Havnt seen anything recently. The whole case never sat very comfortably with me. If it is all as tbe parents say its terrible, but still tbe parents have to take a massive amount of critism. Unfortunately i have never been able to take to the parents with their attitude of blaming everyone else and the way they court publicity is horrible. Personally deeply deeply suspicious that they are more involved than they admit to.

I have never seen all the case papers, the police reports and the evidence.

so, I never add to the conspiracy theories.

They were fucking stupid to leave the child, but I hope they do get the news one day they seek. The torment everyday must be unbearable.

as it is for all families missing a loved one.

Maybe I'm being overly protective but I think it's mindboggling insensitive to speculate conspiracy theories about the loss of a child in the name of creating media driven sensationalism....

Who made the documentaries and what we're their sources? What evidence did they give to substantiate whatever claims they made.

If our daughter went missing I would court as much publicity as possible until the day I died and I wouldn't give two hoots if anybody liked me or not.

I havent seen that documentry (when was it on and what channel, would like to see if i can get it on catch up) but i have read the book that kate did. I have to say from reading that my stance changed. I had always thought they were involved and or at fault. Reading that changed my mind.

Also the big thing about how a parent could leave children alone. Reading that and seeing the distsnce and the checks that were made also changed my mind.

As i said tho i would like to see the documentary what was it on?

Unfortunately there have been a large number of cases where the so called grieving parent or relative has been the offender in the case, and they have invariably sought and manipulated the media. One has to be sceptical in all these cases now.

I could be wrong but I thought that the McCann family were not suspects.

I don't think she is alive but that's just me...there are many theory around her disappearance..I know they did a video using dogs and thry sniffed out blood etc..who knows what happened to that little girl...I do believe that the parents were idiots but they have to live with that for the rest of their life.

Doubt they got in trouble for child neglect or had their other kids taken away to protect them from neglect either.

Tbh they either desperately want to find their child (who wouldn't) or they're fucked in the head and trying to prove their innocence knowing where she really is. Don't really give a shit myself either way. They're nothing to do with me.

I would never leave a load of babies alone in a apartment by themselves, fucking over-selfish idiots they are.

They did have some idea where to look for bin laden, unfortunately no one knows if this poor little girl is alive or not, in Europe, Africa, Far East or even the Middle East!

Leaving young children alone is not acceptable on any level in my opinion. Checks or no checks.. The fact they did this in an apartment in a foreign country astounds me?!

I just hope people have learned from this awful tragedy.

I dont believe for 1 second the parents DID leave her.

I think something happened either deliberate or otherwise and the girl is dead.

They strike me as 2 people who have come up with a story and thought "right we've GOT to stick to it".

Everytime I see them in the media I smell such Bull shit.

They always seem too calm to me. A bit too compliant.

They both look like they know exactly what's happened.

But that's just my opinion.

I do hope we aren't going to see loads of posts from people using YouTube videos and media reports as evidence that they know more about what went on than the police. If it is a conspiracy just how many people would need to be involved in it and would that be possible without one of them wanting to make a fortune by selling their story to one of these many documentary makers?

I've watched a few out of curiosity but I wouldn't make a judgement from a you tube video the same as all the 9/11 stuff.

Got to say that thought had crossed my mind.. They appear to be responsible parents - not the type to leave their children alone..Did some awful accident happen, they panicked and came up with a plan to cover it up as to not go to prison for their other children sake?

Who knows - either way, the poor girl has gone and they have to live with that loss and guilt for the rest of their lives..

They don't appear to be horrible people to me. Just people who made some horribly wrong choices. Choices they now got to live with..

I know that the circumstances are different but it appears tbat people havnt learnt, dont know the full details but letting a 7year old ski down the Alps on his own didnt seem to be the wisest of decisions, well it has been proved now to be a fatal decision.

They were not bad people. They are not neglectful parents. They are good parents.

IF they did leave her as they say they did, then they made ONE hell of a stupid mistake in not having the foresight to realise a pedophile would be watching.

It amazed me the amount of misdirected blame that victims often fall foul of which doesn't help solve a case at all. In fact it muddies waters.

Look for the killer or killers. It may be them who knows? but FFS can we stop with the moralising and oooooooooo ahhhhhhhhhh ing about who would and who wouldn't leave a child alone. It doesn't solve anything.

I disagree i think that its a valid point, they are articulate and have managed to dodge taking any responsibility for the circumstances. At best they were careless and selfish, putting their own enjoyment for the night above the health and safety of all their young children.

They've been "slaughtered" by the press and public opinion far more in my opinion than they would have been were they salt of the earth working class types.

People who suggest they should have had their other children taken off them and the reason that they haven't is because they're middle class should probably find out more about the circumstances in which social services actually remove children from their families.

They take them when there's a danger to the child. This can be because of neglect or abuse. They try to keep them within the family, rather than adopt them out. Might have been arranged privately for other family members to be with the kids at all times, without the need for court. Seen that happen to a lot of people, they stay with their kids but also another adult is responsible for the kids welfare.

I think Maddie is dead, but I've no real idea if the parents were more involved than they portray. I stand by innocent until proven guilty though.

There are many other child disappearance/murder cases that have many mysteries surrounding them. Two off the top of my head - Azaria Chamberlain in Australia in 1980. At one stage her mother was put on trial , but in the end they concluded a dingo did kill her.

Ben Needham - disappeared in 1991 from Kos . Still not found. To me very similar to Maddie - yet his family don't seem to get ripped to pieces like the McCann's do.

I just hope , Maddie didn't or isn't suffering, wherever she is.

now, you have clearly researched it...

what are the key facts that have led you to your conclusion that they know more then the say.

If i'd asked for it for another reason then no i wouldn't, as that's fraud. Obviously i'd do what normal people do and ive within my means, even if that meant moving or renting.

"I think Maddie is dead, but I've no real idea if the parents were more involved than they portray. I stand by innocent until proven guilty though.

There are many other child disappearance/murder cases that have many mysteries surrounding them. Two off the top of my head - Azaria Chamberlain in Australia in 1980. At one stage her mother was put on trial , but in the end they concluded a dingo did kill her.

Ben Needham - disappeared in 1991 from Kos . Still not found. To me very similar to Maddie - yet his family don't seem to get ripped to pieces like the McCann's do.

I just hope , Maddie didn't or isn't suffering, wherever she is. "

i remenber the needham case ..i think thedifference in that is that the storys of parents n offer evidence pointed to a kiddknappin ..in the maddie case to much eviddence against parents ..so if needham parents innocent coz of evidence is in favour of kiddknappin why is it the evidence against the mcanns is not enuf ..like i say its who u kno i suppose m.n.m

"so watched a couple of documentrys on the "abduction" of maddie mcann ..the amount of info the press left out was unbelievable .i thought it was a straight cut case but the more i looked into it the more bogus it looked ....why did this little girl get so much publicity wen kids go missin daily all round the world ??? ......anyone else seen anything on this n wud like to throw there opinions in ...m.n.m. x

Who made the documentaries and what we're their sources? What evidence did they give to substantiate whatever claims they made.

If our daughter went missing I would court as much publicity as possible until the day I died and I wouldn't give two hoots if anybody liked me or not.

Would you use the money donated to searching for her on your mortgage though..?

If I hadn't been able to work as much due to her going missing and I had two other children to look after then yes I would. "

What were they doing that precluded working to fund their other responsibilities? Most families don't have the luxury of a charitable fund to take advantage of during crisis.

That money was given in good faith by thousands of people to help find the little girl. Yet instead was spent in maintaining the quality of life the parents were used to while they chose not to go back to work.

To top it all off they were suspects themselves for a very long time..

It wasn't donated for that reason, and as such there was justified outrage at the time.

I've watched some of the 9/11 and moon landing hoax videos and read the articles.

When it's clear they aren't following the laws of physics and making it up I laugh and turn the bullshit off.

I'm not sure how much 'chose' there is about it - given the amount of damnation of them as people that there had been in the press, and some of the _iews expressed on this thread even, could they really go back to the day job?

They were suspects yes, and people knew this and chose to donate anyway so I don't really see how that's relevant. No one is or was forced to donate. I didn't, because I think it's a job for the police.

Yes they could have done all those things while searching for a missing child but it wouldn't have been easy. I find it difficult to find it ing heart to condemn them for remaining in their own home. I don't condemn that disabled chap who was mugged for using donated money to live in a better house either.

Well that's just speculation, and incorrect at that. He was a consultant working for the NHS, and went back to work in around 2008 I think. After spending over a million pounds on their living expenses.

If you are of the opinion that a charity can do with any donated money whatever they please, then we are simply of a different opinion on the matter.

I don't think they were involved by the way, other than minor neglect which unfortunately resulted in a major tragedy. Just commenting on the media shitstorm surrounding the whole thing.

I think the reply ' what utter shite' was a very succinct and accurate analysis on a lot of what is being said rather than a contribution to the discussion.

I stand by the person who said it.

You are making wild claims that have no basis in ...........well ...... anything.

I quote you....... ' They made money and surrounded themselves with very rich people with lots of power and took the country for idiots'

Please answer me these simple questions.....

1. Who were the very rich people?

2. What power did they have?

3. Why did they want to use it to cover up the disappearance of a little girl?

No question if they had been poor they would have been vilified, and rightly because what they did was despicable.

What does it for me is not that they went to that bar, they had the means and the opportunity to have them supervised and they didn't.

But that throws another twist, why? Is that the plan to be vilified as selfish parents, instead of being in prison.

Your ignoring the salient points of my argument though. They have used publicly donated money to purchase real estate off of the back of their missing daughter, rather than using their own private savings..

A lot are yes. I personally haven't actually speculated about anything though. Just recited some facts, and said i don't agree with it, and a lot of others hold the same _iew.

Everytime I see them in the media I smell such Bull shit.

They always seem too calm to me. A bit too compliant.

They both look like they know exactly what's happened.

But that's just my opinion.

It wasn't donated for that reason, and as such there was justified outrage at the time.

Did they have to pay it back? Don't see why they're above the law. nope the fund was never named or intended to help find maddie the fund was set up to fight legal cases against the mcanns ..all out there for u to reasearch m.n.m"

Not surprised they became suspects after doing that. Looks like they were benefitting financially from her going missing/possibly being dead.

Surprised they even got to keep their other kids, they're prety fucked up morally.

If the money was donated specifically to fund private investigators etc then no it shouldn't have been spent on a mortgage. It wasn't though, it was for the McCann's cause as a whole, which in my _iew includes funding them to keep doing what they were doing which was focusing on raising awareness/publicity and fighting legal cases, rather than working full time. But as I said, I chose not to donate.

Incorrect speculation? Yes, guilty as charged. As are you and everyone else on this thread because we do not know anything for sure.

Your ignoring the salient points of my argument though. They have used publicly donated money to purchase real estate off of the back of their missing daughter, rather than using their own private savings..

A lot are yes. I personally haven't actually speculated about anything though. Just recited some facts, and said i don't agree with it, and a lot of others hold the same _iew. "

How do you know they didn't use their private savings to fund some of the search? So this money was used in equivalence of that? How do you know they even had private savings?

On the topic of conspiracy theories in general, I find the people who are happier in life are those who don't go around looking for the conspiracy, the ulterior motive, the evidence that the government/the police/the Man/the CIA/Starbucks/the Illuminati (delete as appropriate) are trying to fuck them over at all times.

So that's how I choose to live.

Correct. A great mind once said , many many years ago, that ' It is not events that injure us but our opinions about those events' ...... I paraphrase but it was a long time ago

Our own perception and behaviour in light of that perception is what makes us feel good or bad about something or ourselves

If these kids are under the age of three then yes i agree with you, apart from the babysitter comment because you're getting someone else to be responsible for them for you.

