McCanns demand Leicestershire Police open their Maddie files.

[jassi]

They weren't made arguidos in the UK.

Yes, which would exclude them from any information held in UK by LP, as they weren't considered suspects in UK.

This thread refers to information held by LP, not the PJ.

[Alfred R Jones]

That was their remit. They were looking for evidence of abduction, nothing else.

Are the police stupid, in your opinion?

Correct... but as arguidos in PT, they should have been informed of any evidence against them.

If PT didn't present them with anything more than woofing dogs, then how would that substantiate Montclair's claim that they wanted to get hold of LP's files because they were "desperate" to find what may have have been held against them as opposed to trying to continue to find their missing daughter?

[jassi]

I'm assuming that they thought that LP might hold information that  had not been passed on to PJ. Otherwise, why should they try to get hold of LP information.

To try to find their missing child?

[Mr Gray]

So the idea that the McCanns asked for a SY review to get their hands on the evidence against them is daft as the Uk police  had already refused their request for access to all they evidence in the case

To try to find their missing child?

I have no idea of their true motives any more than anyone else.

[Alfred R Jones]

What seems like the most logical and plausible explanation to you? To help PIs in their investigation or so that they could see any evidence against them up front, despite the fact that they would have had a legal right to see the evidence against them, in the event they were charged?

I asked you what seems most logical and plausible.  You are reticent to reply.  I'll draw my own conclusions then.

Suit yourself. I have no intention in entering into that discussion.

Of course you don't, I fully understand.  %£&)**#

so again once the parents are ruled out...abduction is by far the most likely option

The Met. were instructed what their remit was. They didn't rule out the parents, they weren't instructed to investigate them.

Who instructs the Met who it should and shouldn't investigate?
