Why do I always get the impression that you are mocking the police when you post things like that Stephen,  it's almost as if you are glad they have found nothing.

Though you don't know what they have found do you?

For someone who says they want 'Justice' for Madeleine,   you have a very strange way of showing it.   Surely justice for Madeleine would start firstly by finding her and understanding what happened to her,  which is what SY are trying to do.

I find that first sentence truly ironic, given the history of mccann supporters attacking the PJ.

You don't appear to have grasped the truth yet, that SY haven't found anything as regards abduction.

Has it occurred to you there is nothing to find ?

In what way have I ever mocked the PJ for not finding Madeleine?

You don't know what SY have found out and that is a fact that you keep ignoring.

Of course there is something to find!!     they wouldn't be bothering to investigate otherwise would they.

Of course they would - they have been told to.  Not all crimes are solved, however much effort is put in.

How do you know there is something to find ?

What is very clear, is that they have found nothing, and no matter how much you long you stick your head in the sand, that won't change.

So if during their investigation SY decided there was no abduction - do you think they would simply keep schtum about that and carry on just 'pretending' there was an abduction because that was their remit?  What would be the point of such insanity?

Why did the remit mention abduction if other possibilities were going to be considered? Police investigations usually look at the evidence and then decide which crime or crimes had been committed, not the other way round.

So let's just not bother then.  Let's look at all crimes committed and decide in advance which ones are easier to solve and only bother with them.  Even though the disappearance of Madeleine McCann is one of the biggest mysteries in recent times, and may involve a predatory paedophile, let's not bother trying to solve it cos there's little likelihood of a result.

SY opened the case after a review,   they found many areas of investigation.   If they had not found new evidence then they wouldn't have reopened the case.

The case may not be solved,  but that doesn't mean SY haven't found anything,  just that they have yet to find proof.

Most posters do not attack the PJ as a whole  - and recognise that there are many decent hardworking policemen amongst them.     Unfortunately (for Madeleine)  there were also a couple of policemen  - not only amongst them-  but actually leading them - who ended up with criminal convictions for crimes  related to their previous 'police work'.      Are you saying we should admire and trust these two crooks who abused their power, and that they should be above criticism?

Nothing was found when Ben Needham disappeared.   According to your logic that means there was nothing to find and so Ben could not have been abducted.

There is something to find MADELEINE.

There you go again 'they have found nothing'   how on earth do you know that?   I'm not sticking my head in the sand you are.

So, is it your belief that the High Ups have instructed the Met to take part in a monumental cover up?

You didn't answer my question:

No matter what the remit was to start with  - do you think that SY would have ignored or simply turned a blind eye to anything which emerged during their investigations which pointed to something other than an abduction - on the grounds that that wasn't part of their remit?

Well, if that's what you really think.

No, it's not what I think, but it does seem to be the view of some.

What is this 'something' ?

'something' over the rainbow perhaps  ?