People need to have some common sense really, kids can do certain things at appropriate maturity. Babies need looking after, not to the point of helicopter parent but also not to the point of being dumped in an apartment by themselves where no-one responsible can hear them.

I'd never steal from my kid to fund my lifestyle and i'd never leave any baby on it's own like they did, so no we're not all like the mcanns. I'm selfish now i can be and that's good enough for me, they should have been selfish when they could be not just because they wanted to be.

They paid a price for it, unfortunately so did an innocent child.

I was quoting things reported in the media at the time. I don't recall any lawsuits being filed for slander, so I have to believe that information to be factual.

Otherwise absolutely everything has to be considered as speculation and opinion.

Not seen these documentaries but the state is responsible for the creation of many conspiracy theories as it deflects attention or helps create ridicule, around what's important that they don't want us to understand.

There's probably nothing like this for the poor girl, but important to bear in mind when being eager to discredit others' points of _iew.

Has any parent on here ever left ur kids upstairs in bed while asleep and gone down the bottom of the garden to enjoy the last bit of sun for that day? Sat with a glass of wine talking to ur partner or a friend on the phone?

I have been to plenty of parties in a friends very large garden. Kids will be asleep upstairs while we all sit out talking and have never once thought the kids were unsafe. But i now know the distance of us being in the garden and the mcanns and other families who did the same was much further.

I think people are too quick to judge them as neglectful parents when in reality alot do the same but can somehow defend the way they do it to the way the mcanns did.

I have to say that anyone who allows a child of maddies age to go to the shops alone, parentts who go to bed before them, take a bath leaving them unattended, let them go to school on there own are in my opinion as guilty of neglect asthe Mccanns, i am amazex that anyone could think it acceptable parenting

as far as I know they paid two mortgage payments from the fund and as soon as the Portuguese named them as suspects took no more for that reason, this was decided by directors of the fund. One of the objectives of the fund (which I'm guessing was available for anyone donating to see) was to provide financial support for the family. Gerry McCann returned to work 6 months after she went missing, if my daughter went missing six months would barely be time for me to be able to function as a human being let alone as a surgeon.

You missed out the one of , leave three small children in an apartment abroad while go eat and drink every night.

I know which one I think is unacceptable. Sadly a little girl was lost for the parents being irresponsible, but it is ok as other people let children go to bed while they are downstairs.

. This is a very sad case and it is surprising that people are prepared to speculate as to what happened . Both parents were educated and intelligent and I am sure that they were very good parents . Whilst the children were left unattended during the course of the meal , they were in a holiday complex and regular checks were made. This hardly amounts to neglect . On a simplistic basis the child appears to have gone missing by abducted and it is rather offensive to even speculate that the parents were involved .

Yeah they had to make it public, it was a non-profitting business they set up and donations had to be accounted for, maybe they could claim the house as an expense if they were working from it?

Not sure why doing something suspicious, then stopping doing it when caught makes you look less suspicious.

I didn't miss it out. I was comparing other forms of children being on their own.

I don't accept that what they did was right. I don't accept it was responsible parenting.

I don't think blaming them for it helps the case any.

It's like blaming the people who are burgled for sleeping with their door unlocked. Blaming the car owners because they left their keys in an insecure place. Blaming and old woman for having a handbag on her arm. Blaming a woman for wearing a skirt and making the rapists job easy.

No one knows what happened and focussing on their 'neglect' doesn't solve anything. I said it earlier.

as far as I know they paid two mortgage payments from the fund and as soon as the Portuguese named them as suspects took no more for that reason, this was decided by directors of the fund. One of the objectives of the fund (which I'm guessing was available for anyone donating to see) was to provide financial support for the family. Gerry McCann returned to work 6 months after she went missing, if my daughter went missing six months would barely be time for me to be able to function as a human being let alone as a surgeon.

Yeah they had to make it public, it was a non-profitting business they set up and donations had to be accounted for, maybe they could claim the house as an expense if they were working from it?

Not sure why doing something suspicious, then stopping doing it when caught makes you look less suspicious. "

I don't think the McCann's administered the fund I think it was/is a team of directors. They didn't stop because they were caught they stopped because they were named suspects in the disappearance of their daughter.

