Why don't people believe the Mccanns story of Abduction ?

[Lace]

The explanation was illogical.

The children were left witH people they didn't know at the creche.

They could have employed a creche worker or someone recommended from there as a babysitter.

They didn't take the children to the crèche as they said the children were in  a routine for bedtime,  taking them to the crèche they said would have upset the routine,  the noise with people coming and going would have stopped them sleeping properly.

I don't know if they could have employed one of the creche workers to baby sit,   they had their jobs there so don't know if it was possible.

or they could have stayed in their apartment like most normal parents of little  children and had a wine  together/with the tapas in their apartment    while the children slept

Of course the thought of staying in and looking after them themselves  probably never entered their heads, not once in the whole week.

Why wouldn't there be heating?   Were the McCann's having to wear layers of clothes inside 5a?   You are being pedantic now aren't you.   

All apartments especially when you pay what the McCann's did would have heating.

If I was paying a lot I would expect air conditioning for the hot months, but there wasn't any in many of the apartments. You are just assuming and can't back up your assumption that a) there was heating and b) it was turned on.

Yes they could have I agree,   I wouldn't have left my children alone.

I am assuming there was as there was no mention that it was freezing in the apartment.

Can you back up what you said that the twins would have been shivering in their cots?

Can you say that the heating was NOT turned on?

Dear oh dear! May I recommend reading the PJ Files? So useful;

we also used three babysitters, Pauline, Emma and Leanne. Emma and Leanne would look after our children in the evenings, they were all British and employees of MW.

Neither of us know about the heating. At least I admit it, you just make assumptions. Even if it existed and was turned on having an open window for 45 minutes on a cold night would have chilled the room. Small children with just a blanket to cover them would have become cold. I think the reason Gerry gave for closing the window and shutters was that the twins were in the room.

That is not an excuse for not having a babysitter.

We know the McCann's didn't have babysitters,  they give their reason why.

I don't see the point of this.

It is what they said,   no doubt they regret their decision now,  but as they say we can't put the clock back.

I thought this thread was about 'why don't people believe the McCann's story of Abduction'   we have ended up debating the McCann's leaving the children YET AGAIN.

What did you admit?    You said Matthew would have felt the wind blowing out through the door and the heard the twins teeth chattering.   

The room may have been chilled by the open window,  but you said you imagined it would be so cold the twins teeth would be chattering.

You also by what you said sound as if you are calling Matthew a liar.
