Title: Is it immoral to think Madeleine was abducted and murdered?
Post by: Venturi Swirl on August 01, 2022, 04:32:33 PM
it’s been suggested numerous times on here by sceptics that anyone who firmly believes Madeleine was abducted, abused and murdered is morally deficient or should somehow be ashamed of themselves.  Does that extend to the police forces who are investigating a stranger abduction in this case?  Are they too behaving immorally or shamefully?

Furthermore why is it morally unacceptable to hold this opinion?  Let’s explore the logic of this belief, that McCann supporters who believe Madeleine was abducted and murdered are morally deficient and should be ashamed of holding this opinion.

In Darwin’s day, he was denounced as immoral and Unchristian for holding the opinion that man is descended from apes.  People like Tony Bennett still to this day revile and reject his Theory of Evolution as immoral and unproven.  I think it’s bizarre, twisted logic based on the denouncers’ faith - only in this case it’s faith not in GOD but  in DOG(s)

Well, there's no evidence to support your disgusting fantasy really is there, other than some rather tenuous rubbish Brueckner spoke about in web chat.

Well, there's no evidence to support the idea, but if you're happy to have spent the last 15 years fantasising about paedophiles based on nothing at all that's your choice I suppose.

Also, does refusing to accept the likelihood that Madeleine was abducted and murdered have any bearing on what actually did happen to her? There does seem to me some sort of bizarre belief that if you refuse to believe such a scenario could possibly have happened then it can’t possibly have happened.  Conversely there appears to be a belief that if you say you think Madeleine was abducted and murdered by CB that it is somehow within your capability to choose what happened to her, that this is the fate you actively chose and wished for her.  Where is the sense in this grotesque thinking?

Well, hoping she's alive makes no difference to anything either, yet the McCanns still do, in the face of irrefutable evidence she's dead.

So no one’s interested in defending the idea that it is immoral to hold the opinion that Madeleine was abducted and murdered or explaining why it is that theose who hold such an opinion have lost their moral compass? 

Oh well, let’s hope it’s the last time we hear such nonsensical accusations on this forum (I know, I know, hoping is such an overrated and pointless concept, I should probably be ashamed for that as well!)

The irony of course is that those calling into question the moral compass of people who subscribe to the stranger abduction theory would have absolutely no problem with anyone claiming Madeleine was abused and murdered by her parents and their friends.  No, that would of course be quite morally acceptable to them.   *%87

Although we all have to hypothesise, i remember someone on fb group trying to show a list of doctors who had killed. Not one of them of kids but just in general lol. I thought what is this post trying to prove. Ppl will go to bear minimum of anything as speech in interviews to 'prove' guilt

Over the years there have been countless comparisons made between the McCanns and Harold Shipman, Hindley & Brady and the Wests.  so clearly there is a sceptic mindset that the McCanns are on a par with the worst serial killers of all time and apparently there is nothing immoral in holding that fantasy - that the McCanns are evil killers.  No, it's only immoral to consider that the police are on the right track investigating abduction and murder by a stranger.  Go figure!

Well, it's not impossible is it, & there's no way to rule it out entirely really unless Wolters reveals the concrete evidence. Only, that doesn't appear to be happening anytime soon. He won't even share it with the McCanns or the MET for reasons no one will suggest.

Of course the McCanns can't possibly be evil killers because they have no previous history of being evil killers #scepticlogic  Still, it's not immoral to fantasise that they are so do carry on -  remember you've only lost your moral compass if you accept that three police investigations are on the right track investigating a convicted paedo and rapist for the disappearance of Madeleine McCann.

There was a tendency at one point to use the McCann's lack of previous wrongdoing and the fact that they were doctors to suggest that they were unlikely to be involved. I think posts such as the one you mention were demonstrating that people's pasts and/or their jobs are not 'proof' of innocence. To some extent CB's past is being used by some as if it were 'proof' of guilt.

Just as the McCanns became 'poor', 'suffering' and 'doctors' to emphasise a message, so CB has become 'vile', peodophile' and 'rapist' to achieve another.

Yeah, he's not a particularly nice bloke but the evidence he's a murderer is found wanting really.
Still, if he is, at least he only abducted & murdered the one child then gave up doing it after that.

....and not only this, but if you happen to believe Brueckner innocent based on the glaring absence of credible evidence you are accused of supporting paedophiles. I don't mind playing up to that demand though, I mean, there's nothing to talk about in way of evidence Brueckner abducted Maddie so might as well do something to pass the time until Wolters wraps things up.

There's certainly a very prevalent view on this forum, particularly amongst its owner and his right hand man - that because CB has no previous history as an abductor or  killer then it means he's unlikely to have committed the crime.  You don't seem to have a problem with that argument? 

But actually, it's completely off-topic anyway, this thread is about my (and others) apparent lack of a moral compass because we share the police opinion that Madeleine was abducted by a stranger and likely murdered.  Do you think that makes us immoral?  If so, why?  Are the police immoral too for pursuing this line of investigation?  Do you think they "get off on the fantasy" that this is what happened to Madeleine, because that is what we on this forum are being accused of - is it a fair accusation in your view?

I realise there's absolutely zero chance of you posting an on topic response but I thought I'd ask anyway.

Brueckner did admit to a friend that he'd "accidentally killed" an ex-girlfriend at some time in the past.
https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/madeleine-mccann-suspect-told-friend-25459666

Without knowing who the victim was, it would appear that he is capable of killing someone, despite not having such a crime listed on his rap sheet.

Anyone is capable of killing someone.

Seems he was never charged with murder though, so maybe it was an accident, that's possible isn't it, or maybe Wolters will reopen that case when he's finished convicting Brueckner for murdering Maddie, or maybe he just hasn't murdered anyone.

You are making the assumption that this statement by ''a friend' is true.

I'd be more interested in seeing a thread listing reasons why Brueckner couldn't possibly have abducted and murdered Madeleine. There must be a great long list of sceptic's evidence which proves he didn't do it.

I don't know what I think at the moment, but I am certain sure that The McCanns didn't harm Madeleine or dispose of her body.

Is that considered by some to be immoral?  Not that this would bother me in the slightest.  My thoughts work on logic which has always been lacking in so many.

There must be some nasty hive mentality at work here.

Often there is no evidence of abduction, just a missing person. PJ could never solve the case in their own inimitable style due to lack of evidence backing the co-ordinator's hypothesis and an inability to look beyond the parents. Other options have been explored and the focus is now on a specific suspect. What evidence can you provide to show he couldn't have committed the crime?

Do you know of any evidence he ever set foot in 5a or even knew of Maddie's existence prior to or on May 3rd?

If CB knocked on the door of 5A on May 3rd after 9pm and Madeleine opened it then he wouldn't have needed to set foot in 5A to snatch her. There have been abductions where the child has been lured and walked away willingly with the perp.
CB was a methodical criminal which probably goes some way to explaining why he was never caught. Abducting a child from inside a home takes planning and waiting for the right opportunity.

You really must desist from confusing your prejudices for fact.

You have absolutely no idea what Wolters thinks.  You have absolutely no idea what evidence is held by the prosecution which justifies the prosecutors' making Brueckner the prime suspect in the murder of a child.

So in the intervening period consideration should be given by you to more frequent use of IMO when appropriate.

If CB knocked on the window and Madeleine opened the window, did he need to set foot inside 5A or could he just have lifted her out through the window after reaching in & raising the shutter? Are you using the open window as a defence now rather than part of proof of intrusion?
We have no idea how many children CB may have abused on his travels through Portugal, Spain, Italy, Romania, Switzerland etc. Without Madeleine's case, people would never have known about all the cases involving sexual predators on the Algarve in the noughties. It was reported that many of the children featured in the CSA images found on CB's devices were young & blonde, like Madeleine.

There is absolutely no way at all Maddie could have opened the window herself, that is how Kate knew Maddie was abducted.

Maybe she will explain why Wolters can't reveal the concrete evidence to the McCanns or the MET, but I won't hold my breath.

IMO I don't think Wolters can reveal the concrete evidence because he can't yet answer many of the questions which will arise from doing so. BKA know the who & maybe the where but have admitted to not knowing the when, how and why. They need to be sure they have at least 4 definitive answers imo in the absence of a body or body parts.

He doesn't need to answer anything.

The evidence speaks for itself doesn't it?

If we saw it too we'd be in no doubt, according to Wolters.

IMO I don't think Wolters can reveal the concrete evidence because he can't yet answer many of the questions which will arise from doing so. BKA know the who & maybe the where but have admitted to not knowing the when, how and why. They need to be sure they have at least 4 definitive answers imo in the absence of a body or body parts.
Surely they know the why?

He doesn't need to answer anything.

The evidence speaks for itself doesn't it?

If we saw it too we'd be in no doubt, according to Wolters.

Evidence of death is not sufficient to convict someone without other strong evidence linking them to that death.

Besides, we were talking about presenting evidence of death to her parents. They don't need to know immediately who killed her, even though they already know it was Brueckner, only evidence confirming she's definitely dead.
I can't see any good reason they couldn't be shown that evidence & neither can anyone else apparently.
Even the person who suggested the idea.

Careful, you’ll be accused of having a faulty moral compass for writing posts like that.

Researching this case and the life of Christian B has been a lesson in the different ways in which someone's moral compass can be skewed.

HCW did say they had no evidence their suspect had sexually abused Madeleine. I haven't seen him say anything to the contrary. In one of his letters to Jutta R, (German journalist) I understand CB made reference to "an injured or damaged child" but am unable to provide a precise cite to support this claim.

I can’t imagine why someone would want to abduct and murder a small child for no reason at all.  There would presumably have to be a motive and as there was never a ransom demand made I can really only think of one other motive for such a crime.  No doubt if I mention it I will be accused of having depraved fantasies and lackng in any morals so I will leave it there.

Could rather than would imo. I think it's important to remember that certain videos showing CB in incriminating circumstances + other CSA material were found by 3 of his (criminal) associates prior to Madeleine's disappearance.
If you want an obvious scapegoat for an abduction/murder, instigated by a third party, in which there's always the risk the abductor/murderer will be caught then I can't think of a more suitable candidate. Just my opinion based on what we know.

Gosh, I wish that I could have worded it like that when I was suggesting that Brueckner was a patsy/scapegoat for the perp. a couple of years ago.  No-one believed me and I said it several times.

Yeah lets wait over 12 years to incriminate a patsy. Better yet if a patsy is incriminated its done within the first year or days after. 15 years later, its called building a case in reality. Why isnt it that if law enforcement dont believe it was the parents thwy assume patsy, are they robots or somwthing or human allowed a belief system? Keep saying patsy, well u keep asking for evidence for cb, well pass me the documents and secret meeting he is a patsy 13 yeafs later lmao

It's a good point  I think you're trying to make.  Why point the finger at CB years after the event to create a patsy if no one is even looking at you in the first place?  Why bring the eyes of the authorities upon yourself if you have gotten away with committing a crime even if you are pointing the finger elsewhere?  Unless you have a pathological hatred of the "patsy" and want to make him suffer I can't really see the point.

Speaks for itself really doesn't it. Not everyone has caught on yet though. Some people still believe more evidence will emerge, pushing Wolters beyond the required point of 100% certainty, despite Brueckner's guilt being beyond question already. Anyone who saw the evidence would agree. Just not a judge though, not yet, for some reason. Maybe Wolters needs more time to build his case, the past 5 years haven't been enough already. Let's give him another 5 years before we write him off completely. Patience.

The infamous but non existent 200 cases, sy police in 17 or 21 cases the evrd dog found 5 bodies 2 of which included  2 bodies in one case. Impossible for such dogs to be involved in that many cases, something amaral again didnt care to try amd understand and people mixed it up. Evrd is their to indicate not prove unless it fonds a body.

I think it's got to the stage where we post out of interest but really don't care what others might think. If some want to regard Wolters as a fool and the mccanns as murdering shit parents..who cares . It's of no importance
It’s obvious that Madeleine’s disappearance will go down in criminal history as a case of stranger abduction, solved or unsolved we don’t know yet.  The fact is that sceptics can’t accept that the parents weren’t involved in a fake abduction and that is why they are stuck in a 2007 timewarp, clinging stubbornly to their beloved dogs and their pathetic mantras.  It’s why they have to heap ridicule on HCW and why they attempt to taunt us with their demands for evidence and assuring us facetiously that “it won’t be long now”.  They only make themselves look increasingly childish and I firmly believe that one day they will be forced to scuttle away for good when the case is finally solved.

The official view may well prevail, but the massive dissent will always be acknowledged also.

I was puzzled about the reason for Brueckner appearing on Portuguese police radar with regard to the abortive attempt to speak to him in 2007.

The solution was a simple one as a German investigative documentary reveals the allegions "A stunning revelation discovered by a German team of investigative journalists has put the prime suspect in the disappearance of Madeleine McCann in the very resort from which she disappeared.

Convicted paedophile Christian Brueckner, who has emerged as the only suspect in the 15-year-old cold case, worked as a handy man at the Ocean Club in Praia da Luz in the spring of 2007, according to the German documentary New Leads in the Maddie Case which will air on Monday evening in Europe.

A producer on the show confirmed to The Daily Beast that they have handed over reams of investigative material to to German and Portuguese investigators that show Brueckner “repeatedly carried out repair work” in the Algarve resort and was in town when the McCanns spent their holiday there."

https://www.thedailybeast.com/christian-brueckner-madeleine-mccann-suspect-reportedly-worked-at-ocean-club-in-praia-da-luz

That signifies a colossal gap in police procedures at the time.

Bad and bad enough but not surpassing the consequence of the rest of the inept handling of the case resulting in "McCann’s parents were initially suspected by Portuguese authorities, which many believe led to the real perpetrator’s escape."  Which undoubtedly must remain as the truly disturbing result of the advocacy prevalent at the time which wasted time and effort ~ fiercely promulgated over the fifteen+ intervening years by sceptics.
No wonder you think they won't let go of that - I don't think they will either.  It won't be possible for them to accept the result of due process concerning Brueckner because to do so would require acceptance that you have been WRONG and true sceptics just won't countenance that.

The tragedy is that back in 2007 Brueckner was there for the taking. 

Madeleine might well have been returned to her family and "the great detective" could have emerged not only with his reputation intact but enhanced.

Instead he chose the wrong path which his followers have blindly followed sans rhyme or reason and I think they will continue with that.  I'm sure they will reconcile Amaral's PR blunders at the beginning of the new belief system with whatever has worked for them in the past.  So sad!

Wolters has concrete evidence.
There's even a link between the Behan rape case & Maddie.

IMO you're living in cloud cuckoo land if you seriously believe there is "massive dissent".  Define "massive" - are we talking millions of active dissenters here?  In reality all that is left are a few dozen, possibly as many as a couple of hundred regular "dissenters", 99.99% of the world's population either accept that Madeleine was likely abducted, or have no opinion on it or have never heard of Madeleine McCann.   So, carry on "dissenting" you and your little cabal of dissenters, it won't make the blindest bit of difference in the grand scheme of things.

I don't have a cabal, but I think the word describes certain McCann supporters quite accurately. Compiling dossiers of those they accused of some kind of wrongdoing was, imo, a step too far; from interest to obsession.

Researching this case and the life of Christian B has been a lesson in the different ways in which someone's moral compass can be skewed.

“All things are subject to interpretation. Whichever interpretation prevails at a given time is a function of power and not truth.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche

Btw;

“All things are subject to interpretation; whichever interpretation prevails at a given time is a function of power and not the truth.” Did Nietzsche really say this? Not quite. Popular culture has slightly misquoted. Instead, the philosopher said:

Whether you like it or not you are part of a "massive" lol cabal of dissenters.  We're talking dissenters who have taken obsession to a whole other level, making their dissent their life's work for the last 15 years, including dedicated websites, facebook pages, podcasts, youtube channels etc.  So a small handful of supporters compiled a dossier about these bizarre dissenters - well they should have been flattered at the attention IMO, to have their dissent recorded for posterity, instead they seemed a bit upset by it - I wonder why....?

It looks like it isn't what happened? It most definitely didn't, according to you & Wolters.

She was definitely abducted & murdered, by CB. Neither of you can prove it, that's all.

Not today anyway, but let's check back again tomorrow & see how you both are getting on then. Maybe we'll have something to talk about then.

You feel goaded because he asked if Brueckner was in court yet?

How is that goading?

It is the repetition, ad finitum, that is goading AS WELL YOU KNOW

and that's why as a WUM you keep doing it.



John, why are WIND UP MERCHANTS allowed on this forum?   Time to put a stop to it, please.  It is counterproductive to the forum.

John, why are WIND UP MERCHANTS allowed on this forum?   Time to put a stop to it, please.  It is counterproductive to the forum.

For me, life is all about comedy. I enjoy the slightly comedic effect I find resulting from the repetition. For example, it's pretty obvious now Wolters hasn't really solved the case & isn't about to anytime ever, so, by repeatedly utilising the phrase 'it shouldn't be much longer now' this serves to highlight the futility of that expectation being held. Mocking the, two year long now, anticipation held by those who believe Brueckner will at some point be charged. But, perhaps I'm wrong & Wolters really does serve CB his charge sheet tomorrow, I'll look a bit silly then, but Wolters can't see that happening.

Alternatively, one could try doing this same gag in reverse, referring to a sceptics expectation the McCanns will ever face charges. But, since the McCanns aren't even suspects, the 3 investigative forces aren't conducting a very serious investigation into them & a prosecutor hasn't forcefully declared he has concrete evidence against them (which might lead one to genuinely anticipate charges are imminent) that gag wouldn't really work.

So yeah, thank Wolters really. If he hadn't come storming out the traps the way he did, exaggerating the strength of his evidence & people hadn't been convinced by his claim (note: not Brueckner himself, & he of all people is in the best position to know if he murdered Maddie or not, the McCanns & the MET aren't convinced either) this opportunity to lark about would never have presented itself.

What Wolters faithful need to ask themselves is....
Why hasn't Wolters shared this concrete evidence with the McCanns?
They of all people have the most right to know if there's firm evidence of their daughters fate.
The answer to this has been it could damage the case, but no one can explain exactly how it could.

Why hasn't Wolters shared the concrete evidence with the MET?
If the answer to this is the same as before, explain how?

Why was Wolters even trying to sniff out Brueckner's location between 9pm & 10pm on May 3rd if he already has concrete evidence he murdered Maddie anyway? Abduction is a given, isn't it?
Brueckner couldn't possibly have an alibi, so why would Wolters even need to check it out?

I dunno man, like, when you really think about it, maybe Wolters doesn't really have concrete evidence after all, seems possible doesn't it. But alright, point taken, I promise I won't repeat the phrase it shouldn't be much longer now anymore & we can all just sit & wait patiently & peacefully until Wolters reveals the concrete evidence.

Barrier was the most recent, don’t pretend you didn’t see it.  But also in the past Spam and Faithlilly, how many names do you need?  Most of Spam’s inflammatory posts get deleted but I’m sure if you look hard enough you’ll find examples of Faith accusing me and others of wanting Madeleine to be abused and murdered.