There is another fund that people like Richard Branson have donated to.

PS, at Maddies age, a few of what you say is not acceptable either. I am surprised responsible parents would think so.

I thought that was the case...easier not having any self righteous folk comment because it's what they do on a regular if not daily basis but it's fine because it's them and nothing has happened yet...you should've left it on, got the popcorn out and laughed at how ridiculously right 'open minded' people 'think' they are!

I don't accept that what they did was right. I don't accept it was responsible parenting.

I don't think blaming them for it helps the case any.

It's like blaming the people who are burgled for sleeping with their door unlocked. Blaming the car owners because they left their keys in an insecure place. Blaming and old woman for having a handbag on her arm. Blaming a woman for wearing a skirt and making the rapists job easy.

Then I suppose it isn't really a great comparison.

As I pointed out above to someone else..... I didn't say of Maddie's age.

Other ages are still children and still subject to abuse, neglect and mishap.

It's an excellent comparison.

People are determined to blacken the McCanns for leaving their children. I'd say leaving them was wrong. The point im making is that everyone does it in some form every day.

Over thirty years ago. I went to Butlins with my family. I left my twin daughters asleep 'happy' in the knowledge that the baby sitting service would alert me if they heard crying.

With hindsight - I dread to think what could have happened to my girls.

If the , then unvetted, baby patrollers had been , d*unk, having sex, pedophiles, too lazy to walk around. Or even if my daughters had just got up and fallen or electrocuted themselves .... ??? it beggars belief in the light of the McCann case. It's what EVERYONE did then and many allow their children out of their sight at many times during the day.

But your comparison isn't the same as your following posts have said ie age of the child.

Your other comparisons are not the same either.

The only comparison is if when your child were small and you left them on their own while going to the pub for your tea.

I am guessing they beat themselves up every day about doing the same thing but it doesn't change facts, some parents are irresponsible and they were

If the money had been donated for that then yes i would.

If i'd asked for it for another reason then no i wouldn't, as that's fraud. Obviously i'd do what normal people do and ive within my means, even if that meant moving or renting.

It wasn't donated for that reason, and as such there was justified outrage at the time.

Did they have to pay it back? Don't see why they're above the law. nope the fund was never named or intended to help find maddie the fund was set up to fight legal cases against the mcanns ..all out there for u to reasearch m.n.m

Yeah i saw there was two funds, tbh a lot came up around the fraud and half of it was daily mail links, i refuse to click on them. Hardly saw anything i could count on as a reliable source.

"

I think thats the crux of it, some people didn't leave their children and what they did will be alien to them ( ie us as being the not leaving the kids ) and some parents ( like you) think it is ok to do.

Hence the difference in how one half of us think it is not the right thing to do and the other half defending what they did.

They obviously thought it was acceptable too

I don't know what people have said is true or even how anyone would find out, but if the money was donated to them then if people wanted them to only use it for certain things I don't know how that would be controlled.

See that's the bit that bugs me most about the vilification of the McCanns. When I saw them on TV where other people saw cold or smug or "too calm" or whatever, I saw grief etched all over their faces. Just because they weren't wriging their hands wailing and screaming somehow that makes their pain less genuine? I have never, ever seen my mother cry. Or my dad. I don't cry at much at all. I've been told I'm a cold fish. I'm not, I just don't express myself that way so I don't cry at weddings and funerals. It doesn't mean that I, or they, don't love or feel pain.

People express pain, sorrow and grief in completely different ways, and it's absolutely disgusting that the McCanns have been condemned by so many for not behaving the way most people say 'they' would if something so horrific happened to them.

I don't know. There's obviously more to the story than we know. I think some things seem suspicious but that's based on only a fraction of the information, much of which came from media sources so will have been reported for controversy rather than accuracy.

I don't watch documentaries on it, (because, again, they're all skewed for some aim or other), and I pay little attention to what's reported about it.

I'll leave it at I don't know and go back to not thinking much about it.
