Is the disappearance of MM connected to other reported crimes on Algarve?

They shouldn't speculate on the internet or in the media. They should inform the authorities and leave it at that.

At which point this Forum would be defunct.

and what should the authorities do...investigate or ignore...you speculate on the internet quite a lot

Which authority, though?
Depending upon where the alleged sighting has been, police may not be in the least interested in pursuing it without a legal request from Portugal or UK, as these are the onlt 2 forced supposedly doing any investigation

what that means is that if maddie was still alive her abductor would have little fear of taking her out in public...apart from the very early days

[jassi]

That may well be correct, assuming that she lived beyond May 3rd 2007

The forum has plenty of evidence to discuss. There's no need for members to speculate about random photographs of children.

So long as you don't want to.

The role of the public is to report. The role of the authorities is to decide whether to act on a report.

What does “discussing the evidence” lead to?  Give us an example of evidence that has been discussed, and to what useful end?   What actually are you hoping to achieve by your daily forensic examination of the case, and to what end?

Where does discussing fantasies lead to? Nowhere imo.

Oh, so you meant the photograph wasn't a hoax? You just got all excited because it contained a child who, in your opinion, looked like Madeleine McCann? You think someone somewhere should have checked?

I do wonder what the excitment is about. what feature of MBM can be seen from this picture? none can be seen close up. The only similarities in this  picture is the clothes she is wearing. very similar to the one of MBM holding tennis balls!  OMG... NO... Just had a thought. you don't think the 'jimmy abductor blloke went back to get MBM's Clothes, and why didn't the family report this> OMG too scarie...'

I have compliled a file as I am outraged-and sent it to FBI CSI BBC and BS Inc.

What other crimes in the Algarve could be associated with MBM's disappearance? If it is the sex predator interfering with British children- then this was not brought to the attention of thepolice, and  media back home as and when it happened.

where does discussing anything here lead to...nowhere

I think knowledge has been added.

[Mr Gray]

I think knowledge has been added.

And the knowledge you think has been gained has taken us nowhere

I'm interested in correctly recording the evidence, not in getting anywhere.
