I have checked the paper everyday hopeing and praying that the person who kidnapped maddy will one day let her come home to her mum, dad, brother and sister and of course the whole McCann family. The parents should not be to blame they locked the doors and windows and what the person above is saying is stupid ,of course it was a mistake maybe not a tiny one but it was a mistake. I know people who go on holiday and leave their kids and by the end of the night they return and they are perfectly fine. So the person above needs to wind their neck in and stop making fun of the others opinion so. All I can say is that Kate and Gerry are wonderful parents and they truly thought they would be fine. Its just one of these things that happen. I honestly hope and pray the Maddy is found safe and sound and has the perfect life every child should have. XxXxXxXxX

Kate and Gerry are wonderful parents.
They made a tniy misake of which the whole family will pay for for the rest of their lives.
Maddy was stalked just like any kid can be. The girlfriend of Robert and Robert need to produce some answers.
I hope more of you could worry about Maddy and the real kidnappers will be caught.

my thoughts have always been with madelines parents and the pain they will always suffer they are channeling their time and energy into getting their daughter back something most of us would do .i remember when my young grandaughter was diagnosed with a brain tumor’my daughter turned herself inside out trying to find a cure’because she was given only two years she went on the internet and found potions that were said to help her and many other things which to my mind were a little odd .but my daughter said i must try every thing mum if i dont i have failed her chloe is 19yrs old now so i am pleased the mccanns are leaving no stone unturned.

Ok, I have to say that it is interesting how fired up the religious people on here are, and how defensive the pedophile supporters can be. The fact is, you don’t know what happened. You probably never will. Free will, good and evil, faith, loss of faith, why so defensive. Christianity teaches that humans have free will, and that we create our own miracles. If god intervened in everything, don’t you think he’d get bored and frustrated and just destroy us and start over? Didn’t anyone see Bruce Almighty? Very appropriate and an accurate representation of God’s activity in our lives. We make our own decisions, and they made the decision to leave their children unattended for a prolonged period of time. I agree that they do need to face charges for neglect and child endangerment. Anyone that doesn’t know fancy celebrities and powerful people would have been prosecuted immediately. Regardless of their involvement in Madeline’s abduction/murder, they are her parents and the people held solely responsible for her safety and wellfare. They allowed her to be a victim, either by someone they know, or by their own doing. She is a cute kid, but cute only works for so long. Furthermore, pedophelia or child molestation (just so I don’t start a whole new debate on what is the correct label for someone who has inappropriate thoughts and actions with children) regardless of how often it occurs, is not normal. It is a sickness, that is more prevalent than it is recognized. Yes it is often a family member, but more and more often in this world that is just out of control, there are more random acts of violence and inappropriate behavior. Ultimately, there is no way that we are ever going to know what happened to Madeline, even if they find her alive or find her body. Any evidence collected at this point is fruitless, and most previous evidence collected had been compromised. Look at the Ramseys here in the USA. It is the common belief that they murdered their daughter. There were suspicious circumstances surrounding her dissappearance, and untimely death. The Ramseys repeatedly denied any involvement in their daughter’s death, but who would actually know. Mrs Ramsey passed recently, and all the tabloids reported that on her death bed she admitted to murdering her daughter. It’s bull, but people eat it up. No one actually knows except the perpetrator. Unfortunately here we are 10+ yrs later, and still no further than we were at the time. This instance is very similar. Botched police work, compromised evidence, the main differences are that she was reported kidnapped, then found dead hours later in her own home, and that at the time, DNA evidence has found no matches to date. A man admitted to murdering her, but later was exhonerated when his DNA did not match any of the several samples taken from her. We will never know, and unfortunately for Madeline, she is the victim to her parent’s negligence, whether 1st hand, or simply by leaving their children unattended. The most unfortunate part is that her twin sisters will have to live with the shame of their parents assumed guilt.

I THINK HER PARENTS HAVE KILLED HER

My question is this…why is it, that all of the “so called” witnesses and “sightings” are just now coming forth? The supposed new sighting of the girlfriend was, I believe it said, in May…so why is it just NOW being investigated…it seems that everytime the focus, DNA, and otherwise seems to narrow in on the parents, others jump forward with sightings and clothes by the wayside in bags, etc. to divert the attention. It all goes back to sniffer dogs with no agenda and DNA which saves people from death in the electric chair, or either incriminates them. Now the parents have “declined” lie detector tests!!!!!!!!!! Is this the plan all along, say you will have it, then you won’t?

Point 1: Do religious people think that grammar and punctuation are the tools of the devil, or what?

Point 2: I don’t know why everyone is so down on Kate McCann. It’s Gerry that looks like the psychopath.

Point 3: Anti_idiot says:
Paedophilia is an attraction to prepubescents, that isn’t a crime. It’s molestation which is an offence. Calling all child molesters paedophiles is like referring to any man attracted to women as a rapist.

Um, I think what you probably meant was: “Calling all paedophiles child molesters…”, not the other way around, but let’s examine this. Can we really compare paedophiles to heterosexual men? 90-ish percent of males are attracted to females. Unlike paedophiles, acting on that attraction certainly does not have to involve committing a crime; it’s not like rape is the only way for an adult male to show attraction to an adult female. Dating and marriage are two examples. Acting on an attraction to children, however, always involves a crime.

i think the mum killed her and her dad knows about it … i think this because she has shown no emotion at all .. and the dad has only a little .

I notice all the friends of the family are coming out of the woodwork now. ‘What wonderful parents they are’ ‘Oh no, they could never do anything to harm their children’ HELLO, ‘Dr Shipman? Oh yes he was a wonderful GP’ ‘Rosemary West? Oh yes, a lovely neighbour’ ‘Mr Crippin? Such a wonderful lodger!’ ha ha ha ha

A sniffer dog was said to have picked up the scent of a body inside the apartment where Madeleine disappeared and it was believed that detectives were holding back a “key clue” that had led them to the conclusion.
Her parents, Kate and Gerry, have been kept in the dark about developments and are still demanding to see what has caused the shift in the investigation.

I wonder what this key clue they are basing Madeleine being dead on is and they are still saying the parents are NOT suspects?

SAR and cadaver dogs and drug sniffers are very very real and very reliable, there are also a few who can sniff out unknown tumours.
We actually don’t know what the police know, and they have actually said again today that the parents are not suspects.

But a lot of child abuse victims are attacked by their parents, children are killed by their parents, sometimes very accidentally , sometimes with malicious intent

Oh get real. None of those things about dogs scenting dead bodies and blood on the walls means anything. Read some reputable newspapers and you’d know that. The police are clutching at straws. Parents always come under suspicion when these things happen and there are no leads, it’s a last ditch resort for investigators to save face. God created good AND evil, there couldn’t be good without evil. Unfortunately some people choose the latter, and the rest of us have to live with it.

I am confused by the Mccanns statements. First they would not leave Portugal with out Madeleine. Kate tells us they would not be bullied to go home.
NOW, when the police have changed their tune as far as keeping the Mccanns informed, and emails, cell phone records and texts are checked by police, blood and other materials are being tested and a dog gets a hit on a dead body in their apartment…they are now saying they may go home, they have the twins to think about. I’m sorry, but yes i’m sure the twins miss Madeleine, but they are 2….they are on HOLIDAY, they are going to the day care, the zoo, the beach, they are visiting with family…..Are they going home because of the twins or because they are worried?

shirleecia ward …..First let me say i do believe in God. When a child is taken, killed, neglected or abused…I have to admit…I question why God would let that happen. He did not make the person behind the killing or abuse do that, they did it of their own free will. But we are taught that God has a reason for everything and a plan for everyone. God is a good person, not evil or cruel. Why is Maddie’s plan to be taken before she reaches her 4th b-day?!?!? Why are so many children killed (look how many at the hands of their own parents who love them) or neglected and abused (by moms and dads and other loved ones) I will say this i do not understand….The world is becomming a evil place and we as parents need to PROTECT our children. We need to keep Maddie and all the other lost, missing, abused, neglected and murdered children in our prayers and work to make this world a safe place for them to live.

just reading through the comments i sit here totally amazed at the range of attitudes of the people who make regular comments. To be honest I didn’t realise this was a debating site as such and just wanted to leave a msg of support for Mr and Mrs McCann. I’d like to just say one thing firstly to those in who believ in God. God is God all by Himself and doesnt need us to defend Him. All He asks of us as His people is to live a blameless life. Don’t worry about the unbelief of others but concentrate on praying firtsly for your own rightcheoness, then the saftey of Madline McCann and love and eace for her family. Then people of God take time to pray for unbelevers because the Bible says to pray for those who do not know any better so to speak.
I belive we all want to know this child is well first and for most regardless to our opinions of her parents and their behaviour.
I certainly will continue to pray for her because i am certain that God in His wisdom has a plan. However i do not know what it is but i do know God is able and I praise Him for that.
So for Mr and Mrs McCann be reassured that God knew MADELINE BEFORE SHE WAS FORMED IN THE WOMB AND HE LOVED HER EVEN THEN. Keep your faith and also your every effort to find your precious child. Remember to pray for your younger two children and allow God to do His will.
To every one else out there I want you to know that when the day comes for you to feel as though you cannot go on… the way the McCanns probably feel most days… just call on the name Jesus because He will receive you and put you on the right path and love you eternally. God is a parent and just like us he disiplines us because he loves us and wants to see us prosper but the Love He shows is the biggest thing above all.
God bless you all especially you little Madeline

I think it’s all a smokescreen to conceal the fact that the Mcanns have sold their child! And some of you agree, but are too worried about looking like a bad person to come out and say it.
There’s something deeply disturbing about the Mcann’s whole attitude.
