I find it ironic that the outpourings of sympathy for the McCanns have now given way to condemnation in some quarters. They may have contributed to the childs disappearance, they are certainly guilty of leaving the opportunity open by their negligence, but I don't know and neither does anyone else who is not directly involved in the case. I strongly suspect that the Portugese police simply want to wrap the case up, one way or the other, and aren't too fussy how it comes about.

I agree, I find it very hard to believe they've hurt their own child, though as I've said before they are guilty of negligence.
