"What is the best book to read about this case in detail?"

Just Google 'kate mccann guilty', should be enough reading there to keep you up all night.

nobody in their right minds has suggested they did it wilfully easy

what concerns a lot of people, including me,is the lack of care

people are divided on this, hence lot a lot of argument

what is this doing to their other children??????

apologies
judging them by their actions and what they are doing
I did say it was an opinion
and the forum was divided

I assume the 'laughing' icon was your own work.

to me the real issue here is that they're putting so many resources into this again when the kid's 99.9% certain to have been dead for many years. it's all money that won't be spent elsewhere, and there's very little chance it'll uncover anything new.

I can't help feeling that if the mccanns weren't so good at playing the system and their daughter wasn't so photogenic it wouldn't be happening.

Do you have any facts to support this 99.9% figure?

Would that be similar to the odds of finding those three girls alive in the USA recently, after being missing for years?

how many kids and young women have gone missing in that time, naydam? those three turning up alive was a once in a blue moon event.

the chances of madeline mccann still being alive are incredibly small. when small children go missing they either turn up within a couple of days or they're dead. that's just the way it is.

It's hard to comprehend that they done it, but some interesting stuff online about the 2 dogs that were brought in:

"On British police advice, the Portuguese asked top dog handler Martin Grime to bring his springer spaniels, Eddie and Keela, to Praia da Luz. Eddie is trained to detect the scent of human corpses; Keela is a bloodhound. Eddie had never given a false alert in over 200 previous outings. He alerted to the odour of a human corpse in 4 different locations in the McCanns’ apartment, two on Dr Kate McCann’s clothes, one of the children’s T-shirts, on the pink soft toy, ‘Cuddle Cat’, and in two places in the car the McCanns hired. Eddie did not alert to a corpse scent anywhere else in Praia da Luz. Keela detected blood, which may have been Madeleine’s blood, at some of these places.

When they heard about the dogs’ findings, the McCanns reacted strangely, claiming that…
The ‘smell of death’ may have been found on Kate’s clothes because she was said to have been close to six corpses in her last two weeks at work, on the pink soft toy ‘Cuddle Cat’ because she ‘sometimes took Cuddle Cat to work’.

Any blood found in the flat might have come from Madeleine ‘grazing her leg’ or suffering a nosebleed. In fact, with the help of Martin Grime’s bloodhound, the police found blood underneath the tiles below a window in the living room of the McCanns’ apartment."

The McCanns also claimed that sniffer dogs were ‘notoriously unreliable’. They quoted a U.S. case where a cadaver dog’s alert was said to be wrong. Months later, the dog’s alert was proved right.

I find the comment about rejecting a mid level consular meeting and the comment about not getting an audience with the PM puzzling and slightly disturbing. They aren't foreign dignitaries. They are two foolish people who have had a great deal of help which hasn't been extended to other people in similar circumstances.

Police were quoting the Cleveland case,but they were young adults,young children if not found 48 hours,not good

with any crime the most vital evidence is often found within a few hours, with this case it is 6 years now.  And if the McCann's are not guilty, they made it too easy for someone else to do it.
