My dear Bod [is Bod ok? The rest is too long.]
Have you never stayed in a big complex? Hotels or apartments?
Everyone to do with the place has a master .. or at least has access to a key ... and the handing out of keys to various personnel is very casual at most places.
Now what do you think about this Bod?
1) There had been a series of burglaries at OC where entrance was thru the front door. No break in .. so obviously a key was used ? Mrs Fenns flat, above 5A, was entered this way ... and that was just a few weeks before The McCanns arrived.
2) Holidaymakers, now were they on honeymoon, I forget? Anyway a holidaying couple who were renting 5A just before The Mccanns, were truly upset because the cleaning ladies/maids were just walking into the apartment without warning. Coming in thru a locked front door !
What do you think about that Bod?
I don't mind Bod ... I won't call you Sad though ( that seems a bit unkind )
Whilst cleaners/ chambermaids/maintenance staff use master keys to access rooms in their working hours, they are returned at the end of the working day ... they don't put them in their back pockets and go home with them
So keys never go missing then? Not in your perfect world? No criminal has ever simply copied a key?
And here we have an apartment block which has only a short time previously suffered a keyed illegal entry but that doesn't register with you does it?
Cleaners, managers, maintenance staff, owners of the apartments, holidaymakers. No chance there of a key being copied or lost or mislaid or deliberately witheld? Nobody would ever forget a key was in their pocket? Simply would never happen in your world would it?
And Mrs Fenn must have just have imagined someone entering her apartment? Could that have been a master key to that block the person who she imagined and reported to the authorities used?
Of course I am just using common sense and a bit of logic about this but don't let that worry you.
Well if we are going down the path of logic and common sense, let's be honest here shall we ?
I have no agenda, I am not an 'anti' ... and I do not post on any of the designated boards which are entrenched in a constant state of warfare/competition
I post honestly and with a genuine desire to debate and learn more about this sad, but compelling case
When I post a thread , therefore, that questions the fact that an abductor ( an abductor who has been clever and cunning enough to leave not a single clue or lead in all these years ) would be
stupid enough to put himself in the risky position of having to hide behind a bedroom door ... when the frequent lengthy absenses of the parents meant he didn't
have to ... I do so because I genuinely find it hard to believe
Yes, you can come back with all sorts of excuses and explanations ... but if you could set aside your avowed intent to defend the McCann's stated position at every turn, for just a moment ( and apply the logic and common sense you allude to ) wouldn't you
honestly agree that the scenario simply doesn't make sense ?
