Viable options which were investigated as was appropriate at the time. How on earth the initial investigation allowed itself to become bogged down in the 'accidental death, with later hiding of the corpse' thesis is one of the mysteries of Madeleine McCann's case.
There was not one shred of evidence to support pursuing it and only bizarre, convoluted scenarios as to how Madeleine's body was dealt with had to be invented, not one of which was remotely possible to keep the fantasy alive.
All attention appears to have been concentrated on Scotland Yard finding enough evidence to justify reopening the investigation into Madeleine's disappearance.
The Policia Judiciaria team from Porto carried out their own review and concluded there was evidence ... which under the terms of the archiving document ... had to be new evidence ... to enable Madeleine's case to be reopened.
It is insulting to both law enforcement bodies for anyone to suggest they bowed to outside influences in order to reach their professional conclusions that evidence was in existence which meant the case should properly be reopened.
One of the first issues which I am sure both reviewing teams would have gone over with a fine tooth comb is the Amaral theory of accidental death.
It is instructive that both SY and the PJ have been pursuing the stranger abduction theory. Certainly tells me what they are looking for and the fact that neither is the least bit interested in 'nailing' Madeleine's parents despite knowing exactly where they are, should tell other folks something too.
You are something of a fantasist it seems.

No evidence was found for abduction, as remains the case.
Investigation of the parents was a logical step.
Accidental death has not been disproved.
Remember the dogs.
Whether you like it or not, the dogs indicated. The forensics were inconclusive.
