Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

The line gets drawn here and now - If people want this thread to stay open, new points need to be brought up. There is absolutely no need for the same thing being said again and again, I agree and I don't think any other 'responsible' person would argue this, that you shouldn't leave young children alone. Okay, we have established this fact, time to move on from this and discuss something else about the case.

The opportunity exists for this thread to stay open, don't waste it by arguing with a request I have made or it will get closed and I will take action on the member(s) responsible for its closure.

It's much worse than that Rizzy, the reason Portuguese police now believe she is dead because one of the British dogs out there is a cadaver dog, it picked up a scent in the room

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

Yeah i saw TONIGHTS news that the dog is meant to have picked up the odour of a dead body having been in the apartment :(.

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

Hi Rizzyking, good to see your comment, it is just a thought, to find ways of finding her, as whilst l have been writing this thread, Sky news have an exclusive with The News Of The World, that in tomorrows edition, they have some interesting information on this case, how is that for a newsflash to fellow members.:)

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

it's all starting to sound very depressing if this new 'news' is genuine.

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

The news is genuine I'm sure, there is still hope though, she wouldn't have been in the room long (if the worst happened) and it was months ago now, the mutt could well be wrong

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

Seems she wasn't murdered after all

I find it odd that apparently the parents were never suspects - highly unlikely thought it may be that they had any role in this, surely the Police work on the basis that everyone connected to an incident is a suspect until it can be proved that they weren't responsible.

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

The bloods is not her's, It does not however rule out the possibillity of her being murdered in the apartment.

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

Right now i am gladdened that the blood wasn't hers and hope that means she is still alive.

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

Just repeating what the paper reported, they must have got this from somewhere, unless they have caught the British newspaper disease and are just making things up now!!

It says forensic results show the blood came from a man, ending speculation the little girl was murdered in the apartment the night she disappeared.

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

You're both right in a sense - absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. However as I've been saying all along, we need to give due regard to likelihood based on available evidence, otherwise we have no reliable means of establishing which theories are more credible and which are less credible.

The fact that the blood does not belong to Madeleine McCann means that there is *no* evidence to support the theory that she died in the apartment. In terms of working out what is likely to have happened to her, this does, as the newspaper suggests, put an end to the speculation that she died there. Or at least, it should. Sadly I suspect the conspiracists won't want to let it drop. :(

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

I think the worse part is the just not knowing, as a mother I really do not know how I would cope not knowing if my little one was out there somewhere with god knows what happening to him/her :(
