Case Against The Mccanns Is Strong

[philamena]

Me too. I just can't imagine with all these parents are going through that they are being vilified on nothing more than rumor or innuendo. If something concrete comes along, I'll change my tune. I just haven't seen anything yet. IMO.

Me too IrishMist.
I don't want to be misunderstood. Just the other day I read an article that gave Kate accolades for some chilling comments she'd made about her child's disappearance. I later found out the article I read was from a tabloid type magazine whose source was a friend of a friend of a friend.... there was no direct quote.

Exactly.

Yes and as unpopular an opinion as that is here, I also don't think the parents did it. BUT I still try to read each post and try to read all the media links posted. I'm waiting for something concrete.

I feel the same way. I keep on reading and keep on reading.
I'm just not comfortable with the information and sources.

All summer the PJ has been mounting a case against the McCanns. Just because they aren't hauling their butts back into interrogation doesn't mean they have nothing on them.

Or, the PJ could be leaking untruths in an effort to make the McCann's crack.

csds703,
Keep on reading! Hopefully there will be a break in the case soon. If only the police could hold news conferences like those held during the Peterson trial. Did you follow that case?
Thinking about this beautiful little girl being without her family tortures me. I truly hope and pray the case is solved soon.

I was obsessed with the Peterson cases. LOL.

Gerrys latest claim that he thinks the abductor was in the apartment when he checked on Maddy disturbs me, I doubt this very much & why is he only saying it now?

 

[Pinkhammer]

He's saying it now because they just had a six-hour sitdown with their four man legal team, and are being told what to say. The defense is in full motion. This must mean the McCanns expect to be indicted and to be tried in Portugal. They have two British and two Portuguese defense lawyers...all very expensive.

Do you have a link showing where Gerry said that? I don't have that.

Thanks, but the very first sentence clears this up.

From the link:

"Gerry McCann is convinced his daughter's kidnapper was hiding behind a door in their holiday apartment as he checked on his sleeping children, according to a friend."

IMO, we really don't know what Gerry has said. Only what a "friend" is claiming.

Well it is the friends also who have now come out of the woodwork & are denying what Kate is reported to have said when she first discovered Maddy missing so it would appear that there is some sort of campaign now going on to refute any damning things that were in the news before.

There is a great new thread called "Separating Fact from Fiction" (http://websleuths.com/forums/showthread.php?t=53594) and you might want to bring that up over there. We all are very much aware that the vast majority of what we are reading is not necessarily FACT but we still would like to discuss it....

Thank you.

I just posted about this on another thread. I'm sure their friends are defending them! But on this particular point, it appears that the author is interviewing a witness.

I have to admit that bothers me too. Think I'll check out the comments about that on the other thread.
That could happen......remember all the scary movies we watched as kids and teens? There was always someone behind the door. ( FWIW-I'm not making light of Maddie's disappearance.)

Gerry said that he went into the room therefore the kidnapper could not have been in there & would not have had time to hide anywhere else from he heard the patio doors opening I think without being seen by Gerry

 

[Texana]

If a person were in the room before Gerry entered--what were they doing that they could so quickly step behind a door and not be seen by Gerry? Leaving absolutely no trace of themselves or sound to be detected by Gerry?

And then, exiting the apartment within the hour...by the rear patio door, having entered by the windows, although that was not noticed by Gerry?

Why leave by the windows at all then? What sense does that make? Carrying a child, you would leave from the inside through the windows?

The tampered shutters were supposedly (next to Cuddle Cat's position) the most egregious signs of an abductor. But why didn't Gerry notice the windows open then? Because they were not.

And if they were not, then the whole abductor theory must go out the window, in terms of the "hiding behind the door" theory.

I was totally obsessed with the Ramsey case, JonBenet stole my heart- man what a cute kid and what a tragic end to such a short life.
I still think about her.

This is not helping Madelaine.
