To begin with Red, I do not believe that JT would have removed ANY child belonging to someone else from their bed and taken them back to her apartment unless she was able to simultaneously let the parents know what she had done.
So according to you when Kate found Madeleine missing and the windows open, she should have thought that Jayne Tanner had heard Madeleine crying and had left her own apartment, walked across the carpark, rounded the corner and walked down to the side gate - and THEN instead of making a quick 20 second dash to the Restaurant to tell Kate her daughter was crying, she decided to go through the gate, up the steps, and enter the apartment.
Then having opened the window she left the twins to the mercy of the elements for some reason, and then walked/carried Madeleine back up the road, round the corner, across the car park back to her own apartment, knowing full well that she could not let her parents know what she had done, and also knowing that one of them was shortly going to make a check and find their daughter missing and the window open, but apparently should not have been at all alarmed by that discovery - but should have realised that Madeleine was probably with Jayne.
With respect Red - I think you might need to rethink that theory.
It wasnt a theory, or a belief, it was a random idea of what may have happened for any reason(perhaps Madeleine was cryng because it was too hot or too dark so window was opened), an idea which may have crossed KMs mind instead of *instantly knowing* she was abducted. And btw Jane Tanner *may have done this* very near to 10pm or around 9.40 when she was on her way back, though I agree she would have called soon either way,and no, she wouldnt have had to go all around the block, it would only have taken her a minute to go out of her own patio doors, down the alley to two flats. I tend to agree JT wouldnt have done this, but it remains a possibility.The pertinent fact remains, that KM *knew* Madeleine was snatched but *left* her other kids, bizarre at best, instead of crying out for help from where she stood, which would have been heard. Do Benice, tell me, how did she *know* her remaining kids would be safe from said abductor? To be OK leaving them? In fact dont bother.
Something else to thnk about: If the abductor struck at 9.10 or so and left the window and shutter open, and it was such a cold and windy night,why did neither Oldfield or Kate notice the cold in the room?
