what do you think the odds are of abduction in this case?

[The General]

im not ...what are the odds of the three possibiliteis..

parental involvement...1% but probbaly less
woke and wandered....a generous 20% ...given the fact the archiving report said highly unlikely...
abduction...79% by default

OK.....let's try again. VS wanted the odds of it happening AFTER it happened.

Besides, there are other possibilities.

The odds of Madeleine being abducted after she was abducted??  No, that’s not what I asked.

Yes you did, look:

After of course

We've established Gerry could have dramatically reduced those odds if he'd have locked the door as a minimum control measure. There are others that would reduce those odds down exponentially, having a much more significant impact.
The odds? Before or after?

After of course

you have to evade....so what other possibilities are there

- Decided to leave of her own volition, sick of Kate's shit.
- One of the party adopted her - parental involvement, admittedly
- Sold on the black market - also parental involvement
- She never existed
- She hid in an unknown cubby or compartment in the apartment and is still there

What reputation? My reputation was in tatters long before joining this obscure forum. A little matter of a limpet mine on the 'wrong' vessel in Aden in '93. They all look the same at night with full SCUBA on.

I mean, have they checked? For a cubby hole? Probably not. Is it a possibility, irrespective of how small? Yes.

No.. Ptsd perchance

No.. Ptsd perchance

Could be. They briefly ran out of tea at the mess at Brize Norton one morning. That was an ordeal let me tell you.

I'm sorry.. Didn't realise things could get that bad... I think we just dont realise just how tough it gets for the forces sometime... Was there any coffee for back up

Apparently there was coffee. Any port in a storm and all that, but not for me.

After of course

After “it” (the disappearance) happened, not the odds of abduction happening after the abduction.  Jesus.  What parallel universe of nonsense have I stepped into?

'It' being one of a number of potential outcomes, one of which is still abduction. You specifically said 'after'. So, if you like, after 'it'.
