A Good, Bad or Average Theory What's The Difference?

He wrote a book about them.

Or was that another big boy who did that and ran away too ???

He hardly ran away. I believe he faced them in court didn't he?

[Mr Gray]

That is your opinion, which is not shared by everyone.

It seems it shared by SY and the, PJ.
Those are the ones that matter... Internet posters on forums don't matter

[Mr Gray]

We know because the evidence supports it. The possibility that someone else saw Madeleine after her parents did is just an idea, a guess, a 'perhaps'. There is no evidence to support it, just the words of the parents.

This post is almost entirely opinion

There seems to be a hypothesis that everyone else in the chain of command was responsible for the mess made of Madeleine's case during his tenure as coordinator of the investigation.

His book dismisses that theory while promulgating his many theories when he gives the impression that he was "the man".

Are you claiming Amaral lied in his book because he didn't really have the in depth influence and knowledge he claimed.

Who was that screaming and shouting at 10pm ????  I am afraid your interpretation of the facts falls rather short of accuracy and amounts in my opinion to yet another flawed theory doing the rounds of the internet.

Who heard screaming and shouting at 10pm?

Perhaps you could start a new thread & highlight the many suspicious inconsistencies in Murats account.

No.

[Vertigo Swirl]

There are many inconsistencies from the last 3 witnesses in the hours before the disappearance and that is a red flag to any detective. I was inside no he was outside. Nonsense like that doesn't wash.

Nobody will be covering up anything or this case would have ended. They know the next move but will they take it.

They’re taking their time aren’t they?  What the hell is preventing them from monkey-catchee?

Who heard screaming and shouting at 10pm?

The Tapas group, 8 members in total.  Are they all lying in your opinion?  Are you of the opinion that there was no screaming and shouting?

Time's money and as long as they get the money, they'll take their time -

Not from the patio of 5a directed across to the Tapas Bar.....which seems odd.

That’s the most pathetic reason I’ve heard given for why the McCanns have not been arrested and charged.  If money was a motivating factor in police  investigations then no crime would ever get solved.

What could the lack of shouting from the patio possibly mean then?

Are they all telling the truth in your opinion? No one else in the Tapas complex reported screaming or shouting at 10pm.

1. Kate forgot to shout
2. Kate shouted, but quietly
3. Kate was going to shout, but thought it better to leave the two other children to their potential fate and run over to the Tapas Bar to raise the alarm.
4. Kate decided not to shout so as to not wake the other two children.
5. Kate didn't shout as she didn't want to raise the alarm at that moment for another undetermined reason.

There's a few possible answers to your intriguing question.

Why on earth do I do this anymore?
