Latest news on the search for Madeleine McCann

[Estuarine]

Seemingly nice charismatic middle class professional people do commit beastly acts.

They do.

And?

I would prefer you had linked the four items together rather than highlight one in isolation. Nevertheless; I have read and inferred from this forum that there is a train of thought that says Drs McCann couldn't possibly be guilty because of their status; they must be innocent because after all this time no evidence has been found against them. The Hogg case shows it would not be wise to bet either way. Simple as that !

 when betting its best to look at all the variable..it isn't as simple as that...Margeret Hogg taunted her husband over an affair she was having...she physically attacked him..
I don't understand what your motive is to try and make a spurious link between the two cases...you have raised the hogg case several times

You often start your sentences "I don't understand" ? That is self evident really.

not at all ..its a british expression to express a degree of politeness and should not be taken literally...I have a reasonable understanding of your position but certainly not complete....
  you have said English is not your first language so that is probably why YOU don't understand

Taking the piss is about right.  A gang of burglars????   So bloody what?  Burglars DON"T abduct children!!!

I would love to know who is constantly promoting this shite so I could confront them?

What are you basing this on?

- A "gang of burglars" may be a loose association who aren't all necessarily physically present at any particular time.

- Is it mutually exclusive that a burglar could be a paedophile?

No, but there is no evidence that the perpetrator was either, or both.

Just a thought, but it's possible that the Yard are privy to information that you might not be.

I should hope they are, else they have wasted an awful lot of money.

[Carana]

Neither is there any evidence to the contrary, which is why I'm wondering what John was basing his reaction on.

No, but you could just as easily suggest it was a one-legged Chinaman with a squint, as there's no evidence to the contrary for that, either.

True, but that doesn't explain John's assertion that burglars don't abduct children.

[Carana]

Turn the argument on its head.


Are no paedophiles burglars?

[Redblossom]

True, but that doesn't explain John's assertion that burglars don't abduct children.

Do they? I know you have quoted the case of P Voysey (sp?) who abducted a young girl and that his background included burglary, but he didnt go in there to burgle did he? Ive never heard of burglars raiding a house and also abducting a child whilst they are at it!

[Wonderfulspam]

I think the work pattern of the average professional sex offending, child abducting burglar is seasonal,
When there is a shortage of stuff to nick or kids to abduct they supplement their income by busking.
