New German suspect in Madeleine McCann mystery disappearance.

[Robittybob1]

A lot is being made of the Germans saying murder and SY saying missing persons...I'm afraid it's nothing to do with your research and really is quite simple.
The Germans day they have enough evidence to show CB murdered MM therefore s murder enquiry.
They have refused to share this evidence with Grange or the Portuguese...they want to keep it under wraps.
As SY. have no direct evidence of death then to them it's a missing person enquiry. As I recall SY have confirmed this.

So in reality there is no disagreement between the two forces

One way of smoothing over the differences.

Not a lot, I must admit.  So were Amaral and Sofia better parents than Kate and Gerry McCann?  What price driving your daughter around when you are drunk?  What price threatening your wife.

And what price accusing The McCanns when you have no proof.

You make it sound as if children only deserve sympathy if they have parents you approve of. Surely it should be those children who need it the most?

  All the children caught up in this nightmare deserve sympathy - none of it was of their making.  But to make the point that you feel sorry for the twins because of what they are reading in the media now about Bruckner is  to completely ignore the fact that there is an absolute wealth of far more damaging material out there, ghastly accusations and vile innuendo that implicates their own parents in the death and cover-up of their own sister, online chatter which many of you sceptical types have contributed to and encouraged discussion about for years.  To suddenly start worrying about the twins because of the Bruckner connection is a bit bloody hypocritical in my view.

I have a lot of sympathy for amarals child being driven around by  a drunk.

I haven't expressed sympathy for anyone. I was commenting on others who seem to confine their sympathy to only the children of certain parents.

Impressive hyperbole by the way!

I don't see anyone confining their sympathy to children of certain parents.  And there was nothing hyperbolic about my post.  If you can't see that the online commentary against the McCanns over the last 13 years has been nothing short of disgraceful, vile and ghastly then that's not my problem, though I don't think you can realistically blame your eye condition for your inability to see it.

I could continue with this pointless arguement but I won't. It's off topic as is the whole discussion, and I have been reminded that part of a moderator's role is to keep posts on topic. To discuss sympathy, hypocracy, ghastly accusations and vile innuendo the Off Topic thread is available.

Therefore any posts after this one which don't refer to the thread title will be deleted.

OK, fair enough.

Then you don't know what I know - and that knowledge makes me think otherwise

But I could be wrong, same as you could be.

This is basically what SY said...initially as I remember they agreed with HCW but the McCanns complained there was no evidence of death...HCW refused to share it so SY said they would therefore treat it as  a missing person. im not wrong about that

The day after Madeleine went missing, the suspect got the car re-registered in Germany under someone else’s name, although it is believed the vehicle was still in Portugal.

Why would he do that?

The vehicle would still be traced back to him during any investigation. What do you think he had to gain ?

Simple..ask him..what's his explanation

What you are saying isn't strictly true...if the traffic police ran a computer check it would not come up with him as the owner ..which suggests he was trying to hide

Perhaps he thought that the car had been seen.

[Mr Gray]

if the police ran a check on the car he wouldnt come up as the owner....If the police checked for cars he owned it wouldnt be identified.

the fact is this is only  as mall point but taken to gether with others...completes the jigsaw.

automatic number plate recognition only brings up the owner...not previous owners
