I'm not convinced, but thank you.

It's of no importance whatsoever you aren't convinced

[Robittybob1]

Of course it's possible...but unlikely imo

Barrier said "Its possible Madeleine was not abducted by a stranger,thats a fact."
So if "not abduction by a stranger" is "unlikely" what is it you are thinking is most likely?

Surely it must be the opposite: "abduction by a stranger".   It is the use of the negative in the sentence that throws me.

If Madeleine was not abducted, she couldn't be abducted by a stranger or an aquaintance.

Read the posts again..it's woke and wandered that's very unlikely

[Robittybob1]

LOL FGS ...it doesn't mean it does neither.

Why would they tell the receptionist they were all leaving there children on there own..what could they do about it.

Apart from offering a baby sitter of course.

They could have said we don't want your booking.

Woke and wandered affects the position from where she could be abducted from.   We've been through these arguments before and you were wrong then and still are, even more so now that CB is a possible abductor IMO.

It's quite simple..I do not agree with barrier...I think stranger abduction is by far the most likely...based on the evidence

But are you still thinking the stranger had to enter the apartment to get to the child?  I keep getting the feeling you depend on the statement that "woke and wandered was unlikely".  But IMO you have never defined why it is unlikely other than that the PJ say so.

As well as the rubbishing of Brueckner's appearance even down to altering his photograph with the addition of dreadlocks.

Who altered his appearance to dreadlocks... seems it is you blaming GA.

Makes you wonder as well why medical records of maddie were not given to PJ


In an analysis of the already published portrait of the German suspect Christian Brueckner, the ex-inspector has no doubts: “it cannot be”. Gonçalo Amaral explained that the fact is that the German had short hair at the time of Maddie’s disappearance and the testimonies account for long hair.

“It’s all cheating,” stressed the ex-PJ inspector, who also hypothesized that the German police were being manipulated by the English police.

Have you forgotten Bruckner had a cache of wigs ?

[faithlilly]

Why say he was a 'scapegoat'  last year before anyone knew anything about CB?   Why did he feel he had to get in there and make his point?

Put the remark in context. Amaral was being asked to comment on headlines like the one below...last year.

[faithlilly]

Of corse its possible as all the files were not released to the public

All the files weren’t released however a list of all the files were.....and there was no mention of the type of note Kate claimed.

[Robittybob1]

Are you suggesting he could have been wearing a wig on the night?

[Brietta]

Are you suggesting he could have been wearing a wig on the night?

There is an account that on one occasion he claimed to have legged it naked from the scene of one crime.  Wigs were found in one of his residences.
Why would it be preposterous for him to use a disguise on the off chance he might be seen and identified? he is known to be a burglar.

[Mr Gray]

Some posters are making a lot about the SC statement that the McCanns havent been cleared. Thinking about it the only body who could say the McCanns are no longer persons of interest is the PJ and by doing so would have to admit what an almighty cock up the initial investigation was. Having said that P D Carmo  has said the mcCanns are not suspects so in effect has cleared them which would mean the SC were just palin wrong.

[The General]

absolutely

They're not not suspects.

[Venturi Swirl]

They're not not suspects.

They are not suspects. Period.
