The Venturi Effect and other possible solutions

[Brietta]

Theories abound, but not supported evidence imo.

There are really no theories.  There are witness statements detailing what people saw and what people did when they were there at the time in question.  I don't think it is as convoluted as you seem to think. You may not agree with previous years of postings or you may be in full agreement with some.  All opinions are represented if memory serves me well.
Do you think the Venturi Effect is a theory?

It was a windy evening we know that, so the door could have moved prior to 9.30pm as a result of entering or leaving the apartment.  Why is theory not supported by the evidence?

All that whooshing and slamming. Must have given Kate a bit of a fright. Strange then that she didn’t mention it in her first statement. In fact I think the media was the first to know.

Very short basic statement and think of how her mind must have been whirling?   

Have some compassion Faith.  I know that you ae capable of it, because you have shown it to me, for which I thank you.

This is an example of a theory; that the bedroom door moved because people entered and left the apartment.

More detail emerged in the joint statement produced between 4th and 9th May, and handed to the PJ on 10th.

She enters through the closed patio entrance, with the curtains closed. She crosses the living area, and there is no noise from the children's bedroom. She is about to leave,

Once again, silence seems to be enough for her to judge that all is OK and she can leave...but wait!

she notices the bedroom door was
open (approximately 60 degrees).
She starts to close it and it slams. Considering the patio doors had caused a draft, she checks these doors but they are closed. KM returns to the bedroom and opens the door to check the children were not disturbed by the noise.
At this point, she notices that Madeleine is missing.

Phew! thank goodness for the moving door, otherwise who knows when Madeleine's disappearance would have been noticed.

your new avatar is illegible.  You’ll need to try harder if you want people to read it / be wound up by it.

Truthful though.

I’m glad you are not disputing the nasty tone of it.  So much for your objectivity.

If all you can think of doing is to complain about my attitude feel free. I'm used to your sanctimonious attitude now. Darn useful those moving doors, weren't they?

Useful in what way?  To whom?  What are you insinuating?
