Have A Good Day

In the meantime, here is an interesting article that appeared in the “News of The World” in the UK, which you might find of interest. You may wish to read it.

Al those risks were there, which is why they should never have left the children in the first place.

What I’m wondering is why nobody really suggests wandering away as a serious possibility, except that bloke (Mark…???) who says she probably wandered away and was picked up by a lone paedophile.

The official police investigation didn’t conclude that wandering out was a more likely scenario than any other, did it? I think it might have done if the doors or windows could have been opened by a small child.

Anyway, off to enjoy the sunshine now! Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Have you sorted out yet how little Maddie went ‘poof’ and disappeared into thin air? Noted we are reminded abduction hasn’t been proven. Even if she wandered out of the room and then was grabbed she was abducted!

Frankly, Maria, I think there should be a black out on further news re the search for the perpetrator or alien ship or whatever caused her to disappear into thin air. The papers write their sexed up headlines to sell their papers and the mob starts getting itchy. Unfortunately, even paedos have their Rights to a fair trial or hearing or whatever …

Its not only wandering out, there could be a risk of fire, a child vomiting or falling, or playing with electrical sockets. I know these risks are still there when the parent is sleeping, but if the parent is absent?
Small children are also very prone to high temperatures, and holidays are very exciting times and changes of diet and routine can ‘upset’ kids

Oh I agree they would still want to know what happened, but they are intelligent people and maybe could have anticipated something could happen, even when the odds are nothing would , BUT

It depends what those events were. If she simply fell to her death somewhere and the police didn’t find her, yes, I’d agree. But if someone met and took her, than that person is still “to blame”.

In any case, I think the Mcs would probably know if Madeleine had been capable of opening the patio windows or front door herself, or the shutters and main window. Not even Amaral suggests that. Why would the Mcs not think it likely? It can’t just be to avoid the accusation of negligence because leaving your child open to the possibility of being got at by someone from outside is just as serious “negligence” as leaving her able to get out and wander away. I don’t think it a likely scenario though one would have to know the apartment and the doors and windows to be able to judge, and also the way the apartment looked when Kate went back at 10.00pm. The tapas friends do know those apartments and don’t seem to think it likely that she just wandered away. The police surely carried out the sort of search of the immediate locality which would have revealed where she was if that had happened? A small child wouldn’t be able to go far in the time.

But even if that was what happened, they’d still want to know what happened next, wouldn’t they?

Of course, I agree that it can’t be dismissed as a possibility unless one does know the apartment well.

If someone took Madeleine , yes they (who took her) are to blame, but if Madeleine wandered out of the apartment, and unknown events befell her, then her parents are to blame.
There is contributory negligence here, that must be remembered.
And the consequences

Are you saying that if someone took Madeleine, that person is not to blame because the Mcs left the children?

So it’s OK to commit a heinous crime if someone gives you the opportunity?

We should leave this person alone because all s/he was doing was taking advantage of an opportunity to kidnap and child…plus whatever else happened to her afterwards?

Don’t think so! I do agree that, at this late stage, it’s unlikely the person will be found, but I think, if I was the mother, I wouldn’t want to give up the search either.

Moderator _ There is no proof of abduction.

I will add… Madeleine McCann was cruelly left unprotected, and the worst happened. Now the macabre exercise of finding someone to blame lurches into its third pathetic year.
