Holly suggested " Do any of the mods have the capability of splitting a thread?  Maybe something like the 'Role Of Armchair Detectives? " 
Some do but I prefer to start a new thread.

Who are these armchair detectives?

Only John and Admin can split Threads.

Anyone who contacts the police with their ideas - IMO
There may be other types who restrict their opinions to blogs etc.

So John and Admin are different people?  Is Admin like the Stig on Top Gear?

Well have armchair detectives ever solved or helped to solve a crime.  I'm certain they have, especially mothers of deceased children.

Perhaps you can provide examples ?

I can't remember the actual cases sorry, but when I was listening to hundreds of YouTubes about murder investigations there were some memorable cases where the mother of the deceased got involved and solved the case  IIRC.
You could imagine parents having the biggest role in helping solve these cases.  Vested interest so to speak.

In this case, it only seems to be total strangers, rather than close relatives.

Do they need to be locked up ? Where ? For what ?

Doing what?  Is there any evidence of her doing anything?
The Madeleine website,  hardly seems to be proactive in the quest.

I thought it was an odd choice of words. The Tower maybe? Gitmo? A stationery cupboard?

For being a nutcase?  Look I was just trying to do a subject line, and I know certain members here think any idea we can solve this case is just nuts.

I'm here with the intention of solving this case, but it might beat me.  How many years will it take?  I worked on a previous case for 10 years.  This one now for 3 years.

For being a nutcase ? Is that possible? How come Trump is still free then ?
