Hi all. I'm in the middle of watching the Netflix series of the disappearance of Madeleine McCann.

What's your thoughts of it all from what we already know and do you have a theory for her disappearance?

They have done something to her, pair of bastards, can't wait til the day the truth comes out. Sniffer dogs don't lie.

It was interesting and very sad, so many twists and turns, I’d like to know more about the programme makers to see if it really is non biased

"They have done something to her, pair of bastards, can't wait til the day the truth comes out. Sniffer dogs don't lie. "

Yes I think that too. But you know the expression the camera never lies, but it does. It doesn't tell the full story. The blood of Madeline could of been her cutting her finger from getting in the car. A graze or anything similar. Kids scratch themselves all the time. Plus if my memory serves me right the police said they found blood in the car 25 days after Madeleine went missing. Meaning hired the car after she went missing.

Before watching this I was convinced that the parents were responsible but now not so much. I don’t think the car can be relied on as evidence. Yes they found blood but in tiny amounts and the in depth dna report was not conclusive that it was hers.

I do believe that her parents sedated her and her siblings but I feel it’s more likely that her abductor accidentally killed her rather than her parents. There were so many fuck ups by the Portuguese police that I think proving guilt of anyone, parents or unknown abductor, will be extremely difficult

I’ve read a lot of the Portuguese police files and they definitely point to it not being an abduction. The McCanns let all their friends trample all over the apartment before the police were even called. They didn’t even search for her, so many things make me question their involvement, I believe she died in the apartment, maybe a day or two earlier. It’s been an elaborate cover up. I don’t trust either of them x

The finger of suspicion points to the obvious parties, but the lack of physical evidence means you cannot apportion blame to anyone. Thus until proven guilty the parents have to be classed as innocent

Do you not think that the friends that were there would have noticed one of their children missing for a day or two???

By about halfway I was of the opinion the parents had done something. Especially after the sniffer dogs. But buy the end after hearing all the stuff about the police and other things going on in the same area. I'm back to being 50/50 about what really happened.

where did all the money go? there body language is certainly questionable and why have they never been charged with neglect at the very least leaving children whilst they go out for a meal and a drink they both deserve locking up for that alone.

For some reason they are all in on the cover up. Something happened that they all are complicit in. They’ve also told lies as well x

Totally agree with you there at the very least they should have been charged with neglect, there's definitely something odd about them.

All I will say is a shocking mistake the parents made and to be honest its no wonder they have been accused of having something to do with her disappearance and I do hope she gets found soon but sadly I doubt she will be found alive

As a parent I never left my children alone if I went out even next door let alone go out for dinner and leave my toddlers in a room on holiday out of view as professional people I'm sure they could afford a childminder for a night.

At the very least the parent should face neglect charges would our government have put in as much time and money if it was a single mother from the scheme leaving her kid alone as she went to the karaoke bar in magaluf.!!!!!!

If you watch the programme. It says there was a party of them all at the poolside and the children in their rooms. Periodically the children were checked upon. They each took turns and even the McCann's

friends went to check on the children. So wouldn't that prove Madeleine was still alive in her room and not killed days before?

Apart from the people who actually abducted her, nobody can possibly know what happened to this little girl.

The second mystery is why do so many people make up stuff and try to pretend they are so much cleverer than the police who actually have access to real information.

Conspiracy theories are just so unpleasant and no doubt do real damage. I simply don't understand the vindictiveness towards parents who have suffered in ways none of the rest of us can imagine

it was common practice in the sixties for parents to leave their children in their chalets at holiday camps while they went to the evening entertainment. There would be a red or blue coat walking round with a torch listening for crying, no such thing as DBS. "baby crying in chalet 15" was a common announcement in the ball room. Nobody vilified the parents and luckily nothing bad happened but that was more down to luck I would say

No, if you read the police files there is no 100% positive evidence that she was seen after a certain point in the holiday. I thought it was neglect at first but so much evidence that says different x

Exactly this for me too I think I was more swayed by what the UK CEOPs/Police were saying rather than all the media crap and the Portuguese Police

I've watched the first one where the McCanns friend saw a man carrying a sleeping child near the apartment when she was on her way to check on the children. I bet she can't sleep at night.

