So what is the evidence for abduction?

[Mr Gray]

Sorry,but IF abduction,why does it have to have been carried out by a stranger?

who else would do it

We are in a unique position seeking to draw together the three key strands of information about her disappearance," said Redwood.

He unequivocally dismissed the conspiracy theory – promoted by the original Portuguese lead detective Goncalo Amaral – that Madeleine's parents had anything to do with her disappearance.

He said detectives believe Madeleine was abducted in "a criminal act by a stranger".

Conveniently neglecting to add the DATE of Andy's little speech, which was at the BEGINNING of Operation Grange, when officially, no one knew anything.

Cute isnt it, when LE tell you what they expect to find before they even begin.

Except,as we now know, the "abductor" theory seems to have been blown totally out of the water by the digs, no matter WHAT Andy said at the beginning.

How can you rule out Madeleine's death in the apartment ?

How can you 'believe' in abduction when there is no evidence to support it, let alone forensics ?

For the record, and as has been said before, a child being carried in someone's arms is not evidence of abduction.

Every possibility will have been looked at....I do rule out death in the apt covered up by the parents for reasons I have previously given...it is pointless going over the same ground again....maddie may have died in the apt at the hands of an intruder...SY agree with my conclusions..

As evidence for abduction...try reading the posts about the car theft where it is well explained

I.e. You don't believe it.

Now that Summers and Swan have produced their book which Amazon heralds as the most definitive account possible and which supports the parents claim of stranger abduction, a claim which I hasten to add hasn't even been made by Scotland Yard...

So what is the evidence for abduction?

So what is the evidence for abduction?

First we should decide what the possibilities are...

Based on all the information we know about the events in PdL in May 2007, stranger abduction is the only logical theory, unless you care to put forward a plausible alternative scenario, in which case do present it for us to examine!

I'm interested to know, also (but I ain't gonna buy it & I can't be bothered to read it) how the book has demonstrated that....

'speculation that the McCanns played a role in their daughter's fate, is unfounded'

Someone here must have read it by now, maybe they could fill us in with a quick summary of how it definitely wasn't the McCann's wot dunnit.

Goodness me.  A half intelligent question. 

I haven't read it, so I can't help.

No, I think it's your lot that should be posting that abduction evidence stuff, however, there doesn't appear to much, if any, getting posted at the moment.

There's a reason for that.

It's cos there ain't none.

The strongest evidence for abduction is the absense of evidence for anything else.

There is a young girl in West London who has gone missing.  Police are treating her disappearance as an abduction / murder.  There is however NO tangible evidence that she has either been abducted OR murdered, however abduction and / or murder seems to be the most logical explanation for her disappearance when looking at all the known facts.  Do our resident "sceptics" have a problem with the police's theory about this girl's fate because there is no actual physical evidence?  Surely they must, as they DO have a problem with the Met's theory about Madeleine McCann also being a case of stranger abduction and / or murder despite the lack of physical evidence.
