according to the article there had been attempted burglary the week before at an apartment where children were present...the adults were also present...don't know what time this was
Yes, would be very interesting to know the time.
However a major difference there is that the parents were present. It does look like a classic attempted burglary. Hard to imagine anyone trying to take a child from a small holiday apartment when the parents are present.
In our case, the parents would have been away from the property at the time of the so-called burglary and I think that is highly significant.
Looking at it from the point of view of an abduction scenario, it was the only time of day when the children were on their own. All the other times they were with their parents or with childcare workers.
A 'burglary' at the bizarre time of 9 - 10 o clock at night - when the children just happen to be alone. I don't think so.
