The 'Abductor' & the Sliding Door

[jassi]

Of course I dont KNOW it, but all that Authorities seem to agree that they have  nothing against Kate and Gerry ... and several others peoples statements have backed them up.  All you have is a suspicious and, if I may say it, a nasty accusing mind.

Repeatedly over 8 months, we the pros / sceptics have asked you to suggest a way that the Mccanns could have been involved ... or could have dunit.  You haven't made one sensible suggestion in all that time.

The Mccanns are innocent in the eyes of the Law and in the eyes of reasonable people, until such time as they may be shown to be otherwise. 

Imo, that is most unlikely ... especially as I believe I know who was behind the abduction.

But there is always going to be suspicion until someone else has been proved to be guilty

Thats why i dont get why an abductor would walk through streets lit up like a christmas tree.

The best way to go surely would be away from PDL with a child, not straight into it with all the cafes, etc....

It's mystifying, columbostogey, isn't it?

Much more likely she was whisked away in a car. Could have been half way towards the Spanish border before anyone had even called the police.

The Escola Primaria was lit like Christmas trees before led lights time, with candles.

I can only conclude that desperate times required desperate measures.

[Redblossom]

Don't be ridiculous! Surely reasonable people would supress that vital information for 3 years or so first? That's usually how reasonable unsuspicious people behave, isn't it?

Certain stones left unturned.....oops

That would explain Smithman's actions perfectly. But he was smart moving Madeleine away whilst everyone elsewhere were in a blind panic and busy searching. He moved her whilst the others were blind to what was actually going on. The tapas bar was the alibi - it couldn't be one of us as we were all eating at the tapas bar.

No doubt that Smithman was clever. But was that smart to do ?

He was also very lucky of course and possibly not if more genuine eye witnesses have come forward but Madeleine has never been found so he was both smart and lucky IMO.

Might have seemed the only apparent option at the time. Clearly he got lucky as Madeleine has not been found.

He didn't have much time to reflect.
He met the Smiths.. but he was lucky that they didn't report it earlier, before the focus was on Robert M.
I don't think that "Madeleine hasn't been found" was a luck part, it was a must and there was only way to achieve it.

Still lucky to have got away with it for all these years.

Luck ? A couple of hours after crossing the Smith family, Smithman knew that he was safe for good.
Then started the circus, a kind of challenge.

Justice may yet prevail.

What would he have had to have done to be so sure of his eternal safety?

Is there such a crime in the world - one that can never be discovered?

Just make sure Madeleine would never be found.
We'd have to hear what Smithman has to say before speaking of crime.
