The Mccaans will not be charged with anything . I have watched this case from the beginning and I never thought that they were involved in her death
The press in portugal and in the UK have been shocking .....mainly just making up whatever they wished - sadly it soon became forum facts and hence we all discussed it day in day out not just here but in forums all across the internet
Whatever happened to all the facts like the barn , the blood spray , the post mortem DNA , I even think that the two dogs were so hyped up that they turned into almost super dogs who could sort out the case alone
I think that the Portugese PJ have a lot that can be handed at their door - archaic secrecy laws in this modern age - they let this case drift in the wind and we had the crazy situation where the major suspects were all winning million dollar libel cases a year after - just mad
Sadly I dont know what happened to Maddy - I think she was probably taken - either in her room or outside . I dont think that her parents or the rest of the tapas had anththing to do with her death
I know that this view is not popular here - one of the reasons I stopped posting back in Feb it just got to much ya boo without any way to back up arguments
I hope that this forum will respect the results of the Portugese legal system - whatever it says . I will
REPLY: Very interesting, gord, especially so since it was you, wasn't it, that re-posted here Nigel's rather hostile questioning of The Madeleine Foundation? - to which I gave a lengthy reply a few days ago.
You wrote: "I even think that the two dogs were so hyped up that they turned into almost super dogs who could sort out the case alone". Hmmm, so why did the McCanns come up with that great long list of reasons why the death scent should be on Kate's clothes, Cuddle Cat, in the apartment, in the hired Renault Scenic? - and Madeleine's blood or body fluids in the apartment and in the car?
Maybe you've forgotten them?
Well, here's a reminder...
* I took Cuddle Cat to work with me
* I saw 6 dead bodies in my last fortnight at work
* Madeleine slipped on the steps of the plane and grazed her knee
* The children's ditry nappies were in the boot
* Gerry took rotting meat to the dump.

You also mentioned "archaic secrecy laws in this modern age".
REPLY: Hmmm. No police force anywhere in the world discloses the secrets of an investigation
until the suspects are charged. Look for example at the wide-ranging Freedom of Information Act 2000, but which contains a specific prohibition of disclosure of information from an ongoing police investigation. Archaic?

REPLY: Hmmm. According to the McCanns and Jane Tanner, this must have been accomplished between about 9.12pm and 9.14pm by a man who walked in through an unlocked patio door, then picked Madeleine up whilst putting Cuddle Cat 'on a high shelf or ledge', and leapt through the windows and shutters he'd specially opened from the inside, without leaving a forensic trace on the window sill where all the years-old lichen was left totally undisturbed. And even that's only after Jane Tanner had weeks of 'cognitive therapy' from an unnamed 'expert' who apparently managed to coax out of her, about 6 months after the event, a much better 'memory' of what she had seen that evening than she did immediately after. And that's not forgetting that the abductor might have been hiding behind a door, which was open at an angle of 60 degrees (it was only 45 degrees earlier), breathing noiselessly so that Gerry didn't hear him, while, on his last check, he was gazing down adoringly at his lovely daughter Madeleine thinking how lucky he was to have such a beautiful child...

REPLY: There seems to be a flurry of triumphalist posts coming from the Team McCann camp tonight. Perhaps the McCanns' lawyers have been told the case will be 'archived', with no charges being pressed (for now).
In which case,
there must be an inquest, so that all the evidence about her 'disappearance' may be aired in public.
It's no less than poor Madeleine deserves