So why include it in the earlier episode? It's a bit shitty that NF are pulling in viewers with cheap tactics when at the end of it all a little girl has gone missing. Better, more appropriate things to draw viewers in with surely?

Guess its because it was one of the main lines of enquiry for a long time and the basis for a lot of the 'abduction' theories. The family brought in an FBI artist to draw the potential abductor and then released the picture to the media. At that point the Portuguese were not following up on the idea of abduction.

I think it said that the creche link was one of the things the UK Police found out when they got involved years later

If they had been a family from a council estate rather than wealthy medical professionals, they’d have had their other kids taken away from them. Leaving them unattended like that is unforgivable in my opinion!

They only read it or watch it because the media saturated newspapers and news channels with it when it happened. Hence why people are still interested now.

Or....

It wouldn't have happened if the abductor had been arrested beforehand.

Or.....

She'd have been found straight away if policing Was adequate.

Or.....

BUT.....

Assuming she was abducted, if it wasn't her it would have been another poor kid, who's a parents may or may not have been doing everything they could to look after them.

The wrong is with the person that's done wrong, not the parent's who've been wronged.... ....imho iof course...

"Why is everyone obsessed with this child in particular?

Google the stats of children that go missing every year.

Why does it appear that people only care about this one?

That's a little harsh of course people care for other missing children

Where are the Netflix dramas and media coverage about them then?

You'd have to ask the media why they don't give other cases the same attention.

because they know that people will read it or watch it if its about the McCanns

They only read it or watch it because the media saturated newspapers and news channels with it when it happened. Hence why people are still interested now. "

That's the point I'm making. The media created the audience in the first place. That's why we now have a Netflix documentary about it.

Fair enough. I see it the other way around. People are interested because the media reported about it constantly at the time and during the following years.

North of The Wall - youll need your vest

According to the documentary the McCanns made a conscious decision to go with the media blitz very soon after it happened, thinking that this would be the best way to find her.

Looks like they had second thoughts when the media turned on them, but they employed high profile media advisors for a very long time afterwards...

The guy who was the head of the US missing children organisation was praising them for doing this, saying that the cases where children were eventually found were the ones that had a very high profile because of the sustained media interest.

I guess that families that dont have the financial resources to do the same unfortunately dont get the same level of attention

"I've watched the first one where the McCanns friend saw a man carrying a sleeping child near the apartment when she was on her way to check on the children. I bet she can't sleep at night.

In one of the later episodes they concluded that it was someone taking their child home from the night creche that was available on the site, so a bit of a red herring for the investigation

So why include it in the earlier episode? It's a bit shitty that NF are pulling in viewers with cheap tactics when at the end of it all a little girl has gone missing. Better, more appropriate things to draw viewers in with surely?

They included lots of leads that led nowhere. That's the nature of an investigation.

"If they had been a family from a council estate rather than wealthy medical professionals, they’d have had their other kids taken away from them. Leaving them unattended like that is unforgivable in my opinion!

lots of people say this, how do they know that would have happened?

Can't believe I'm even on this thread, it's so bloody tabloid, but yeah, the blame lies squarely with the cunt that snatched her, not the poor parents who've lost their little girl.....

But you got to look at it this way they wouldn't have lost their little girl if she was minded

Or....

It wouldn't have happened if the abductor had been arrested beforehand.

Or.....

She'd have been found straight away if policing Was adequate.

Or.....

If they'd stayed at home then it couldn't have happened

What? Is this a different McCann thread from the one posted the other day?

One thing I want to confirm is if former Labour MP Jack McCann d.1972, who was a mentor figure to Sir Cyril Smith, was Gerry McCann's grandfather or not.

