I believe the McCanns are involved in their daughter's death and/or disappearance.
The evidence is just too compelling to think otherwise, in my view.
Even feeling as I do, I watched a video of them speaking and I believed them...or should I say, I experienced the overwhelming desire to believe them.
I get it, I really do.
I understand why people are so strongly supportive of them. They are very, very credible. You want so badly to believe them.
<modsnip> They don't skip a beat (unless you look very closely). They are the young and competent professional you want to examine you next time you feel a lump or something. You <modsnip>
<modsnip>.
Might they be innocent as claimed?
Yes, they might. They certainly put on a fantastic display of it. Maybe they even believe it now. Maybe they have bargained so much guilt away as being in the interests of their remaining children that what they did seems completely justified and they even FEEL innocent.
:dunno:
Despite what I want to believe, what I DID believe for that few minutes of video, my logical, straight-line thinking brain will just not allow it. Every shred of common sense and intelligence I have has tells me they are guilty as sin...but I can empathise from where other's faith comes from. This thread isn't for arguing the details of the case, just for me to say - I get it.
Ironically, it's this very credibility I believe the McCanns have used to pull the wool over everyone's eyes, including those politicians who now just want the whole thing to go away. They believed them too. There are a lot of people now trying to distance themselves from the whole saga.
It's just almost unbelievable. But then truth often is stranger than fiction.
As usual, this is my opinion only.
