Was stranger abduction unlikely due to the checking regime?

It seems that it might have been established that an abductor opening windows from within for no known reason seems to be part of the modus operandi.  It might be worth asking the question at some time in the future ... it is so seldom we have a masterclass in stranger abduction for reference.
Worth learning from it I think.

That is maybe what you want to have happened.

Unfortunately for you, it doesn't make it a reality.

..and 'masterclass' ?

Now that seems a rather strange word to apply.

Hmmm ... what an intemperate post.  Perhaps that is the "why" of the question you might address to yourself.

I don't see why the size of the connnurbation where the disappearance occurred has any bearing on whether or not an abduction of a child could occur from a private residence, an occurrence which involves a window being left open, do you?  Alice seems very cross about this, I wonder why...?

conurbation: An extended urban area, typically consisting of several towns merging with the suburbs of a central city.

It is what a person who has a key might do to deflect attention away from a potential key holder, which becomes a much narrower group of perpetrators.

Are they not just as likely to have opened the patio door wider - a much more likely mode of entry than a window ?

If the bungling burglar had the key to the front door they might not even be aware the patio door was unlocked all the time.  Why would he need to check the other doors if he had a key?  But definitely open a window to make it look as if that was the entry point.

That does not detract from the two questions I posed to you which you have seen fit to dodge by suggesting I lack self control or am pissed or both. I would have thought as a mod you would have known better as I believe such things are against forum rules no matter how seemingly eruditely they are put.

[stephen25000]

The fascination McCann supporters have for either an 'abduction and/or burglary' seems to have no bounds.

For good reason of course, since without either of those, all roads lead to the McCann's.

have you forgotten woke and wandered

Nope, because the McCann's would still bear responsibility for not taking care of their children.

Neglect, pure and simple.

As a mod, may I suggest you bring your concerns to Admin.  Thank you.

You are stll ducking the questions though.
Rest assured I do complain to Admin ....

And what might that be with checkers passing through the car park. To get caught?

Do you think there was an unbroken stream of individuals passing through the car park keeping continual eyeball contact on the McCann children's window?

The abductor in Cleveland opened windows.  He was picked up by the CCTV camera doing so.

Madeleine's bedroom window was open; no-one in the apartment legitimately opened it.  Just as there is no explanation for the windows in Cleveland to be opened and closed ... there is no explanation why Madeleine's window was found to be open after Madeleine was found to be gone.

Something along the lines of it being noted in retrospect that Madeleine's bedroom door was positioned differently between checks, despite no-one legitimately within the apartment moving it.

The window may indeed have been open and the door may indeed have moved, but neither are proven facts.
