I agree with what you are saying, they don't just pull facts out of thin air

People have been framed before. Remember Deirdre Rashid?

Sorry, only joking there, I know Coronation Street's not real. Seriously, people have been wrongly convicted for all sorts of crimes and left to languish in prison. You're right, none of us knows what's happened. We've said before that we shouldn't be speculating and we shouldn't but it's hard not to discuss something so high profile and something that is getting more and more bizarre.
We'll find out eventually.

I mentioned this many times earlier in this thread and was called callous, how strange that I was told off for it, as I said way back, don't put your heart on your sleeve, just because you want things to be nice doesn't mean all people are going to be nice, I wish that child could be found alive and well, but these people have always been given too much benefit of the doubt.

If you can be bothered, read the thread from the beginning.

I have read it and I agree with what you are saying. This is the first time I have posted regarding this matter because I knew the reaction I would get for daring to voice my thoughts on the matter. May I add I don't mean from you.

Until we know any facts, I still think it's sad that people are playing amateur sleuth.

It helps no one, especially not the poor child.

Agree. I, too, am reserving judgement until we know more.

It does sound weird ... one of the things that was discussed in the Colonial Broadcasting Service coverage was that now she is a "formal suspect" she is allowed to refuse to answer questions, sort of a Portuguese version of the Fifth Ammendment. Doesn't seem like an efficient method of getting info.

Let's see some hard evidence.

Doesn't look like we have long to wait if the latest news is anything to go by.

Unfortunately, in this less than perfect world, the general public seems far more interested in sensationalism and innuendo. And there again, hard evidence doesn't always convince; the name Rodney King comes to mind.
