throbber Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Yes, half way through and it hasn’t changed my opinion in anyway. There is no evidence whatsoever to link the McCann’s to, or even suggest they were involved in the Murder/Manslaughter of their child. They’re 100% guilty of neglect, something they’ll have to live with their entire lives.It’s still all about the time line for me rather than the belief that parents couldn’t possibly do this to their child, and until there is a reasonable hypothesis that involves the parents being responsible then I am still convinced it was an abduction.The idea that they stowed her body away for some time then removed it at a later date (in the backseat of the rental car) is absurd considering the media frenzy that followed them about for months after, there is no way they could have done it knowing that nobody would be watching. They would also have needed to know of a decent place to hide the body and think it all up on the spot either just before the dinner or just after the alarm had been raised, it simply doesn’t work for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as I said on the Netflix thread, the fact that a couple of the Portuguese journos are absolute wids is a bonus. Especially Sandra, an absolute WID to the power ten. Any eagle-eyed viewers notice the young police officer outside the McCann's house in Leicestershire? Only on view for a few seconds but another wid. However, Sandra is in another league - no wonder Gerry didn't refuse that interview! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D Angelo Barksdale Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I think that Kate and Gerry and the tapas 7 weren't entirely truthful with the police. This undoubtedly contributed to the police suspecting them of being up to no good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was that the Daily Mail hack who thought a local ex-pat should be arrested because "he seemed a bit weird" and got him splashed all over the newspapers? If so, wid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s quite unbiased I would say but it makes me feel (to an extent) sympathy for them, and certainly makes it fairly obvious to me that they had no direct hand in whatever happened. Negligent, yes 100%, and they will have to live with that guilt forever. But the explanations/conspiracy theories given for them having done it are nothing short of preposterous. 100% 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having got lost she has walked into the middle of the road and been killed. The driver having had a few drinks has shat it, put her body in the boot and buried here somewhere in the mountains.

Dee Man Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 I've never really bought into the McCann's being directly responsible for her disappearance but the only thing that slightly perturbs me about Gerry McCann is the way he talks so matter-of-factly about Madeleine vanishing without any hint of emotion. As with everything in life, everyone is different and reacts differently to certain situations but to literally show no flicker of emotion when your firstborn disappears strikes me as slightly bizarre, unless his job training involves being able to detach yourself from emotional situations. Or unless he's a sociopath. I've never heard any motive for why the McCann's would want their daughter dead anyway apart from the accidental overdose which seems unlikely if you are a qualified GP. The only possible reason I could think of for Gerry wanting her dead is if he resented her in some way if he knew he wasn't the biological father but apparently that line has been suggested by the Portugese police who say they have concrete evidence there was a sperm donor used which was denied by the McCann's. Has WaffenThinMint ever been questioned? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
