You need to compare like with like....we only know about the failures in teh PJ connected to the maddie case...there could be many mnay more. In order to compare like with like you should only raise failings directly related to teh present investigation. If the PJ had tested DNA at the rape cases it may well be Maddie would not have been abducted and killed
Soz Dave, but I think you are jumping the gun.
I agree about the abduction and CB quite probably being involved …. but then, maybe not. There are Red Herrings out there IMO. As far as I have seen there is nothing to indicate that he, or someone, else has killed Madeleine.
I think that Madeleine is still alive and the master perps want it to become accepted that she is dead. CB is undoubtedly a nasty piece of work, but he talked about doing a dirty job and then having a load of money …. and he would be away for a while.
I think that CB is the Master abductors PATSY; he was easy to frame. With Madeleine globally accepted as dead the perps can relax and use her as they always planned, unimpeded. She is part of a family now, I believe, and probably much loved as their daughter, but with something in mind for later … or even nowish.
