Madeleine ​McCann to Jeffery ​Boucher: Web sleuths' quest for the missing
Anya Chand, an England-based writer, is one of the many amateur sleuths online who have followed the Madeleine McCann case since the British girl disappeared during a 2007 family vacation in Portugal. Chand has spent months pouring through 11,000 pages of case files online. (Jesse Tahirali/CBC)
The Websleuths topic thread on Boucher has more than 1,000 replies and over 60,000 views. Larger mysteries, like the disappearance of three-year-old Madeleine McCann, can generate hundreds of topic threads and more than one million views.
Mowat is part of an online community of amateur detectives. She and thousands of others spend their free time flipping through police reports, watching closed-circuit television (CCTV) footage and braving government databases of unidentified remains, trying to answer the most fundamental question surrounding every crime: "What happened?"
