Mark Williams-Thomas suggests Madeleine woke, wandered and was abducted.

[G-Unit]

Mark Williams-Thomas and This Morning getting the McCann treatment. (by proxy, of course, they didn't say it...or did they?) No wonder few people poke their heads above the parapet. Why would This Morning care if they were in the McCann's good books or not? Why would anyone? What legal restrictions are stopping people from speaking openly about this case?

Kate and Gerry McCann hit out at ITV's This Morning for using Mark Williams-Thomas, now an investigative journalist, for voicing his 'astonishing new theory' about Madeleine's disappearance, a close friend said on Tuesday.

Clarence Mitchell said: 'This is pure speculation and as such Kate and Gerry will not be dignifying it with any sort comment whatsoever.'

A source close to the pair said: 'It's baffling a television programme had him on as an authority on the Madeleine case. He's re-invented himself as a criminologist but when did he become an expert on this high profile case? Never!'
The friend added: 'He said he had received a statement from the McCann's saying they were pleased there was an on-going investigation which they hoped would unearth some news but they haven't been in contact with him, neither has their spokesperson.

'It seems he was re-hashing a years-old statement that was circulated to all the media.'

The McCann source added: 'With no disrespect to this investigative reporter he is forever trying to latch himself onto the Maddie case. He's said this all before and he once stood outside Apartment 5a reporting his same old belief.

'Allowing him on This Morning to air his views won't help the show get in Kate and Gerry's good books. But they're not going to fall out with him over this. It's all based on speculation and it's a free country and they've got enough to be dealing with.'

Mr Williams-Thomas boasts he has 'far-reaching experience of working at the centre of high profile investigations.'
The self-styled commentator boasts on his website how he has 'over the last decade reported on the biggest crime stories.'

If a kid just wanders off who's at fault?

Certainly wandering off can't be the whole story.  Would Madeleine have closed the doors and gates behind her?
Would Kate have panicked a stage the abduction scene because Madeleine had wandered off?  A parent doesn't do that IMO.

In this particular case the parents are.

Who ever allowed it to.

[Robittybob1]

Who ever allowed it to.

My kids would just wander off and get lost.  They just seemed to love exploring the neighbourhood.  I never felt responsible for them getting lost.

Are they 3 years old?  Is it dark and past their bedtime?

One was about that age  (many, many years ago) It was during the daytime but they wandered back home later that day, they were lost for 4 hours or so.

We have discussed M W-T's theory and it's faults before. It's been around for years. I see his appearance as an exercise in offering an alternative to the abduction story to see what happens. After all, the media have reported 'Madeleine's abduction' for years as if it was beyond doubt.

It seems a half baked theory.

Really. Why ?

It holds more water than abduction.

We are all speculating.

As were and are the McCann's as regards abduction.

Abduction is not a fact.

We only have one person's statement to say that was so. No one else  can support that.

That is life at times.  We are alone at times, does that mean we aren't going to be believed when we report things.
I think it is right to be somewhat suspicious of all reports for there are liars, but there are those that tell the truth too.
