You simply don't understand that stranger abduction can be both rare AND the only logical and plausible explanation. Look at the Susie Lamplugh case for example' Would you dismiss the possibility that she was abducted because it doesn't happen very often?
It only needs to happen once. But I don't think this was the first case of a child vanishing while in the Algarve nor do I think it was the first time an attempt was made to cover up.
The denials about an intruder entering properties with intent to sexually assault children was denied for years despite the police knowing about it happening.
Which makes it all the more extraordinary that Amaral chose to implicate the McCanns based on not a shred of any concrete evidence at all to support the misconception.
It is difficult to stay on topic on this thread because so much of the investigation is under secrecy of justice. Only this time round we are not being entertained by leaks.
The only information is coming from official spokespersons who obviously are not telling us what their strategy or evidence is which is exactly as it should be.
I'm a bit dismayed that in 2021 despite the evidence of our eyes to the contrary there are those who cannot shake off believing the slurs suffered by the McCanns back in 2007.
