PinkHammer: You "nailed" the McCann Machinery, when you spoke of the latest DNA-related b.s. The part where the McCanns offer an explanation for the transfer of DNA to the spare wheel well in the boot of the car: that it could simply be due to the sweat on Maddie's sandals. I don't know where the hell the DNA is from. We don't even know the quantity. But seriously...sandal sweat?
Ok. That does it for me. I'm done sitting on the fence. I am going to leapfrog over all the nitpicking facts in this case and disregard all theories pro and con. If that's what the McCanns think is a truthful disclosure, and a reasonable/honest explanation for the source of DNA - I am throwin' down a big yellow penalty flag, and squeezing the bulb on the air horn. HONK, if your b.s. detector just went off.
Sweat from Maddie's sandals? Please.
As much as some would like to hold off on their theory/judgment of the McCanns, until "facts" are made known - I think their impartiality is being exploited by the McCanns and their spokes-mouth. And I am saying that loud and clear.
Does this exploitation of honest people, such as many here, mean that the McCanns murdered their daughter? Nope, but it should seriously cast doubt on the truthfullness of any and all statements that the McCanns have made, from May 3 to the present date. Their exploitative PR tactics suggests that 1. Honesty is an expendible commodity; 2. It is easy to dupe honest people, because they are the least likely to expect it; 3. They abandoned their three children to party, left their apartment door unlocked, and partied at a location that was so far away, they would not have heard one little wimper. For that, they should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of applicable Portugal law.
