There may be trouble aheeeeead....

and then add the ability for either of them to get around Portugal unnoticed by the police or press 25 days and all the publicity later.

Couple of other thoughts reading the links posted...

Per the BBC link.

88%, so not 100% = 17/20 vs the 15/20 DNA indicators in the BBC link. Could this be sibling DNA from puke, poop or something else?

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

Just thought but at the stage where that car could have been used the focus was clearly on Kate and Gerry mc'cann so if maddie was in that car would a friend or family member have done it while the spotlight was firmly elsewhere. Yet more speculation but then thats all this affair is mainly and not a lot of facts by virtue that the portugese police are not in accordance with their laws releasing much information.

This is starting to look very bad but the worst thing about recent events is that a 4 year old has lost her life and will not have the life she should have done however that life was ended or by whom.

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

there is also this quote to contend

'Police searching the car also found so much of Madeleine's hair that it could not have been transferred from a blanket or clothes.

It must have come directly from her body,'



The information came from senior sources in the investigation who briefed Portuguese journalists

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

So, decomposing, her body was placed in the boot of the car where the spare wheel is kept, hair fell off in a clump as would happen with decomposing flesh, maybe snagged on something as she was taken out or put in.
Is that what people are thinking?

Thing is, with the amount of media around, how?

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

Which then begs another question, if the dog that was brought in to sniff for corpses, and got a result in the apartment.

Why, did it not get a result in the hire car ??

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

Exactly, a "fresh" body is more likely to smell of a live person than a 25 day old body would.

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

The 'real' abducter could have broken into the hire car and planted the 'evidence' at some point to cover his or her tracks.

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

There is of course the option that the dog did not search the hire car. (for whatever reason)

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

I heard it costs £5000 per day to hire those dogs, for that money, they dont make mistakes

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

Erm, in a nutshell not likely to happen as

a) you would have further DNA from an unknown person in the vehicle (So far as I know the authorities have not said that this has happened)

Whilst looking at some bits and pieces this morning, it would appear that no one had hired the car that the McCanns were using up to eight weeks before they hired it.

b) There would be some sign of forced entry to the car, or the alarm would have gone off

c) The likelyhood of a suspect returning to a scene is very very unlikely

Does not answer the question though

The dog either was not given the oppurtunity to 'smell' the car. Or, it did and it had a missmelling :D (sorry, could not think of a better word)

Or is your point one of that it must not have had the chance ?

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

Yes because at 5 grand a day you don't get miss smellings, mistakes, weeing on the carpet or humping peoples legs, sure it's all in the hire bumf ;)

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

So, surely the dog should be allowed to now investigate the car ? and the fact that it has not already is surely worrying ?

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

Do we know for certain it didn't check the car, couldn't it have simply found no traces of a corpse, don't know what that makes of the hair sample though, evidence wise :shrug:

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
 

the latest on sky news on line says there was so much hair in the boot it could have only come from her body and also it's not blood they found in the boot - it's bodily fluid.
