have evidence of him denying he had it? :confused:

    https://mmknowthetruth.blogspot.com/2017/02/hunt-for-gerrys-missing-tennis-bag.html

    Dont know anything about the website or it's accuracy but the photo looks genuine. Another forum quotes Goncalo as saying:

    The issue with the bag is the following, Gerald McCann said at one point in time that he did not have any sports bag. Mark Harrison, an English expert, who did the planning of the searches that were carried out with the CSI dogs, of the cadaver odour and blood, at the end of July, early August, puts forward that serious hypothesis - that the body was taken inside a sports bag, he speaks of a golf bag, of a sports bag – and indeed a sports bag existed. There are photographs taken inside the apartment [rented by the McCanns/5A] immediately after the disappearance, an hour later, and the sports bag is there, inside the closet and is of a darkish blue colour. Thus, those photographs exist, contrary to what anyone can say that they did not own a sports bag – the sports bag was there. A sports bag, even though there wasn't any brand like "Adidas" in the bag, but it was a bag of that kind. So, what happened to that bag, what took place next, other situations ensued relatively to another bag, something that it's not worth mentioning now here, there are people who also talk about a bag...

    Don't forget, Goncalo's version of the investigation has been ruled a faithful and accurate one by the Portugese Supreme Court.

    There was a blue sports bag, now there isnt."


    The fact that Gerry and Clarence Mitchell both deny this bag existed raises concerns for me.

    Can you point to where I said this?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 130 ✭✭loveall


    There is so much more to it and you're not even close. I'm sure some people here are already aware and are here to keep you in your thought process, but you're missing the big picture.

    Youtube is also FULL of accurate and believable videos
    I hope you are not intimating that all videos on YouTube are not to be believed?

    So you accept it then?

    I haven’t mentioned cadaver dogs at all, care to tell me where I have? Or else we can just both concede that you’ve resorted to making up stuff to suit your weak narrative

    I enjoy Mr Hall's work immensely, but it detracts from the bigger picture. Surely they'd have sued him?

    No,I'm asking do you think all videos on youtube that don't agree with your opinion are inaccurate.Thats the way it came across
    Pretty sure most intelligent people know when they see something like the Britney video you referenced that they realize its a gag and not to be taken seriously as you and I wouldn't.You referring to it has no bearing on this case.

    I didn't specifically state you did.


    It's just another bit of "evidence" the "mcann" side tend to dismiss.


    Where do you stand on it then?

    It's all there, but what you're hearing is misdirection.

    You’re struggling.

    Just admit you lied and we’ll move on.

    Bye now.

    The parents did it
    I’m referring to people here who hypothesise and speculate about a drugging/murder/cover up without any actual proof or any kind of semblance of rationality in their posts. Finger pointing and accusations are a free for all, evidence be damned.

    Most of this speculation and waffle tends to fall by the wayside when you try and get the conspiracy people to tell you what they think the timeline of events could have been, and particularly the complicated hijinks that would have had to have ensued if Madeleine's body was to be hidden from police searches, with everyone who could have been involved under almost constant scrutiny by the world’s media.

    Everything seems to hinge on the belief the child was alive the evening of the abduction. What if she had in fact died a previous day? Did anyone see her that evening? I think all the people at the bar who "checked" didn't look in the room.