The police chief who was initially chosen to head up Operation Grange has gone on the record to say the UK police aren't allowed to consider anything other than an abduction, and their hands are tied from above. This is why he voluntarily left to be replaced by Andy Redwood. I provided the link last time.

BTW it's important to say no way I wanna rag on the police, as in the regular kind you see driving the cars on roads, you guys and gals do a grand job. I mean in high up cases like this, the kind of manoeuvring (and yes I looked how to spell that and it still comes up underlined red?) that stops people doing their job properly, as confirmed by Colin Sutton (I think his name is).

I haven't got Netflix so can't see it.

Does the documentary address the Gaspar statements: Gerry's friend saying to Gerry "Would Maddie do this?" while sliding his finger in and out of his mouth suggestively while circling his nipple, to which Gerry laughed. This happened another time too.

Does it show the "make up" photo depicting Madeleine posing in blue eye shadow, lipstick, necklace and bowed hair? Could a small child really apply it all so perfectly, as Kate declared to us "Oh she raided Mummy's make up box?"

Is there any mention of how much of the Madeleine fund, which is not a charity, was used to employ top expensive lawyers like Carter Ruck to aggressively shut down anything the McCanns don't like - the opposite of most "missing" child parents who would do anything to find their child, and very much in contrast to the McCann's slogan "no stone unturned" - such as criminal profiler Pat Brown's book, suddenly removed by Amazon after they received a threatening letter from said solicitors?

I'll hazard a guess no.

"Apart from the people who actually abducted her, nobody can possibly know what happened to this little girl.

The second mystery is why do so many people make up stuff and try to pretend they are so much cleverer than the police who actually have access to real information.

Conspiracy theories are just so unpleasant and no doubt do real damage. I simply don't understand the vindictiveness towards parents who have suffered in ways none of the rest of us can imagine

yep.

They were foolish and negligent but that doesn't mean they are murderers."

I won't watch the Netflix prog for a few reasons.

1. I believe i've read and heard everything there is to read and hear about the case ( news related only - no books ... deaths and pedophilia are not my favoured form of entertainment )

2. I think that if the prog makers had new and inconclusive evidence then we would have heard it already as it would have had to have gone to the police, the press and other authorities before the 'telly'.

I agree totally

I did watch the 1st episode, then thought, how can you make a series of documentaries on a subject like this, unless you specific new evidence?

News media hasn’t reported anything, thus there is nothing to gain by watching the same facts being shown again and again!!!

A private prosection for neglect was made against them. I cant remember the exact result but it was decided that the twins wouldnt benefit by being taken away from them and put into care. The decision is always made in the child/childrens best interests.

Im sure we have all left our kids at some stage. But fortunately nothing happened to them. Sadly for the McCanns that was not the case. But to condemn and say they are guilty is wrong.

So doctors are above the law ?? I highly doubt that. They weren’t overly rich. There house was worth about half a million at the time. Hardly the elite.

There was a woman a few years ago who was a hairdresser that left her kid in an apartment in Gran Canaria to go out and get d*unk. She was found naked in a bar by the police and taken back to her room where they found the kid. She wasn’t strung up either.

"I’ve read a lot of the Portuguese police files and they definitely point to it not being an abduction. The McCanns let all their friends trample all over the apartment before the police were even called. They didn’t even search for her, so many things make me question their involvement, I believe she died in the apartment, maybe a day or two earlier. It’s been an elaborate cover up. I don’t trust either of them x

If you watch the programme. It says there was a party of them all at the poolside and the children in their rooms. Periodically the children were checked upon. They each took turns and even the McCann's

friends went to check on the children. So wouldn't that prove Madeleine was still alive in her room and not killed days before?

No, if you read the police files there is no 100% positive evidence that she was seen after a certain point in the holiday. I thought it was neglect at first but so much evidence that says different x "

There is zero evidence that says different
