Oh, what I'd give  for a time machine. I could go back and sort this riddle once and for all.

Put yourself in their shoes, only now do they have a proper investigation. 7 years on.

But have you seen the programme? Any thoughts on "the case" ?

The Mcanns movements where routine. Anyone watching could have been picking their moment quite easily. Or, as was suggested, there where several burglaries at the time. She could simply have interrupted a burglary, and been taken to keep her quiet. Lord knows what would happen to her then though. I prefer the snatched to order theory tbh, at least she'd be more likely to be alive.

Yes that seems favourite

As some of you have already said the parents are to blame, you do not leave youngsters alone like they did . Something about this case is just not right, just hope the truth eventually surfaces.

[Marks DTM Calib]

The whole affair seems very fishy to me........

Whilst I totally agree, and as already said, their other children should have been removed whilst assessments were completed; however.................

This happens a lot in holiday places, camp sites, Butlins etc etc........just a thought...........

We always took our children to hotels which catered for children including an early evening meal and a baby patrol until midnight. The children's reps would check every 30 minutes on them and we would go in turn every 30 minutes 15 minutes later, so the children were only every alone for a maximum of 15 minutes. We never left the hotel and felt comfortable with this arrangement as I'm certain thousands of other parents were.

So castigating them over the children's arrangement's is a little over the top IMO, that said they were in an apartment not a hotel with child care.  

[Lazydocker]

My point is that the parents have told several different versions of "Truth" to this

And, for the record, the entrance to the apartments is not within sight of the restaurant at all, in any way shape or form

[albitz]

Snatched to order doesnt add up unforyunately imo. When people snatch kids to order I presume its for wealthy people who don't have kids of their own,or a similar scenario.It that were the case,I would imagine they would have taken one or both of the babies and not the older child.It makes it much easier for people to claim the child is their own.

[TheBoy]

It's time for them to accept that and move on, IMHO.

And miss out on all the fame, attention, and I'm sure money?

Sorry but I stick by what I said , I now take my grandchildren away quite often & I do not rely on others checking them, they are my responsibility just as my children were , how on earth could any parent/grandparent live with themselves after deciding to have an adult only meal & a child vanishing because of that... I in my line of work have dealt with child killers , sexual deviants  & some dangerous individuals & still do on a daily basis ,funny thing is they all say  they are innocent!! The guilty ones here are the parents who left them alone & vunerable.

By blaming someone else

[2boxerdogs]

Exactly, and why not make a bit of cash out of it as well !

[chrisgixer]

Ok, but what about the facts as discussed in the programme?

Seems to me, your all sitting in judge and jury on the parents, WITHOUT SEEING THE PROGRAMME which contains the new info!

Nobody saw the programme so the whole discussion is pointless.


GO WATCH IT!

[chrisgixer]

I agree with you mr LD. Not the knowing the area thing but the rest of the above. 

My personal jury is still very much out on the truth of the matter. The phrase 'methinks they protesteth too much' or similar comes to mind......

I'm especially surprised at you tbh.

EVERYTHING that's gone before is to be ignored. Put yourselves in the position of a jury. Your eventually going to pass sentence on the Evidence presented in the programme, if the case develops.

At this rate we'll be sending the parents down because they where... "NOT PRESENT" 

[chrisgixer]

We are looking for the person that took the child, as the case presented in Crime watch. We have no other reliable info.
