So, if you were the subject of police scrutiny and came to the stunning realisation that the police believed you were responsible for your child's disappearance and that they weren't actively seeking anyone else in connection with her disappearance, not only that were leaking details about you to the press, like your private diary perhaps, or their tinpot theories about what they thought you'd done you'd be totally cool with that I suppose?
I think we can stop with the assumption that the police were out to get the McCanns no matter what. The PJ made mistakes -yes, however, we do not know what other lines of enquiry they were following because they didn't tell us.
They and they alone have all the statements and 'access to known crims which may snitch for a few bob'. The fact the some supporters find it repulsive and intrusive and 'not bloody on old chaps' for suspecting the parents involvement, is laughable to be honest.
Some would have us believe that the McCanns were about to be tortured and framed - this is myth making and attempts to try and whip up anger ,resentment among the xenophobic s in our midst, and sympathy for those poor parents all alone searching for their daughter....yawn
