Much more appropriate to consider how quickly Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman were discovered.

Answer me these:
What did the McCanns have to lose by coming clean and reporting an accidental death?
What did the McCanns have to gain by murdering their daughter and disposing of her body?

1) Somone has already said, The could face potential child neglect charges which if found guilty could resort to them serviing a custodial sentence in a Portugese prison and losing the rest of their children

2) Who truly knows how the mind of a murderer works ?

That's not true. No police enquiry has limitless resources. As an investigation proceeds, it focuses more effort on the more likely lines of enquiry. Not discounting and actively pursuing are not the same thing.
Wrong, wrong and wrong, If the need is seen fit then resources are made from across multiple forces until every line can be followed.
