Is there more circumstantial evidence against the mccanns than there is CB

Double jeapordy

I was wondering if that "Double Jeopardy" rule applies in Germany.

[G-Unit]

So if he wasn't in prison they would have just left him wondering about ...knowing he had killed a child.

Cant, you see how absurd it is if they have proof he killed Maddie. that they haven't charged him.

How can you think that this makes any sense?

''Maybe we hope to have something by the Spring of 2021, maybe it could take longer but certainly nothing this year".

It looks like their appeal was the last throw of the dice to get the evidence they need and it has failed to appear so far.

As I recall the last throw of the dice was around 2016....I wouldnt beleive everything you read in the sun. this interview may have been weeks ago. There is a thread that runs through everything proof/strong evidence of death...which imo will prove abduction

Thread as in the line of thought, not a thread on the forum.

Good point.

Reminds me of gmcc planning concerts in advance when Maddie could have been found that day.

Then he would have cancelled it.   This has been taken out of all proportion.   Gerry was planning something,  but obviously if Madeleine was found it would be cancelled.   How easy is that to understand?

Concerts - must have missed that show!

[Mr Gray]

this is part of what sceptics seem to think is evidence against the McCanns...the fact that the dogs alerted only in 5a and not the other four apartments...but looking at the times from the files the dgs only spent 3 miniutes in three apartments...5 in  another...but 50 in 5a. Did they only alert in 5a because they spent longer and were repeatedly called back to places they originally ignored.

5A:

From 8.30pm to 9.20pm, the dogs go through.
8.20pm: The cadaver dog, "marks," the couple's wardrobe area in the bedroom.
8.22pm: The cadaver dog, "marks" an area behind the sofa in the sitting room near the window overlooking the road.
From 8.47pm to 9.20pm, the blood detecting dog goes through.
8.10 (should it be 9.10?) The dog, "marks" an area of floor behind the sofa in the sitting room, near the window overlooking the road.

5B: 9.24 to 9.27pm: The cadaver dog did not alert on anything.

5D: 9.29 to 9.34pm: The cadaver dog did not alert on anything.

5H : 9.35 to 9.38pm : The cadaver dog did not alert on anything.

4G : 9.42 to 9.45pm : The cadaver dog did not alert on anything.

The point is most parents wouldn’t even admit to themselves that they wouldn’t have found their child days, weeks or months ahead let alone organising concerts.

I think that’s what made people rather suspicious of Gerry, he appeared to like the limelight a tad too much.

Could you provide a cite (remind me) about Gerry organising concerts, please?

Fearing the media might "go off" the story at any time, the police organised a variety of headline-grabbing events - and in return, the public and the media displayed great willingness to help.

As the investigation entered its third week, the problem for the family and the police was how to keep it in the media spotlight. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/831699.stm



The McCanns received no assistance from the police to publicise Madeleine's disappearance and to seek help from the public so they had to do it themselves.

Did they do wrong?  Do you think it is inappropriate to publicise a missing child?  The questions are rhetorical ~ I already know what your answer is.

[Vertigo Swirl]

Shame on Gerry for trying to come up with innovative ways to keep his child’s disappearance high profile.  He should of course have kept his trap shut, kept his head down and hoped the whole thing blew over quickly so he and his remaining family could get on with enjoying their lives and soending all that lovely donation money on speedboats and diamond earrings.

I think it’s odd that as grieving parents they were able to contemplate that days, weeks or months ahead that they wouldn’t have their daughter back. Most parents wouldn’t be able to even go there, mentally.

Worst Case Scenario.

Sara Payne did it.

I think the lesson to be learned from these two cases is take a pro-active stance on behalf of your missing child and all too soon for Sara your murdered child ~ expect to be viciously trolled.
