To me, all the pieces of the puzzle seem to fit with BDI. Except for one important fact: He's never spilled the beans. I'm sure he's been asked many many times whether he had anything to do with the crime, and obviously he has never said a word that would incriminate him. Why in earth would...

Hi everyone! Let me start by saying that I have absolutely no knowledge about SA law. That said: Is there any chance of a different outcome If it can be proven somehow that the law was applied wrongfully? *stillcrossingmyfingers*

Hi everyone, I'm a first time poster on this board, though I have been following this case for a long time. I totally agree with the above post. I do think that BDI makes sense, but I just can't get past the fact that Burke could keep a secret like that for himself, for all these years. There...

What an excellent post, docwho3! :clap: I agree with everything you've written and have been asking myself the same questions.

I have never believed that the McCanns have had any plans to murder Madeleine. The only scenario I ever believed in was of there being an accident, most likely when the McCanns were out dining. This must have come as a huge shock to them. I'm sure they would have been shocked, terrified...

I have followed this case since the day after Madeleine disappeared, and I've followed it as close as I possibly could. I have two children who are exactly the age of Madeleine and the twins, and maybe that is why it grasped my attention more than any other case of child abduction. For a long...

Ehm... At work? That's why she was out with the nanny? :woohoo:

Neither can I- on a personal level. Unfortunately- this is not too uncommon in Europe, and amongst tourist visiting the mediterranean. Every year you can read in the newspaper about parents "forgetting" their kids in the hotelroom while they're out drinking, parents neglecting the kids and...

It could be a Nanny, NightillDawn. Brussels is something like the diplomatic capitol in Europe, and there will be thousands of children there having a nanny. I'm not living in Brussels, but in another capitol of Europe, and would not react at all if I saw blonde children walking hand in hand...

Here's a link to the CCTV footage: http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/video/article270335.ece

I've just seen it on the website of a British Newspaper. They showed the CCTV footage too. I don't really know what to think of it, though. The girl looked very much the way Madeleine looked just before she disappeared. And she seemed kind of akward together with the woman she was holding...

gord- I have a kid just like yours, sleeping through everything. And I have another one, who will wake up at any sound. But I doubt Madeleine was one of the children that would sleep through everything. Simply because neither Kate nor Gerry have said that she was. THey said the twins were sound...

Until there is new evidence that clearly points away from the McCanns, I personally will continue to believe that they are guilty. Or at least know who is.

I think it the whole thing was a conspiracy, no one would have gotten out of the car alive. It seems like all experts agree that Diana (I don't know about Dodi) would have survived if she was wearing her seatbelt. Pretty bad conspiracy, unless someone would have sabotaged her belt. I don't...

I think there is a difference in an innocent experience like this, and in a abduction case. It's not that she just changed her statement of what she saw, it's that it got more and more details as time went by. First, she didn't see a child at all, just a bundle that could be a child, and in...