Imo it's all a storm in a teacup. Some people get accused of supporting a rapist and paedophile and others get accused of wanting Madeleine to have been abducted, abused and murdered. It all seems like the normal repartee enacted on here to me. I think everyone should just move on.

Anyway, what are we going to argue about today?

Any suggestions anyone, while we wait for developments in the case, as if there really might be some?

There's an information vacuum, we've done CB to death now, so we should probably all go tend our gardens for the rest of the summer until any developments. The next development is likely to be Brueckner being charged with rape, exposure & molestations, but even Wolters himself can't see anything coming in the Maddie case.

Every point you raised is easily answered and has been answered before. ....why bother answering again when you didn't accept it the first time.
I'll give you one example..the alibi.

In the German system the prosecutor has to look for evidence that could clear the accused..not just evidence to prosecute. Thsts a simple factual explanation...do you accept that

Any system investigates the defences.

Brueckner doesn't have an alibi, apparently, SY have firm evidence Maddie was taken in a criminal act by a stranger. Bit strange that evidence didn't lead them to the abductor really.

When did you answer the question about how revealing the concrete evidence to the McCanns could harm the case against CB?

I still never got Wolters quote out of you for that one.

The a German system puts a specific obligation on the prosecutor to look for evidence of innocence...you need to accept that factual point. Wolters explained why he is keeping evidence back. His explanation made perfect sense

He said he didn't want a witnesses testimony to be able to be challenged as being affected by something they had read in the press.

That's two of your points I've answered but it's pointless because you don't accept either

So Wolters believes the McCanns can't be trusted to keep the concrete evidence confidential?

Hang on, it's not the same.  Some people on this forum DO support a rapist and paedophile.  They certainly have sympathy for his current plight and believe his human rights have been violated, a courtesy the same people have never exteneded to the McCanns.  It is not acceptable however IMO to accuse people of lacking a moral compass because they accept the police's line of investigation.  That is a personal attack which is not permitted on this forum, but now according to you it's "normal repartee". Right, so is it therefore acceptable for me to tell you that you lack a moral compass for any moral misjudgements I perceive you to have committed?  No, you'd accuse me of "abusing" you, right?

No, I'm arguing about abusive posts, something which you claim to be against but clearly don't mind when it's me or other McCann supporters on the receiving end.  Is it acceptable to say I lack a moral compass because I think Madeleine was abducted and murdered?  A tenner says I don't get a simple yes or no reply from you on this matter.
^^^I claim my tenner btw

Wums add to the entertainment in my opinion.

I find they seldom add anything to any fora with the exception of disrepute.

Where do I stand when I continue to hope that Madeleine isn't dead?

One step away from enormous disappointment, I would say.

Don't be silly.  Madeleine isn't my child.  From where do you get this emotional rubbish?

You mean that you won't feel disappointment when all your hope comes  to nothing ?

You really don't understand Hope, do you.  It is all academic to me.  If Madeleine is dead then she has been dead for a very long time.

That which has always disturbed me is the nastiness.  But then that has been going on since The Village Pump.  Some people, sadly, are born nasty.  And this will go on.  There is nothing much to be done about it.  It's Genetic.

Nope, I see it as a futile gesture and not worthy of bothering with as it achieves nothing

Then don't bother with it.  It isn't difficult.

But what is it that you hope to achieve?

So you don't think it's double standards to complain of abuse you claim you have received whilst simultaneously having no problem when I am being accused of having no moral compass?  That's an interesting position for you to hold don't you think?

I don't start new topics dedicating to complaining about others. Isn't that a bit OTT?

Obviously not, or it wouldn't have been approved.  In any case this thread was started to explore the reasons why people think that there is something morally wrong with accepting the direction of the current police investigation which is a topic of discussion we've not really explored on this forum before and makes a change from arguing about the usual rubbish don't you think?

I don't hope to achieve anything. That's the point.

And nor do I.  My hope is an entirely different thing which you appear to know nothing about.

I'd like to know as much as you. Sort of.
