And they are not happy with the way the Portugese think about them.The most interesting thing to me is that Kate has a face she puts on for the cameras.

What cruel individuals you are. These people had their daughter kidnapped - and will probably never see her again.Can you even begin to imagine the pain and hurt they must have to live through every day of their lives.Have some sympathy.

Well said, facts. Judging a person at all is pointless. Judging them on the basis of how appealing they come cross on the media, or on the basis of some suspected crime, is totally flawed.

We all make mistakes in life. Most of us are fortunate that the consequences of our mistakes are not as grave as theirs.

Not sure why they were never charged for Child cruelty and neglect.

(going out on the pi$$ and leaving 3 very young children in a strange apartment alone is neglect)

Also they crave the media to much, something isnt right about them. Wouldnt suprise me if they had something to do with the dissapearance themselves.

Judging by your previous posts, you couldn't 'see through' a polished window mate. You are a total unadulterated to$$er.

Well said slarty... and facts. A little bit of compassion goes a long way. :)

has it come out how this detective thought they did it and how they got rid of the body ?

I have pointed this out on a number of occassions, but am happy to repeat it.

First; I stayed at that resort. My wife and I had our then 2 year old son with us. We went out one night without him. Before we did so, we went to reception, the same reception the McCanns would go to, and asked if they had baby sitters. They did, they had a list of recommended baby sitters. We were introduced to the woman before hand, she came and sat when we went out, and was paid £20.

£20. The service was avaialble to the McCanns, they didn't choose to use it.

Second; I am now divorced but see my son about half the time. But imagine this.

I get my lad for an evening when he is 3 years old. I wait one night for him to go to sleep, and when he drops off, go to the pub which is 100 yards down the road. I go back every 30 mins or so to check he is okay, but carry on at this all night until I am leathered.

Now then, if the court or his mother found out, I would never be able to see the lad again, and I would have no cause for complaint. If the boy had gone missing, I would have almost certainly gone to prison.

Do I have sympathy for the McCanns? I am a liberal, I have sympathy with offenders who regret their acts. But they are to blame. So I do object to the sycophantic treatment of them in the press, they don't deserve it.

Chose not to use the Childminding/ Babysitting service at their Premium Child Orienated Complex

Went out every night (I cannot say whetehr taht was 'on the p iss as I dont know) .. they had a choice and could afford p[#remium child minding services ... a choice many parents do not have

Paddy you agreed with this statement. And yet you feel perfectly able to judge me from various posts on here? Hypococritical?

I would be interested to hear which things you feel show me to be an 'complete to$$er'

As for the man above who also stayed at the resort, I fully agree with your thoughts. Facts such as the avaliability of babysitters have been rather overlooked by the media don't you think?

the mcanns are funding some very dubious people to hunt for madeleine: ex special forces intelligence gatherers who have to go and investigate all those sightings....usually in arab countries. gee, wonder if they gather extra information while they're at it.

they are part of a massive conspiracy.

They accidentally killed their own daughter.
They have influential friends in high places that looked after this unfortunate mess for them.
Anyone who has watched,listened and read about this case can see it.

Sorry, but stayed with similar aged children every year in an apartment up the road in Burgau. How many times did we go to the cafe on the ground floor in the evening without them. None. Didn't cross our minds to. Feel desperate for the poor child.
