Abduction is neither plausible nor logical because…

[Venturi Swirl]

We have been told today by a “most respected” (by some) member of this forum that in her opinion there is no logic to the theory that someone entered a ground floor unlocked apartment on the evening of the 3rd of May and removed a sleeping Madeleine McCann.  Why, when there have been other examples of children being removed by strangers from their beds asleep from houses both locked and unlocked, and even occupied by parents or carers, should we dismiss the idea of abduction in this case as both illogical and implausible?  What specifically can be pointed to that rules out abduction and why have professional police forces with years of experience between them failed to spot what is apparently so very evident to some members of this forum?

It has got to be The McCanns don't you see.  No other explanation will do.  Get with the programme, silly old you.

I thought you might be referring to me, but you can't be because I've seen nothing to suggest you think I'm a 'most respected member of this forum'.

Clarified the op for you.

How can we be certain Maddie was alive & sleeping inside the apartment?

We only have the McCanns word for that.

Thus, the whole abduction thesis is founded on uncertainty.

The End.

How can we be certain that Madeleine ever got to Portugal in the first place?

A Look Alike is the most popular explanation.  In fact wasn't digging up The McCanns garden in Rothely once suggested by some member of The PJ?

That doesn’t explain why the abduction theory is illogical or implausible.  Try again.

Of course it does.

If Maddie wasn't in the apartment then she couldn't possibly have been abducted from it.

Of course it does.

If Maddie wasn't in the apartment then she couldn't possibly have been abducted from it.

 

But what happened to the pretend Madeleine?  Did she just board a plane and fly off somewhere ?

She left to start a new life with better parents.

OK where was she then?

OK where was she then?

Who knows?

Only Kate & Gerry, so the whole abduction thesis is founded on an unverifiable claim.

[Venturi Swirl]

So in order for the abduction theory to be both implausible and illogical it is first necessary to believe Madeleine was never in the apartment in the first place.  And that is more logical and plausible?  Explain.

But nonetheless the thesis exists.  I take it from your replies that you don’t think it is either implausible or illogical for a theoretical child to have been abducted in the circumstances as described by the McCanns then?

If Madeleine was never in the apartment during the checks then clearly some of the McCanns friends were in on it as they had access to the apartment to do checks so could in theory have discovered Madeleine’s absence.
