So having been avowedly against censorship you are now censoring me.  OK.....!

I am against censorship of case related posts eg Pathfinder's theory that has to be hidden away.  This has nothing to do with editing and removing content that amounts to playground spats.

Is it time to get back to slagging off Kate’s book again?  Frankly I’m disgusted by the font used which I need a magnifying glass to read owing to my partial sightedness and one of the pages gave me a paper cut.  What an inconsiderate cow she is!

This is adult life for some people, they goad and seek a reply to goad again. Johnshould have put a stop to this years ago. Any post which does not add to the conversation should be removed instantly. The censorship is ugly and should be challenged.

 So thank you for trying Holly.

What positive feedback can you provide to counteract any negativity? 

I tend to flit around in a book and then read it from cover to cover which I've done with DC's but not yet KM's. 

I disagree with the chapter 'Missing, Abducted And Exploited Children: Did You Know' and other references I've read to missing children scattered throughout as I think MM's disappearance/abduction is unique and attempting to place it with other disappearances/abductions is imo unhelpful in trying to work out what happened. 

MM disappeared from a holiday apartment which was unsecured and without any sort of continuous adult supervision which makes it unique given her age.  Plus this was not a one off occurrence but happened over 5 consecutive evenings which allowed any would be abductor to gather intelligence, directly and/or indirectly from others, to abduct MM in what would have been a very low risk operation.     

I don't see how MM's disappearance can be compared with say a child who is out and about on his/her own, or with siblings/friends, at an age appropriate time who is then snatched by an opportunist from a public place?

That’s your problem.  Why shouldn’t Kate draw comparisons with similar cases?  Of course no two cases are going to be identical, but young girls have been taken from their places of residence by strangers, and trying to understand why this happens and what sort of person does it, and that it is possible to be kidnapped by a stranger and turn up alive years later is valid IMO.  What harm does it do?

Its not a problem for me at all as I am not intimately involved with MM nor am I tasked with investigating her disappearance on a paid/professional basis. 

The only case I can think of where a young girl was abducted/disappeared from a property which afforded the opportunity of making it secure is that of Alesha MacPhail.  According to the following the key was left in the front door:
