re: Missing child in Portugal - Madeleine McCann
 

Slightly disturbing news today that Madeleine's mother is going to be made a formal suspect in the case!

I can't imagine that she's guilty for one minute. Just looking at the logistics surely, if she had done it then she wouldn't have been able to take the body very far in the time she had and it would have been found by now! But I find it very unbelievable that she would hurt her own child or even sell her - so bizarre!

Isn't this all so typical of the bungling way the Portugese police have handled this case? I know someone who works very closely with police, in this country, who deal with "specialised" cases. When the child went missing they said they would go to Portugal immediately, with all their resources, to help with the investigation. The Portugese police refused to allow them to do so and have stumbled along ever since, only accepting help far too late.

I am very sorry to say, and I desperately hope I'm proved wrong, that I have thought from the start that the child is dead. I have never thought, and I still don't, that her parents have harmed her. I don't believe the other suspect, Robert Muran, had anything to do with the case either. He was "fingered" by a fanciful reporter, clutching at straws, just as Mrs McCann is now.

its saying now that Portuguese police have suggested to Kate McCann that traces of her daughter's blood were found in a car the family hired 25 days after the girl went missing, :eek:
kate McCann being treated as if "involved in daughters death"!!!

whatever the outcome of this tragedy it has been a mess of an investigation from day1.personally i dont think it was the Mcanns n like westender i dont think it was the guy they first suspected the fact that does remain= none of us know! what is also a fact = most children that are killed are done too by close family or someone they know:eek: i hope that is not the case, but who knows?:(

Or, it could be that they are claiming that they are going to arrest her as a bluff - they may think it is the husband or one of the other members of the party and they are hoping that something will slip if they appear to be blaming an innocent person.

i would have thought that if the Mcanns had anything to do with the poor kids disappearance, the survival instinct would kick in, and Portugal is the LAST place they would have stayed.:confused:

re: Missing child in Portugal - Madeleine McCann
 

It is looking more likely that a charge is going to be brought, accor.ding to the family spokesperson Kate has been named as the primary suspect with Gerry as a witness

Re: DNA Yea or Nay?
 

got to agree cashy
i think the local jo law has no ideas left
and need to charge someone for something
so as not to seem incompetent

Re: DNA Yea or Nay?
 

Appears they do have some new evidence, from what they have been saying on the news forensic evidence which has been found and tested has shown something that has brought about these new interviews.

re: Missing child in Portugal - Madeleine McCann
 

I'll be very surprised if Kate McCann is found guilty of a crime here. It's very worrying indeed. I hope she's not about to be framed for something she hasn't done just so the Portugese police can say they've solved the case.:(

Re: DNA Yea or Nay?
 

Yes. They said that traces of Madeleine's blood have been found in the car they hired 20 odd days after she disappeared. What's that all about then?:confused:

re: Missing child in Portugal - Madeleine McCann
 

Doesn't make much sense that; if they had been responsible for the girls death and moved the body 20 days later there wouldn't be any blood leaking anywhere, and it's too much of a coincidence for the car to have been hired out to the perpetrator and then to them .:confused:

Re: DNA Yea or Nay?
 

I don't know any more than you do but I don't believe they would just make things up for the sake of saying they have solved the crime:(

Is child neglect a crime?
