Criminals fall into two distinct categories - organised and disorganised.
If we are to accept abduction, we have to accept that it was well organised.
I say this, and use the phrase "the perfect crime" because it hasn't been solved. Whatever precautions the perp took worked.
Saying this (obviously organised imo) perp would walk through an unlocked door then open a window, is contradictory to the crime itself. The window was on the rear of the building, facing the Tapas restaurant. The McCanns insisted they could see it from where they sat (proven false).
He allegedly watched the McCanns, unseen for how long? stole into their apartment, opened a window (for whatever reason) then left with Madeleine, all silently and without any sort of trace whatsoever.
This is not the act of a disorganised criminal who is in a psychotic state and talking to people who aren't there.
If there was an abductor, he was a very successful one in that he is still free. He was not disturbed, unbalanced or insane, rather extremely cool and calculating.
Which begs the question - if he was in the apartment for half an hour, what was he doing? Staring into space? He clearly did not use his time rifling through drawers for valuables. :dunno:
