Madeleine McCann madness continues - and leaves her parents with nothing once more!Scotland Yard detectives probing Madeleine McCann’s disappearance are saying she might have been taken by three burglars who’d been robbing apartments in the area.
Seriously? Burglars? I’m sorry, but the kind of crooks who break into holiday lets are looking for a few euros, mobiles and a bit of jewellery.
They don’t see a little girl and think, “Oh we’ll take her instead”. They’d run a mile rather than kidnap a child because they’re small-time.
And while they have contacts who can “fence” baubles and cameras, they’re unlikely to have any who can sell children.
The Met are saying they believe these burglars could have taken Maddie because the night she disappeared they were making lots of calls to each other.
Well they would if they were on the rob in an area where cops had been alerted that a little girl was missing.
And if the Met has to write “request letters” to the Portuguese police asking if they can search these men’s homes and access their bank accounts, how close are they to arresting anyone?
Four officers from Operation Grange in Portugal last week, are now back in London having made no arrests.
How devastating this must all be for Kate and Gerry McCann – another flurry of headlines, more promises of suspects and arrests... and then nothing. Again!
