Is It Possible For A Non Professional Investigator To Solve The Case?

[Mr Gray]

Not as far as I know.  The reason I posted his report/theory is that he was a police officer of long experience with the MET and it is self-evident from his report that its no different from the quality of posts here.  Police officers do not possess magical powers they work systematically through information in the same way we do on the forum.  The only advantage the police have over us (and the private agencies employed by McCanns) is investigatory power eg ability to compel suspects/witnesses to attend interview and access certain databases.

And we don't know who SY have interviewed and what new information they have

[Holly Goodhead]

It is curious that you've picked that up from what Holly has written.  OK that would become very similar to my theory where I was thinking because this other holiday maker couple lose their 3 year old daughter, they take Madeleine in her place.
Which couples had a three year old?

Could a childless couple just turn up with a four year old at home?  But if the couple already had a daughter who looked a bit like Madeleine, Madeleine could just about take her place.

I wonder if Holly will expound on her theory?

All the points you raise are covered off in my theory. 

I will expound my theory when the time is right.  OG only received my email after 5pm 5 weeks ago Fri gone.  I doubt they read emails from the likes of me as and when they fall into inboxes.  It would be wrong of me to send the sort of info I have to OG only to then post it up on the internet not forgetting it would contravene forum rules if I name my suspects.  More importantly if MM is still alive it could put her life at risk. 

[Holly Goodhead]

You totally miss the point. No one has a problem with posters having theories it's whe posters want to insist their theory is what actually happened and that they have solved the case problems arise. There is not enough evidence in the public domain to prove your theory... You just don't realise its only a theory

It's related to the Dunning Kruger effect

Illusory superiority

Illusory superiority?  Its not me Davel who criticises the like of those who read The Sun or watch Loose Women.

I don't see anyone as superior or inferior.  I know I'm right as so many pieces fit together.

[Holly Goodhead]

SY started on the case around Spring 2011.  Initially 30 officers were working the case.  Its now approaching autumn 2019.   Pray tell what other organisation on the planet would take so long with so much resource to solve a relatively simple problem?

It isn't a simple case... It's a very difficult case. The PJ have also come up with zero.

And I know you are wrong... You have a theory which is possible... That's all.. Time will tell

I think SY would have 'solved' it if it had been their case. It isn't, it's a Portuguese case and SY have to convince them that their solution(s) are correct.

I wonder why he dismissed the boat theory.

I've explained why I'm right you just state I'm wrong.

Its easy for someone like me to solve the case.  Firstly I don't expend energy on getting emotional about anything and especially not angry with those who disagree with me which is just about everyone: the so-called sceptics believe I'm wrong for obvious reasons and the supporters can't comprehend how someone like me can solve it so quickly.  Secondly I have belief, confidence and faith in my own abilities.  I don't get sidetracked with all the noise: tannerman, smithman, dog alerts, bogus lcn dna, sedation, T9, Amaral etc, etc.

You think you are right... I think you are totally deluded... Lets see what SY make of your theory... Nothing as yet

I find your reasons for eliminating the obvious suspects (family and friends) inadequate. As far as I can work it out you're using their evidence as the basis of your theory. If their evidence isn't completely correct than your theory isn't correct either.

No G-Unit I have said numerous times I see T9 as unreliable witnesses so have not relied upon their testimonies at all with regard to my email to OG.

So whose do you see as reliable?

Davel I rather suspect if in the coming weeks there's some 'breaking news' about the case you will see this as a coincidence rather than anything to do with my email to Op Grange. 

[Holly Goodhead]

So whose do you see as reliable?

Most other witnesses, police officers and experts.
