I remember some of the early stuff written about the McCanns and I found it offensive as at that stage I genuinesly believed that Madeleine had mysteriously gone missing. I thought the abduction theory relatively unlikely on the basis that stranger abduction is unusual. But I considered it a possibility.
What I found odd was their early conclusion that it was a paedophile that abducted her - I did find that odd as I would have thought that they would want to believe in a less horrible outcome.
My darkest thoughts about the whole thing revolve around selling newspapers and air time; lining lawyers pockets; lining detectives pockets (the Spanish detective company that achieved absolutely nothing and were being more than economical with the truth when they said they would have Madeleine back by Christmas.)
Even if you just focus on the McCanns choosing to hire there own firm of Spanish detectives - Metodo is it - who have been found to be....well........do your own research on them.......just that fact alone is fishy. How badly must that have hampered any proper police investigation? All those supposed sightings here, there and everywhere and all those media reports that were claiming that Madeleine was alive and well and spotted goodness knows where. That would hardly be consistent with a paedophile abduction, apart from anything else.
This has to be one of the weirdest cases ever.

I followed this case from the second it hit the T.V. sky news.
At first I was shocked a child had gone missing I thought she simply had wondered off kids do. Then I got cross when i realised just how FAR the apartment was to the tapas bar etc and even more so when the excuse came out.....it was no different then eating in our back garden blah blah and even more angry when i heard how often they left her, and even more ANGRY when i heard they left her after finding out she had cried for so long one night
.
NOT ONE statement from the parents to WARN OTHERS ON HOLIDAY about lax babysitting routines. Not one. DONT DO IT, we did it and our daughter has paid a terrible price. OUR DAUGHTER....never about their daughter.
Then it just seems to me ALL the media from the McCanns all the hiring of inept detectives who were not even experienced in child abductions etc, the stupid sightings, all of this CAUSED A HUGE PROBLEM for the POLICE.
All the nutters came out ringing phone lines, we have seen her in canada, Australia, in a car show blah blah....
It was MENTAL.
Their own MEDIA FRENZY for me was the death knell of that child IF she was taken by a pedophile, she would have been made too HOT TO HANDLE.
The ARROGANCE of the family in dealing with the PJ astounded me, belittling them...starting a terrible campaign of hatred to one man ......
IF they knew they were innocent of any crime, they should have ignored him, if you are not guilty of something move on, by pushing their hatred onto the detective Mr amaral it has stopped people from looking for her, as even on EVERY FORUM i have been on the pro McCanns are only there to promote this hatred, even spilling out onto other cases which have been long closed....
The mantra is only HATE AMARAL, hate amaral.......even KATE HERSELF who is supposed to be RC ...... jeez.
IF this case was in the UK the parents would have been in the frame from the get go, even in the STATES, or Australia.
Over 85% of children are harmed by their parents in these cases.
If the McCanns had wanted to get their daughter back they should have left it to the police.
I mean lets face it after 7 years where are we right now........NOTHING HAS CHANGED even with Scotland Yard, NOTHING.
The same appeals by the McCanns for money to help them find their daughter.....seems to be the one and only constant in this tragic case.
No I think the McCanns did far more harm then anyone single person. It became a JOKE..saturation eyes rolling not the McCanns again.............sad but true.
Even the so called tractor man people i know who have never really bothered with the case roll eyes and said oh dear they are desperate digging up dead people who cant talk....
No I fear we will never know what happened to her, only the dogs knew and no one listened....
