This is off-topic but a potentially similar case to Darlie's. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/7663650.stm Kind regards, brit

Presumably this will all take a while, if Darlie's attorneys have another 5 months to request additional items. When the results eventually come back, and of course Darlie will not be exonerated, does she have any further recourse? And what sort of timescale would she be looking at for a date to...

I am a very (very!) occasional poster, but I have been following Darlie's case for a while now and I felt I had to comment. When I first heard about Darlie it was in the context of there being a number of people who believed in her innocence, and I immediately thought, hmmm, so many people seem...

Thanks for the welcome. Good luck with the gnashers!

What CAN you mean... ;)

I may be wrong here, but wasn't there evidence that Richard Allen Davis "staked out" the Klaas home prior to kidnapping poor Polly?

Oh, OK then. Just to warn you though, I'm quite high-maintenance!

Hi colomom. We Brits do have a reputation for reserve and I think it's probably true. In the British media there HAS been criticism of the McCanns for leaving their kids unattended (and I totally agree with that criticism), BUT I haven't come across any criticism of their emotional behaviour.

Thanks, S Finch. I don't mind fellow posters being "rough" on me- we all feel passionately about this, and with feelings running high things are bound to get a little loud! Sadly, in Britain we've had our fair share of parents/relatives who have murdered their kids- Heather West (killed by...

Thanks...I'm here all week! I think, regarding the parents, we'll have to agree to disagree. I really like this forum, it's good to get other people's opinions on things, and I DO understand where your criticisms come from.

Not necessarily. Maybe 19 minutes is really slow! (Sorry, just trying a bit of light relief...)

Hi! Thanks for the welcome. I absolutely agree with you, and thank-you for sharing the situation with your son. I really do feel that the emotions the McCanns are going through are as you've described. I'm a mother too and I just don't know how I'd behave in the McCann's situation. Like...

YOU have decided he is "bragging". I don't think it's bragging. We have different interpretations. MY interpretation is that he's trying to keep his family "real" to the public (the Find Madeleine website is hugely popular). I actually found his entries about the running, etc quite poignant.

I'm sure you don't care if I'm repulsed, calus 3. Why should you? We will have to agree to disagree. You have your take on Gerry McCann's blog, on the parents' behaviour etc, and I have mine. So be it.

I totally agree. Unfortunately, Gerry's methodical "Christmas-letter-style" blog has been misinterpreted by some as proof of involvement, or at least of him not caring. What a shame.

Well, I'm speechless. Hey, maybe they staged the whole thing so they could have an extra 2-3 months in the sun! Maybe they paid someone to kidnap, rape and murder their daughter so they could visit the Pope and walk about Morocco...unfortunately there was a mix-up and the perp didn't take the...

If they stayed with the twins, they would be criticised for being too passive and not doing enough. As to your assertion that they are finishing their expensive vacation plans...do I understand you correctly...are you saying they are using this as an excuse for a nice long vacation? Or have I...

I have been lurking for a bit following people's thoughts regarding Madeleine's abduction. I have a special interest in the case as the McCanns live about 10 miles away from me, and Madeleine's story is constantly on the local news. I felt compelled to add an entry because I find it...

Good on him!!!:dance: :woohoo:

I would remain an IDI, for the reasons cited above by cwiz.
